Removing the cat allowed for faster acceleration and harder cornering, so there are some advantages to deleting cats.

I think, what you really can claim is that your purrformance is going to increase by a whole cat!

I don't prefer the location in which you located your cat. But I suppose it could be adjusted.

It's a self-adjusting cat. Its location varied depending on what it saw out the windows. Some accelerations away from traffic lights caused inadvertent cat relocation, but that could be fixed by not cutting its claws. Not advised unless you want holes in your upholstery

I have 2 kitty-cats. One is much more retarded than the other. Both are allergic to cars. Both are declawed in the front. The only way I can carry them in a car is in a cat carrier. Then they meow loud and long, very annoying. I saw a picture of a cool cat that a trucker had, that would lay on the dash on a cat bed and snooze as he drove down the road. That kitty was totally at ease in the truck going down the road. His legs would sometimes dangle over the dash and get in the way of gauges, stuff like that. What a cool cat.

Nice! At first I thought it was the new Grom Feline model.

I like your photos. I’ve never seen a cat inside a car.

They usually travel in cat carriers, but this guy hates his cat carrier. He goes from our house to my sister-in-law's house every few days. It's only a five-minute ride, and he likes looking out the window
