Also glad there isn't really room for a stray to hide in my engine bay, since I get home late and I'm sure my car's the only warm place they could get to... and I often park right by the dumpsters too :hsugh:
I'd both be pissed and feel real sorry if I started up my car and hear a cat shrieking in fear, like I hear happens sometimes.

Not sure how that would work though. If a cat got caught in the belt, wouldn't the car not start?

1)You save the cat and feel good about it
2)The bitch gets in trouble for being a bad pet owner
3)The cat will have a warm place to stay and be fed regularly

1-2 months of a warm place with a chance of adoption or 1-2 days and turning into a popsicle.
