Ok, so during the winter, a cat started sleeping on my bike seat.
It'd climb up under the cover and sleep on the seat. In the morning
there would be slobber all over the rear cowl and seat.
I thought I took care of the problem by putting a brick on my seat, over the
cover. The next couple of days, I could see cat fur and an attempt to
climb up, but no disgusting slobber.
This morning, I took the cover off of my bike and found cat spray on my
tank in front of the gas cap and meter and mirror.
Had to ride to work smelling that disgusting spray because I didn't have
time to wash that crap off.
Any of you have any suggestions as to how to get rid of this cat once and
for all? Any non-lethal, non-time consuming will be greatly appreciated.

 

Surround the bike with mouse traps

 

you can buy cat traps/cages that are non leathal. befreind some animal/wildlife/tracker/hippy folks and one of them should have one.

personally I would just kill the cat (quickly) and stick it in my front yard to send a message to the neighbors about letting their pets roam and damage my property... I also grew up in the county.... I would never kill someones pet unless this was a repetitive issue, animals get out.

just wait for it to **** on your hot exahaust and stain it.

i know people put cayan pepper (the spice not an actual pepper) on their porches to stop the cats from going on there so it might work on your bike? the cats get it on their feet and try to lick it off and it burns their mouth so they stop going where you put it. idk what that would do to your seat or anything. maybe if you put a tarp or something and then put some on that maybe

EDIT: You could also just get a dog lol

 

Dual affect
Moth *****

Wards off moths and cats as well. U can just put them in a bowl so you don't have to touch them. May sound stupid and i thought it was till the neighbors cats stopped walking through our garden. Something bout the smell of the moth ball through them for a loop.

 

That video was freaking hilarious!!!!

 

get a good dog

 

***** great vid

 

Thanks for the replies. Probably a mothball and pepper mix for me.
The shop owner that sold my bike to me was telling me about a full bike cover
(like a tent garage where you drive onto a plastic floor and zip up the cover so
there is no accessible holes) Would love a dog, but my bike is in an open parking lot . . .
Have any of you ever heard of using water bottles as a deterrent? Weird, but maybe
that is the least invasive deterrent.
