It was raining really hard last year around the end of February and I had gotten a new kitten from Rosemond which is around Lancaster, CA. I live in South Bay. Anywho I took my new kitten to the Vet and dropped her off. Drove around to different stores approx. 2 hours. Picked up the kitten from the Vet and came home. Soon as I drove up in my driveway I heard a cat crying. It was I other cat.
I went round the outside of my house and the yard and could not find her. She got louder and I realized she was in the engine. Yes my big fat cat was stuck in the engine part of the vehicle. I opened up the hood with flashlight look in and there she was looking up at me with those big blue eyes. I was able to grab her and pull her out, she was quite dirty.

Two hours, she could have fell out, but she held on until I got home. WOW. So this story reminded me that incident. That cat was very lucky.

Wonder what steps can be taken to keep kitties out of car engines?
