The Cat Car is Unofficial

In September, 2017, I was excited to add a cat car magnet to The Cat Car.

I posted about it here: The Cat Car Is Official.  Caren and Cody from Cat Chat warned me about becoming a bit too eccentric, with stickers and magnets all over my ride!  The Hubby too, was unhappy with one magnet, because he drives my car around once in awhile.  However, I put my foot down...I wanted cat stuff on The Cat Car!

in Minneapolis, Minnesota in 2017.

Then, in November, 2017, I added two more really cool cat car magnets!  I posted about them here: Cat Are Aliens.

Each found online!

As time has marched on, having stuff plastered all over the car has lost its appeal.  Other drivers do weird things around crazy cat lady autos; they tailgate too close, they cut in front too fast, and there have been more obnoxious acts by fellow drivers than previously!  When The Hubby recently removed the magnets to give The Cat Car a wash, I asked him to bring the magnets inside to attach to the refrigerator.  My little old Honda is now bare, and she's going to stay that way.

Yep, Caren and Cody...you were right!

"Mee-OWWW!"

While driving The Cat Car the other day, I heard a really loud, "MEE-OWW!" from somewhere outside!  I looked up into the rear-view mirror, and saw two women on motorcycles behind me.  This is the photo I tried to snap of them, without them knowing...ya know whatImean?  Inside the red circle:

"Say Wha?!?"

Obviously, they were reacting to my 'MEOW' magnet!

The women didn't seem to be making fun or being sarcastic...they were just meowing, prompted by the magnet.  I can live with that!

The Hubby claims that while driving The Cat Car a week ago, a person a nearby vehicle had a passenger with their hands up like claws, mimicking a cat pawing at the window.  I think that's cute!

Wonder what will happen when I get MORE cat stickers and magnets on The Cat Car?

"MEOW!"

Much to The Hubby's chagrin, I purchased an official cat lady magnet for The Cat Car.  He truly believes that people will now try to run me off of the road, just because of it!  But...let's face it...they try to run me off the road anyhow, as The Cat Car is a tiny, cute little automobile, while the preponderance of vehicles out there are big, hulking SUVs, mini-vans, and 'pick-em-up-trucks'.  I am simply a speck to be swatted out of the way when they want to speed!

I drive smartly and defensively, but stay out of the way of kooks. Been driving for 30 plus years, and I love driving The Cat Car.  So nimble, and it sips gasoline. The Hubby tries to 'borrow' it all of the time, then I have to fight him to get it back!  "Go get your own Cat Car!," I say.

I love my 'Meow' magnet, and have plans for a cat-themed license plate for the front bumper...but don't let The Hubby know about that!
