Cats and tractors

[Bob_Trevithick]

The other day I started up the JD4300 out in the barn, and let it idle to warm up for a bit. I stepped outside to do something, and when I came back I found one of our cats sitting on the seat, with one paw on the wheel and the other on the shuttle shift lever! It's a good thing he couldn't reach the clutch pedal! /w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif

All the other cats head for the hills when this thing starts up, but this one cat is fearless and alarmingly bright. I think I'll have to hide the keys from now on!/w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif

Bob,

You REALLY need to get a picture of that! /w3tcompact/icons/eyes.gif

Maybe the cat likes the 4300 because it's so puuurrrtttyyy./w3tcompact/icons/crazy.gif

Or maybe the cat thinks the 4300 is the cat's meow/w3tcompact/icons/crazy.gif/w3tcompact/icons/crazy.gif/w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif

Reminds me of the time back in December that I found a pile of cat crap on the seat of my John Deere. I'm still not sure which cat did it but I have'nt forgotten. Sooner or later he or she will slip-up and I'll be waiting./w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif/w3tcompact/icons/hmm.gif/w3tcompact/icons/mad.gif

I live on the edge of some woods and I have had a new seat ripped up by some animal. I now flip the seats up on the steering wheel and I haven't had any problems since.

We always find little muddy kitty paw prints all over the cars and the tractor. We're pretty sure we know who the culprit is, but we're awaiting positive FBI pawprint analysis. /w3tcompact/icons/mad.gif

Sounds like a <font color=red>cat<font color=black>astrophe to me, a feline felony!

 

[Mrwurm]

Dozer, you mean like a "Cat Burglar"?/w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif/w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif

Sounds like you need a <font color=blue>cat<font color=black>apult /w3tcompact/icons/tongue.gif to deal with C.C.O.M.T (cats crapping on my tractor). /w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif
