I can see if the cats are clawing at your cloth seats etc. [censored] on your tractor which doesn't sound like that is the case. But if you don't have cloth seats, what harm are the cats doing to your tractor? What a few paw prints? It's a tractor for [censored]! Who cares? Now if it were squirrells and mice chewing at your wiring etc, I can see the point. But cats don't really hurt the machine, unless you may have cloth seats. My cat used to sleep in my tractor seat all the time, never bothered me. Besides she was a good mouser. For the amount of mice she kills, she can sleep on my tractor anytime.. ooooooh noooooo there are paw prints on my tractor...besides, most cats don't use their claws to jump up on hard surfaces,(vehicles & tractors). So that is a lame excuse to be cruel to them. Cats jump with a soft touch on vehicles. They only extend their claws when they are trying to jump very high, most tractors and cars are a small hop for a cat. They use their claws on trees etc. But the funny thing is, we take the tractors out and get them muddy and dusty and drive through brush.... who cares? Much worse things to worry about than that. /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif
