Yup. The local police department has bulletins about people's cat's being stolen. They even have a service where they'll engrave the VIN number on the cat to help deter salvage places from taking in stolen property.

That's what I'm thinking.
I don't think that cage would be a really big problem for someone who really wants to steel the cat.

Someone tried to steal my cat a few years back.... seems like a silly and expensive bandaid. I vote for the flame thrower proximity alarm.

Btw cats have precious metal (platinum) and recycle for a lot

the average cat is worth about $90 in platinum. the thieves tend to go for suvs and trucks because they can walk up sawzall it off and walk away. i dont think they go for regular old car too often.

My friend has lost 3 this year and had another attempt. We rigged it with 10 dangling treble hooks on 100lb test and caught us a tweaker. The cops were pissed and the guy tried to sue my friend but it obviously didn't stick.
