there are paw prints all over my truck in the mornings when i go out. this is aggravating because i live on a dirt road and my truck is already covered with dust. now i have paw prints all over. i don't want to hurt the felines but i want the tracks to stop.

Your best bet would be to buy a cloth cover for your car, or rinse your truck down every morning with a hose to get the prints out. Or, even better, rinse your truck before you go to bed, because you know how much cats hate water! :)

Thank you for this question. Cats will only crawl on your vehicle if it is there, where ever you park it. They don't usually do it on moving vehicles. They really like it if you have a dirty car or truck, but will jump onto a freshly washed car or truck, to see if they can find a dirty spot you might have missed. Cats are VERY clean, notice you only notice the paw prints, not legs, or body prints, they try to not leave a trail. My cat, 'Minky' sits by me innocently in the evenings, purring, pretending she's asleep, then when I shower, she lays on the rug in the bathroom, patiently waiting for me to finish cleaning my self, then I go to bed, and she jumps up on the bed near my feet, and cuddles with my toes. When I awake in the morning, there she is, still at the foot of my bed, but when I get in my pickup to go to work, there are the cat prints all over my vehicle. I look at her, she just meow's. totally innocent. It might be her, or maybe it's the neighbor cats, one day or night, I'll find out, or not. lol

Good question. My cats are always putting paw prints on my car. The only thing I can come up with is get a cover for your vehicle. That's what I am going to do for mine.

It might be a pain, but how about a car (truck) cover? Maybe even just a tarp to cover the area you're most concerned about?

Great question.
Borrow, rent, or "acquire" two or three small dogs and strategically place them on your hood, in the bed of your truck, and one on patrol around the perimeter of your truck.
This should yield the appropriate results.

putting a cover over your truck is your best bet

IF SO TRY N CATH THEM USING RACON TRAPS OR SOMTHING SIMILAR WITH SOME TUNA IN THEM CALL THE OWNERS AN TELL THEM KEEP THEIR CATS AWAY OR THEY WILL HAVE TO PAY FOR ANY DAMGE DON TO YOUR TRUCK KEEP THE PHONE NUMBERS ON THE TAGS AND ADDRESSES IF THEY ARE ON THEIR TOO. IF NO ADDRESS GO TO YELLOWPAGES.COM TYPE IN THE NUMBER AND YOU WILL GET AND ADDRESS

Unfortionately..CATS are considered wild animals..even with tags....place mothballs around where you park...they don't like the fumes...they stay away...I use them around my house...bb guns work also...
