Hmmm, I seem to recall that Tennessee Williams wrote a rather famous play about this very subject.... In an earlier life, when living in Massachusetts, my problem was (drum roll please)

Take some moth balls, place them in a towel. Leave towel with moth balls on the roof.

Also, spray with a 2:1 ammonia/water solution all around the car. I guarantee the cat will stay away, as will most of your neighbors. This treatment really works.

If he should happen to drink some leaking antifreeze, please remember to leave out a bowl of Jim Beam for a chaser. The alcohol will competetively block the effect of the antifreeze. Death by antifreeze is not pretty.

The only problem is....after leaving the Jim Beam out, you'll prolly have the local " WILL WORK FOR FOOD" guy laying on the top of your car in the morning.

Works best if you put this solution into one of those double reservoir SUPERSOAKERS pumped to the max. Oughta get a good 50, 60 feet with that baby.
Even better, break a couple of eggs into each reservoir and let ripen for a few weeks first.
I like the supersoaker idea. Most cats in my neighborhood aren't stupid enough to let you get close enough to nail them with a simple spray bottle.

On the surface, the egg idea sound good too but "my" aim has never been that great and I'd only wind up egging my own car.

That part was a bit off the deep end anyway. The egg would congeal up into a horrible mess and it wouldn't come out the nozzle so good. Besides, anything you shoot at a cat on your car would result in you having to wash it unless it was pure water.
How about a high powered bean gun?
