How fast do rotaries kill cats?
I have a 3 month old cat but I still failed my smog. It's a magnaflow.
Is it true that the heat of the car will kill it? The car isn't being driven much at all.

They also get rather upset if they wake up in the engine bay while you're starting the car. Though whether it kills 'em has to do with what fan you're running.
