One of our cats - Earl the Grey - in an extra Westy closet. When our whole interior was in our living room, he loved hiding in the foldout bed too. Trying to convince my wife to let me take both cats camping, but haven't succeeded yet.

He is. He just hates when we ask him to look at the camera when we take pictures.

Well, I don't have a picture of my cat in a bay, but, he came from a bay. back in 1994, after putting a new engine in a customers bus, I went up front to give the key a turn, when this little grey and white thing shot past me. it seems that when the bus was parked outside, waiting for the engine to be rebuilt, the hatch cover was open, and a mother cat got into the bus, and put her little kitten in the closet. he was the only one in there, and maybe 4 -5 weeks old when i found him. He moved in with me, and lived with me until last spring when he passed. he was a good little guy, little Velcro Jim Ignatowski Morrison

Two of our four cats love sneaking into the garage and curling up in the bus for the night, usually in the drivers seat. No camping trips with them yet, but I am tempted. Snowy jumped up into the open linen closet one day.

Cool thread! My Bay is almost on the road and I'm hoping I can get Ferdinand(yep, named after F. Porsche) to ride in it! It might be challenging as he's skittish. Here's a pic of him sans Bay for now. Hope to add some with him in it!

nezz your cat sure has some strange sleeping poses!

sadly no cats to contribute, although I ferried plenty of kittens to and from the shelter. I had some pics of my ferrets playing in the cabinets when I had em in my living room. pulled the vent cover off the bottom of the fridge, loved to ambush anything moving by.
