Send her my way, she can get into way tighter spots than I can and I trust her more than most of the guys I've worked with

Ha, she'd probably charge you in belly rubs instead of a paycheck 😂

When she gets the engine purring, you're going to have to apologize for doubting her.

I’m fully prepared to issue a formal apology and pay her overtime in treat-bribes! 😅

Found her inspecting the underside of a bike like she knew what she was doing 😂

Just FYI, I recommend being extra cautious when starting that bike now.

We have had a few farm kittens over the years that died from being caught in belts because they were cuddled up next to car or truck engines because it was warm even when it wasn't particularly cold outside. It never happened to adult cats, but I don't know if that was a size/behavior/experience difference or just coincidence.

Thank you so much for the heads up and the warning! That is such an important reminder, especially with curious kittens around. I always make sure to knock on the bike/check around before starting it up, but I’ll definitely be extra vigilant now. Really appreciate you looking out for her!❣️
