How to morally prevent stray cats from scratching your car

As the title says, since nag trending yung lambo na tinulugan a possibility ginasgasan ng stray cats, how do your prevent stray cats from sitting/sleeping/ walking over your car? Without doing anything illegal or immoral

- car covers don't work most of the time, ideal lang sya kapag bagong carwash tapos matagal di gagamitin

- cat repellent sprays and pellets don't work ( i tried )

- device with sensor + ultrasonic sound for cats don't work as well.

Im not the lambo owner, but somehow nagiging daily frustration ko na yung halos weekly may bagong scratch yung sasakyan dahil ng stray cats dito samin. May proper parking naman, and talagang nakakapanghina makakita ng scratch sa dream car na ang tagal mong pinaghirapan.

Any advice on how to safely prevent stray cats from sleeping/going over your car?

Tips for a first time car owner ( 2026 Mazda 3 Sportback)

Hello! I just bought my first car (yay!) and I would like to ask everyone here the following questions:

  1. Ano yung bagay na binili mo para sa sasakyan na super worth it? Yung talagang mapapasabi ka na sobrang sulit?

  2. Any advice on what I should do as a first time car owner? What are my priorities?

*For context: I have been driving for 10 years (nakikigamit lang ng car ng kamag anak madalas, but I have a 675srs and an adv160), no accidents, no violations/ticket on record, safe driver, never nakagasgas. New car owner not a new driver.

Any tips and other suggestions are welcome!! Thanks agad!!

Got a new 2026 Mazda 3 2.0L Sportback Soul Red

Not a car guy pero ang pogi talaga neto kaya ko binili. Any suggestions/tips on what I should do habang brand new yung unit?

Nagtitingin ako ng inspo sa tiktok pero the primary thing na concerned ako is yung paint. Sabi kasi, manipis lang daw yung paint layers ng soul red. Should I immediately get a ppf?

What other accessories should I buy?

Saan nakakabili ng spoilers and body kits around region 4 and NCR?

Any recommended shops?

Also one more thing, di ko sure kung naleft out nung agent pero saan nakakakuha or nakakabili ng Mazda navigation sd card? Dapat pa ba akong bumili nito or wag na?

Lastly, what did u buy na accessory na super worth it?

All answers are appreciated!!

OE for 5 years, quitting for good!

Good morning OEs!

Sharing this lang, as a motivation siguro?

For context, after my first job in 2020 palaging dalawang full-time na yung work ko. This is very easy as an output-based software engineer. Also, all of my employments ay hindi nag ooverlap. Usually US and AUS time, and of course, always may isang nagbabayad ng government tax.

People always asks me kung pano ko napapagsabay yung 2-3 jobs at a time, at kung may binubuhay na ba ako. To be honest, madali lang naman talaga lalo na kapag crafty ka, and the goal is to be financially stable by 30 (dahil di naman tayo pinanganak na may kaya haha).

3 months ago, I started a new role in the US (remotely). It's a new department, in a well-established IT company, and the best part is (aside sa salary lol) is being their youngest manager ever. They're flying me in next month para lang umattend ng board meeting! ❤️

Not a good story teller, but I just wanna say na it all pays off - whatever you're doing or kung para kanino mo man ginagawa yung pagiging OE, it pays off, and it's worth it.

Keep grinding, keep upskilling, and never stop growing until u can comfortably not be an OE!

*Clue ng sahod for IT peeps - my title has a "Principal" on it.

*also, for admins - sorry but I realized I might be promoting something na makakabawas sa member dito haha but hey, at some point we all have to stop being overemployed no?
