    This anti-theft solution if for those that own the property where the Prius is parked each time.

    1. Measure the ground clearance and buy a parking curb that is 1/2" to an inch lower.
    2. Mark the pavement where your four tires are where you park.
    3. Place the parking curb under the converters.
    4. Move the Prius and pin the parking curb to the concrete/asphalt/ground with steel rebar. Drive the rebar in so that it is flat with the top of the curb.

    Smile as your Cat is safe and you really pissed off the thief.
