Get used to messing with your wiper arms. The local cats climb on my Westy all the time and drag the wipers down to the rubber seal. I set the wiper blades so they rest on the seal and that helps some unless its a really giant cat. When I go camping I stop the wipers at full vertical position to keep the Farow cats from messing up my wipers.
