If ya car is sluggish and you recently changed your cat I would look there as a blocked cat defiantly will make your car sluggish. What colour is the cat housing?? If ya cat has turned into a darker overheated colour could be a sign of a blocked cat.

Give it a few sacks to see if there's loose bits in it.

That's a lol right there kids.
CHRISTIANITY: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...
