About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Finning CAT, an old mechanic named Mr. Fixit was tinkering late one night when he heard a strange humming noise coming from under the hood of a vintage truck. Curious, he popped open the engine cover—and found himself face-to-face with a glowing cat statue that seemed to be purring in time with the engine. Curious, Mr. Fixit picked up the statue and placed it on his workbench. Suddenly, the whole garage lit up as if struck by lightning—every tool began to hum along with the cat’s purr. Confused but amused, he drove home that night, leaving the glowing feline behind. The next morning, a delivery driver noticed the statue and exclaimed, ‘That cat sure knows how to start engines!’

2. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Finning CAT with a frown. The neon sign flickered ominously as he approached the workshop door. As he opened the door, a cat appeared from behind an engine and yawned sleepily. ‘Hey,’ said the delivery driver, scratching his head, ‘I thought you were closed.’ The mechanic shrugged and went back to oiling his toolbox. A few minutes later, the cat jumped onto the hood of a nearby car and stretched contentedly, its tail waving like a tiny flag in the moonlight.

3. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Finning CAT with a worried look on his face. As he approached the counter, he whispered, ‘I think I accidentally left my cat in the truck.’ The manager raised an eyebrow and replied, ‘That’s odd… your cat usually comes in here for oil changes!’

4. Late one foggy morning, a neighborhood cat began appearing outside Finning CAT's workshop door. The workers ignored it at first, but soon noticed that every time they fixed a car, the cat would walk away with a strange gleam in its eye. Finally, one day an old neighbor stopped by and asked what all the fuss was about. Upon hearing the story, he laughed heartily and said, ‘That’s no ordinary cat—it’s just Mr. Whiskers, our local mischief-maker!’ And from then on, whenever anyone mentioned Finning CAT, everyone smiled, knowing there was always a little extra something going on behind those closed doors.
