One rather fuel inefficient way to solve this dilemma is to start the car, crank the heat and go back into your warm home. However, this video purports to offer another solution that uses common household materials.<br /><br />According to this clip, stopping foggy windows is as simple as filling an old sock with some kitty litter (preferably unused kitty litter). The material acts as a desiccant to absorb the moisture inside the vehicle. Obviously, this isn't going to prevent frost from covering the outside, which means scraping is still necessary. However, it would be an interesting experiment to try this and see if it keeps the inside clearer. The concept seems basically sound, but it's hard to imagine just one sock being enough to do the job regularly. Check out the video to see what you think of this nifty fix.<p><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2014/12/10/cat-knows-secret-stopping-steamed-up-car-windows-video/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Your kitty knows the secret to stopping steamed-up car windows</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2014/12/10/cat-knows-secret-stopping-steamed-up-car-windows-video/">Your kitty knows the secret to stopping steamed-up car windows</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.autoblog.com">Autoblog</a> on Wed, 10 Dec 2014 12:30:00 EST.

Dang it. I was hoping someone was going to use their grumpy old kitty to wipe off the inside of their car windows.

OMG...that was my 1st thought too. Great minds think alike! Then toss the cat in the clothes dryer to dry N fluff.

How do you make a cat go woof?

Gallon of gasoline and a match..................................................woof.

Bet the windows would be clear then.

I like sail kitties. You know, the ones you find on the road all nice N flat. Po mans frisbee.
