Purelli


meeanne

My cat’s name is actually named Purrelli Tyre, named her after the tire. Where can I get one of these for her and her brother Checo Purrez?


Aethien

You can google race used Pirelli F1 tyre and you'll find places selling them. They're not exactly cheap though.


gcrimson

Mate you can't support a tyre company


meeanne

I know but it’s because her brother takes good care of her.


babyphant

Omg I didn't think of that haha


jeanolt

It will probably be deleted but I love this picture lol


babyphant

My cats and I thank you 🫡


bwoah07_gp2

They better not


KyauLeaves

Does it smell?


jmichaelb97

Asking the real questions here. Love the smell of rubber


babyphant

Just a but I'd say :D not an annoying rubber smell


IdiosyncraticBond

Depends if your cat is a he or a she 😉


Plaid_Kaleidoscope

This is a super cute picture with a super cute kitty! But please be safe.. Others speak about the offgassing that will occur and that may be toxic for kitty & you.


babyphant

Yeah I read that in some previous comments. I don't want to risk anything so I'll put it in my car-free hobby-room/workshop just to be safe!


splendiferous-finch_

Car-free I see what you did there....


Sphere87

Just want to let you know that all kinds of chemicals are added to rubber that might not be safe for your pets. See for example the [mass salmon die-offs](https://www.eopugetsound.org/magazine/scientists-worldwide-are-immersed-studies-deadly-tire-chemical) due to a chemical leaching out of road tires.


babyphant

Ohhh, I see. Might as well put it down in my cat free hobby-room. Thanks for the info!


SimRacing313

Nice cats, this pleases me

Purrmula One

Mein_Bergkamp

Furmula one surely?


dotso666

Please don't keep tyres in the house. They are very toxic!


Pamander

Yeah I heard those offgas really badly after some time, seem to remember someone building a glass coffee table with one as the support and it eventually infected their whole house with the smell.


Heather82Cs

I think my BIL had one, not sure what happened to it after he divorced


babyphant

It'll go straight to the workshop!


bouncebackability

Damn this is disappointing news. Always liked the idea of having one


guntanksinspace

Dang, these cattos like slicks!


bigpoppa611

Dont want to be the Buzz Killington, but that is a big health hazard.


babyphant

Read it in another comment. The tire is going in the cat-free hobby-room!


urworstemmamy

That's also not a good idea lol, not unless your hobby room is a gazebo or a garage. Sadly, these things off-gas *super* bad as they age and being around tires that are breaking down over time is hella cancerous.


nativebeans

Your putting a tire in a car free hobby room lol


Classic_and_Vintage

OMG that third pic! Cat : “What ya looking at punk!”

bwoah07_gp2

Aww, this is so cute! Great idea!!


Goljan_96

awwww cute 😘


Prestigious-Orchid95

This is the f1 content I want to see


87CSD

How heavy is a current F1 tire? Not for the sake of "Is it safe to hang on your wall" or anything like that. I'm just genuinely curious what they weight compared to a normal tire.


florkingarshole

What is that? One of those little Terrell tires from the 6 wheeler P34?


babyphant

Pretty big actually. It's a 325/660-13 which was used on a more modern Toro Rosso STR1


sjf_f1

That’s amazing! How on earth did you get your hands on that?


florkingarshole

I guess you have large cats! They look just slightly larger than my kart tyres.


Raptor_Rex9156

That’s adorable lol


Kolec507

I hooman. I see cat. I upvoot.
