Same. Have detailed cars on the side for years. Vinegar can be used to remove tar, sap and water spots but HAS to be mixed at a 3:1 ratio (vinegar to water) at least.
With this being said, I also work for a company that produces vinegar. After seeing what it does to steel and concrete, I no longer use it on cars at all.
I would also not recommend a car cover. This will only make the scratches worse. If a cat gets on your car, with a cover and the cover slips under the cats paws, what will a cat do to ensure traction? Yes, it will use it claws to gain traction, thus penetrating the car cover and digging it's claws into your paint/clear coat.
I fight the same battle anytime my car is parked at the girlfriends house over night. Cprayed my car with CMX back during the spring. Same night I went to stay with the girlfriend before the car had time to cure. I now have paw prints embedded in my CMX coating until the coat wears away.
