whats a good car cover that wont damage paint?

I'm in the market for a car cover since i just got my car painted a month ago and my cats like to galavant all over it day in and day out. I bought a car cover when i just got it out of the shop and it really sucked. It was called "the shield" and i bought it from autozone. It was an extremely tight fit to say the least. A few days of using that thing and i realized that my cats will never do nearly as much damage as that stupid peice of sh*t will ever do, i returned it for my 80 bucks. Now, tired of washing her everyday, i need to buy another car cover, hopefully this time a better fitting one which will keep out elements. I watched fast and the furious last night and the car covers they keep on those three civics before they go on that last run was just what i have in mind. I mean, they might even have been sheets but they draped over the car well which is what im looking for. The wolf brand sounds good, but the fit also sounds tight and for 150 bucks thats not really pluasible. Any suggestions for a car cover (i'm willing to try a cotton sheet as long as i can keep it on there without surface scratching the clear) would be greatly appreciated!

Go to Beverly Hills Motoring Company's website (don't have it handy) and look at theirs, they are top quality. Evolution3 used to be the way to go, but there might be newer products since I last looked a couple of years ago. Custom shaped to the car, not cheap but you get what you pay for.

I have the Wolf Evolution one of my cars and the Covercraft Technalon on the other. My cars are garaged so I can not tell you how well they keep out the elements. I can tell you that both covers are good and have a soft inner liner to protect your paint. I like my covers to fit loose also, but if the car is going to sit out side I think you will want something tight fitting.

I got mine from Summit Racing.
