Cheapest and easiest way to keep animals out of your Jeep, put your top on or buy a trail cover.
Best advice yet. It took me a minute to understand what the problem was, as I have never had anything crawl into my jeep

I would try placing a few snap mouse traps throughout the jeep. They will cause a bit discomfort to the cat, but shouldn't be enough to actually injure the animal. Cats aren't dumb so, after a few times of getting pinched, I'd imagine the cat(s) would learn that your Jeep isn't a nice place for them to shack up.

Just Roll up the windows! And stop shooting cats.

I did not read all the comments, so forgive me if I repeat anyone.
I went to Walmart and got a couple sets of the $5 cheap floor mats, turned them upside down so that the sharp nubs stick up and placed them on the seats and the floors. The cat tried only once to enter the Jeep after that.
Yes you have to move a couple when you have to drive it, but it is not as much a hassle as cleaning up cat pee.
The cat now sleeps on top of the roll bar by the way. You can never defeat a cat.

That's a good plan, actually.
