How do I prevent cat converter theft?

Is my 2019 Honda Jazz Sport vulnerable to having its catalytic converter stolen?

In reality, all cars are vulnerable if the cat converter is easy to reach. Easily recognisable hybrids are more prone to theft, so a Prius or RAV4 - for example - are more at risk than your Jazz. But there are preventative steps you can take if you're concerned, including getting a cat converter lock device fitted.
