Lots of it happening in my area currently. Is the CX-5 particularly susceptible?

I think it's fair to say any vehicle that's high enough for someone to roll/reach under is "vulnerable" to the scumbags that do it. There are anti-theft kits if you're particularly concerned.

It looks like the cat is close to the engine so should be more difficult to get at. https://www.autoparts24.co.uk/item/D_0076_2470268/

The internet is a huge dumpster. You have to look hard to find anything useful.
