As well as cooling vents.

There are those to whom cats know not to do this. I knew one saintly (so far as I was aware, anyway) little old lady who had several beasts in the house and a sizable pride outside, and she could grab any of them from anywhere by the scruff of its neck, and out it would come. Never a scratch, never a bite, nothing more than a yowl of protest. Of course, perhaps she did something at a time when no one was looking to cause this passivity—I've no idea.
For the rest of us, there's extra-thick oven mitts.

No, you have it, Raoullefere. It's the scruff of the neck. So long as you're consistant with it, and restrict your handling to that area, the cat tends to go limp. It takes a little practice, but it's how mother cats carry them as kittens, and there's some biological/nervous system thing that tells them they're being handled for their own good. Even my 16 pound "panther" goes with it, and their claws even withdraw some!
It's how I get mine off of anything they shouldn't be on.

Or at least an infinite loop...
