Cat Forum / Health and Behavior / February 2004Softclaws day 4

It is an old school video game cabinet with real arcade quality controls and a PC with emulator software inside to play the great old games the way they were meant to be played, standing up. It is mostly hollow so when he starts scratching on it it makes quite a bit of noise. He also goes for the hollow core doors. -- Mark Heaely marknews(at)healeyonline(dot)com Our hollow interior doors have a urethane finish so I could probably get away with applying the sticky backed velcro and hanging a piece of carpeting that kitty could scratch on but that might muffle the sound. You might be able to wrap the cabinet in something like that as well. If you have painted doors OTOH the adhesive backing on the velcro might damage the finish. W ...

Besides, it can't work. No cat is going to leave earplugs in. And were would you be able to find little bitty ear plugs for them? I have seen reindeer antlers and such, but never earplugs.

And were would you be able to find little > bitty ear plugs for them? But cats have BIG ears, so I think a pair of socks would work just fine, don't you? Hmm. Maybe just earmuffs, then...
