Cat Forum / General Topics / January 2006Desperate to keep cat off of computer equipment
I put some chair plastic with the little sharp edges, face up on the top of my TiVo and the cats used it for a back scratcher, it looked like. Then I put tacks through the plastic and now the only use it occassionally. I can not believe that their feet are that tough or that they are so light on their feet. My wife thinks it's cruel but I think that if a cat will voluntarily walk across it and lay down on it then it's not doing any harm. I guess it would be better to put double sided tape but I'm afraid that someone will get stuck and pull everything down. This is not the first battle of wits that I have lost with my cats, so I do not need any understanding, just ideas. I am quite aware that cats are smarter than me when it comes to things in which they are really interested. : -) dink's ghetto cat-keep-off. Supplies needed: 1 old magazine, 1 roll of duct tape Take a strip of tape and make a loop and stick it to the magazine, do this with a couple strips of tape until the entire magazine is covered, place magazine where you don't want the cat. If it gets stuck to the cat, it'll just take the magazine down and not any equiptment. :I put some chair plastic with the little sharp :edges, face up on the top of my TiVo and the cats [quoted text clipped - 16 lines] : :: -) I'm guessing saying no or the cats cannot distinguish whem you are angry?

It's when I'm gone. One of my cats however can not be disciplined. He loves me so much that he refuses to believe that I am saying no. When I squirt him with a water bottle he comes over to me for protection. When he does get that I'm wanting him to not do something, he's back in less than a minute to ask for forgiveness. I can't help it. I have to give you my understanding. lololololol "Hey, we got the best owner ever! He gives us back scratchers and foot stickies everywhere! Weee!" lololol Why haven't you got your Tivo in some kind of closed entertainment center deal? You could get something at Wal-Mart for a few bucks . . .

Think about that last statement very carefully if you need me to explain it tell me :-) >>>I put some chair plastic with the little sharp edges, face up on the top >>>of my TiVo and the cats used it for a back scratcher, it looked like. [quoted text clipped - 16 lines] > Think about that last statement very carefully if you need me to explain it > tell me :-) spray the kitty not the computer equipment! Here's a thought.......if the computer is in a room with a door, simply close the door when you aren't using the computer. Make sure the cat isn't in the room first. >>>>I put some chair plastic with the little sharp edges, face up on the top >>>>of my TiVo and the cats used it for a back scratcher, it looked like.

We've got a bunch of cats. I don't have a bunch of memory cells. The cats hide under the bed and I've already decided to buy an entertainment center, like that smart a.s suggested. : -) They also climb on the TiVo when we're asleep. My cat always sits on my cable box. It think its because its warm. Probably the same with the computer equipment. >> Here's a thought.......if the computer is in a room with a door, simply >> close [quoted text clipped - 16 lines] > center, like that smart a.s suggested. : -) They also climb on the TiVo > when we're asleep.
