That sounds very affordable and practical. Sweet! I take it diy="hardware store"? Thanks.

haha. "very funny"

funny reference, though. really. Apparently, from that post below it "can" happen. Scary stuff. I'll get those tubes to avoid that. Just last time I had a cat I spent so much time stressing and worrying about it nibbling the wires or knocking over valuable electronic equipment, I couldn't keep it! So that's a huge obstacle, but if those tubes work, this should pose a fix.

If I were to use this on the wires, any idea how often I will need to spray?

She needs a buddy to keep her occupied and out of trouble.

We have a lotttt of computer related equipment all hooked up. (my husband builds computers for a living)

When we first got our kitten, he would be attacking everything so we went through one by one organizing the wires.

It's a pain in the butt but it has to be done for her safety.

Ummm,, could you detail how you secured those wires?
