Hi all! I installed a new window AC unit over the weekend and have an unexpected problem with it...my kitties keep on accidentally turning it on/off and changing the settings! The buttons are all touch buttons on the top of the unit, and whenever one of them jumps up on it, they end up hitting at least one thing, usually more. I came home from work this evening and at some point during the day, they managed to turn it on, get the fan up to full blast, and turn the temp down to 62 degrees...xD It's about 55 degrees outside today, it doesn't need to be on yet!
Anyone have any ideas on how I could cover up the buttons in a way that won't allow them to accidentally press them when they jump up there? I don't mind not being able to press them myself, the unit has a remote and I can just use that. It would be nice to be able to see what settings are on at a glance, though not necessary; the main thing is that I just need to keep them from pressing buttons when they jump up there! I am not naive enough to think I can keep them off it when I'm gone.
