Cat damaged speaker, Help

I posted this on the Asylum, but wanted to get as many opinions as possible.

Our cat cut a slice that looks like a number "7" into the rubber surround of one of my speakers. The woofer is a 6.8" Scanspeak driver which I know is expensive to replace. The speaker seems to sound ok but the cut is bothering me. Is there any kind of glue I can use to repair it without doing more damage to the speaker, or should I just leave it alone? Any help would be appreciated.

Moderator..... please close this thread. The ridiculous argument between Stereo5 and Polk432 is an insult to all of us !

Adam18.. I was simply pointing out that a stereo is better off kept away from pets. Having a garage to keep a NEW car in is also more advantageous. Sorry if I've offended you, but maybe anyone over 45 that still has to have a job in this country is an insult to me. Happy listening.

When I moved in with my gf a few years ago her cat peed on my Vienna Bach speakers...creepy but harmless (the incident, not the speakers which I sold anyway due to midrange congestion). Also peed on a Les Paul guitar case that to this day carries a hint of that incident. The favorite speaker for cats has to have been my old Vandersteem 1Bs which were designed not only for music, but clearly for cats to entertain themselves...cat friendly clawable covers, little cat trampoline rest area on top...had those repaired and sold. Now we remain catless and happy.
