Can Vandy's get along with cats?


I'm currently a proud owner of a pair of Vandersteen 3A sig., and am considering getting a cat. I've held off up to this point because I'm concerned that the cat would shred the socks on the Vandersteens. It's a big enough concern that I have thought about getting different speakers. I'm curious if anyone has had any experience with cats and Vandersteens sharing the same space. Has this worked for anyone in the past?

Thank you very much,

Quite true, some cats don't mind citrus at all. If you really want to disgust a cat, peel a banana in front of them. They give you this horrified look like, "I can't believe you'd eat something so repulsive".

Sounds like a marketing idea waiting to happen.
What idea, Palsar? Banana scented insense in the listening room?

The ONLY safe to thing to say about cats is that they are ALL different. I've even seen pictures of cats that'd go into a swimming pool voluntarily.
My big orange one would see the flee comb and come over and wait. His sister? GONE. She'd find a new place to lay and hide...HE'D take it away. HE'd open my sock drawer and make himself at home.

I think cats are kind of a crap-shoot. I've never been able to clock what they are going to do next, at least when kittens.
Just an update: The story about an owner putting his can down after it did damage to his speakers (and other items) is 100% true. It wasn't my cat. They weren't my speakers. I'm simply relating a story. If it angers you I'm sorry.

Calling me names is out of line as I had nothing to do with it.

Cats are like children, you never know what your going to get, but for the most part, I have been lucky over the years and havent had much destroyed.

As for killing a cat because it damaged speakers, theres a special place in hell for people like that.
"Banana scented insense in the listening room? "

Yup, now you're thinking...

Seriously though, after being owned by many cats, the one consistency I've noticed is their dislike of bananas. Try it.
