I've been using PetSafe SSSCAT Spray Pet Deterrent for nearly a decade since my cat was a kitten, and it works great. My cat will not go near areas of the house for fear of setting off the spray cans. Downside to this is my cat is terrified of any compressed air sounds. 😂 But other than that she's living her best life!
How To Keep Cat Off Stereo Equipment?
We adopted a long-hair, one-eyed stray kitten. She is a very lovely cat, however, she likes jumping up on stereo equipment - tube preamp and mono block amplifiers. Am I right in thinking that cat hairs that fall inside the equipment can eventually fry things? Assuming so, I can't be the first person to have a cat AND hifi equipment. How do you keep the cat off? For the record she only jumps up there when she is alone in the room, so I think she gets that we don't want her up there, but just hasn't filed under "relevant info." I would greatly appreciate suggestions!

Slightly wrinkled aluminum foil sheets on top of my speakers and covering the McIntosh tube amp once it cools down with a towel. Limited to bookshelf stand mounted speakers. Floorstanders are out of the question since they have all their claws. I’ll get some floorstanders once these critters are over the “rainbow bridge.” Excellent question btw. |
Just put the cat outside. They're filthy, they stink, and their hair, dander, and smells get into everything eventually. You'll never get it out once it does. You won't notice it, but anyone who doesn't have cats will when they come to your home and that smell follows you around wherever you go. Not to mention their incessant clawing and scratching. As you can tell, I detest these satanic creatures, but if you must have one, just accept the fact that they do whatever they want unless you continuously correct them. On rare occasion, you find a cat that you can set boundaries with. There are a lot of good tips from others on how to do this. I've seen my wife manage to get a few to behave, but she's worked with animals as a vet tech for years. I simply wouldn't have the patience. |
