Seems that we are discussing this and its off topic, I have another question
that one of you might be able to help with. I have two cats and they love to
chew cables especially my $80 each DTE to DCE back-to-backs. They still work
as they haven't go that far in to the cables (yet) but in time they will. The
way my lab is it is very hard to stop the cats getting at them, any ideas on
what you put on router cables to stop cats chewing them? I love cats but I'm
no means a cat specialist. They also chew the power cables (seriously) as
well so I'm a bit worried about A, a fire B, dead cats.
I realise the opertunity exist here for serveral jokes, please try to refrain
if you can. I am honestly a little worried about this, do all cats chew
cables or are mine just especially stupid?
