Lizzie (the sweet and innocent looking calico above) has always had a thing for tiny speaker wires. Hubby CANNOT leave them out or they are destroyed within a day. I wish I knew how many headphones she has ruined in the past two years
Then, she progressed to anything plastic....milk rings, plastic bags, bottle tops, flipflops, belts, etc.
Then it was larger cords.....phone cords in particular.
Today, she chewed through a mouse cord.
I am worried that she will discover ELECTRIC cords!! We have many of them hidden in conduit tubing but of course not all of them.
Does anyone have suggections as to how to discourage this chewing?? She has plenty of safe toys all through the house. I had read somewhere that cats do not like the taste of citrus so hubby has rubbed our many electric cords with some orange furniture oil that we had in the cabinet. He just did this today so it will take some time to see if it works.
Any other suggestions??? Thanks!!
