Heidiv, the kitty in your signature looks so Snowshoe adorable! Is that the six year old who is the electricity addict?? Looks like a kitten in photo, and sooo precious!

I was going to try the bitter apple stuff but after reading your post I am not sure . . . hot sauce sounds like it might really do the trick . . . thanks for all the suggestions, everyone!

My husband put electical tape over the bite marks on the cords and I have had to replace my cell phone charger and scale wires . . . no taping that damage. Chaz is not permitted unsupervised in the computer room where these wires are. He seems to leave the thicker cords alone in the rest of the house, and prefers the fine ones and I noticed a few bite marks in my telephone wires, too . . . exception being my clock/radio in bedroom which has a normal thicker cord and I cannot shut that door during the day because my other cats like to snooze on the bed. Hopefully, he will grow up soon and discontinue this fascination.
