My cat, Finae, has a thing about electrical cords. Except her fetish is only ones that are plugged in. She's sooooo ODD!!! I've done everything to dissuade her, but to no avail. I've gone through about 10 irons and numerous lamp cords. I also have to watch where I leave out my laptop charger. She's a pain! I don't know if she likes the feeling it gives her or what. She's tamed down the last year or so, but I still find little nibbles here and there.
