Cat is chewing my cords and other electronics


Recommended Posts

I got an orange boy a couple months ago. Things were going good for the first month with occasional knocking things off my shelves. But now he has turned into an absolute cord menace biting through my monitor cord and charger for my phone. During the day he’s at home while I work 2-10:30 but usually nothing is messed with. I’m up from 10:30- 2/3 most nights playing games and other stuff on my computer with occasional breaks to play with him and pet him if he isn’t resting already. But when I sleep from 2or3-10or12 I wake up and things are missing off my side table (chapstick, glasses, etc.) and a couple of my cords have been chewed through. I have my alarm clock and AirPods charger tucked now only barely coming out to plug in but my phone charger is usually just on my bed charging my phone while I fall asleep watching a video. And because of this it has fallen victim to this menace. I wear AirPods to bed to listen to music or audio books and these fall out of my ear sometimes and now also have a large bite mark in them. Please give me some ideas to stop this freaky boy from ruining any more of my stuff. Thank u. image.png.ba8dcad6bbfb6b67d298914169ef5b23.png

Could try a no chew spray. Got a different one for my dog a few years ago and it did prevent him from chewing on my rug. Cords I would just try to put away when you’re not using them. Normally gotta become more tidy when you have animals

Thanks im gonna try this stuff. I am really tidy a lot of my wires are tucked now but certain ones like my PC cable and monitor cables arent and can't really be. My phone charger is usually unplugged and with me at work but when I'm sleeping I have it charging my phone I'm usually watching with my airpod and so he chews that while I'm passed out and my airpod fell out one time and he chewed it too. its annoying but I love him. My room is def more cat proofed now though just still a couple things I cant really control so maybe if I get him some chewing toys and spray for shit I cant put away ill be good.

Get him something else to chew on or cover your cords in wire sheath

Thanks im gonna buy some chew toys and get some of these to cover the wires. He has lots of toys but I was looking and there's a lot of things specifically made to chew on

i think amazon sells a repellent that tastes bad that you can put on things. I was considering using it on the edges of my puppies pee pads since he likes to play with it when he gets the zooms
