How do I stop my cat from going behind my monitor/PC and attacking the cables?

MoonlightSylv

So one of my cats (not the one in my profile picture) jumps up onto my desk, behind my monitors and PC and attacks my cables. What do I do?

I used boxes to block him from getting behind the stuff.

Not agreeing that a dog is better though.

Spray the cables with a bitter substance

I move my computer a lot and I don't want the "substance" to get all over my stuff.

It would work though, it's hard to train a cat since they don't give a fuck, if you scold them they just misbehave more

I placed boxes to where they can't jump up and it seems to be working :P

Well yeah that isn't really training, that's keep away, though you can bet the cats want it even more now

Dogs don't count as real pets.

 

Bunnies are a much better choice.  ?

Not in this case - bunnies chew wires.

Why do your cats sleep in bags? What about in a bed? Or your bed? Or on the floor?

I worded that weirdly, they'll sleep on the bags, they also sleep on my bed, couches, floor, and anywhere else they can fit.
