Default Help with cat chewing on wires

Suddenly, without warning, Dlynne exclaimed (10/11/2009 6:19 AM):
I have a one year old Birman cat that likes to chew on headphone
wires. He has already chewed right through 4 pair.
I am worried with Christmas coming up and him chewing through the
Christmas light wires. I tried vinager on the wires, but that did not
work. I need suggestions as to what to try to get him to stop chewing
through wires.
Thanks,
Dlynne


If coating with various icky things doesn't work, you might try wrapping
some split loom or other tubing around it.

Links are from Amazon.com:

or even something like this: http://tinyurl.com/yzltyfr

If you live in Northern VA or Denver, Microcenter has a ton of choices
(this link contains a lot of non-cable-hiding items so you have to
search around a bit): http://tinyurl.com/ygzelaw

The general idea is, hide the cable. If your cat is really dedicated,
you could even try hiding it in PVC tubing, though I've not really heard
of anyone doing that

Good luck!
