also a few days ago she tried to jump on my window but missed and either broke my HDMI cable or the HDMI port on my GPU. Thankfully there's a spare DP port but it's annoying still :')

Cats will be cats

If you can, I highly suggest buying a pack of cheap cable clips and velcro ties off amazon and trying to route your cables nicely/out the way.

My little one is considerably less furry and requires regular diaper changes, but having the cables out of the way and running more tightly against things has really helped keep accidents from happening due to curious hands.

As someone who recently got a kitten, I am blessing past me for buying corded cables "just in case"

Chewy McChewy. We had a kitten like this. We had to buy cable wraps (plastic sheaths) to protect any delicious cables.

This is how you get a flaming chair that needs fumigation.

I think the other kitties have that covered already 😅

I've just given up on stopping him from scratching it, I went through all the 7 stages of greif and am now at acceptance lol

If it's already flaming why does it need further fumigation? Pretty sure the fire'll get rid of any infestations.
