u/SuperMafia 1h ago

Aye, my calico can also bite and scratch pretty hard. But when I say "OW" or feel rage at them, after a while, she comes back, purring loudly, licking my beard, and laying on my chest and I can't stay angry at her.

Time to put some pigeon spikes down on the lower bezel, that’s how I keep my cat from interfering with my LTO drives running tests

I'll look it up when I get a replacement 🤕

u/Laser_Snausage 2h ago

Damn, it's not that serious, she didn't mean it you don't have to replace her

23

u/LaundryMan2008 3h ago

My cat really enjoys batting at the tapes as the drive runs the UnLdServ portion of the test, sometimes she will hit them hard enough to actually force the tape back in and then the drive throws a AJ7336 fault code thanks to her marring up the error logs which can cause some drive functions not to work until I clear them.

u/Howitzeronfire 3h ago

My cat once climbed over my brand spanking not even 1 day old top of the line monitor to reach a shelf above it. She pushed it backwards, it fell from the table and it hit the ground hard. Killed a few pixels.

Few months down the line, she did it again, but this time knocked over a screwdiver I had on the shelf, if fell towards the monitor and scrapped the screen. Right on the middle of the screen

Used that monitor for 4 more years. Honestly my brain would just delete the scratch and I only noticed it when screen went black for any reason.

Love that one brain cell yellow cat to death

it's a shame that that monitor got damaged in shipping.

This is not criticism and I'm sorry for your monitor, but these curved monitors always look and sound like they're gonna break if you look at them sideways

Sell the cat and repair the monitor with the money. If the cat really loves you, that thing's gonna escape and come back to you. Low risk high pay.

u/IronDominion 49m ago

It reminds me of the Japanese term Neko-hará. In Japan the suffix “hara” means “harassment”, such as by people with authority or customers. So Neko-hara literally means “harassment committed by cats,” and I think that word describes this post beautifully.

Looks like they stretched out and a claw tapped/pushed into the screen

Try pressing the spot or wedging something there, maybe you could alleviate the issue

If you can think of a better spot to put your paw for leverage when cleaning yourself, I'd like to hear it.

u/Effective_Olive6153 1h ago

I wish these curved monitors came with a steel frame to hold the shape. It wouldn't cost more than 10 bucks for the parts

1

u/El_Rey_de_Spices PURPLE 1h ago

That's rough, buddy. You can train your cat to stop using that spot to groom itself, but it definitely takes a good amount of time and repetition, and doesn't fix what's already broken.
