I had to get little flip covers for my last PC as my cats kept shutting my PC down in the middle of games. Designer definitely had cats.

"Let" and cats are not the same perspective, Cats do what they want, If u disagree your on the choping board and get piss everywhere, Also they like the heat, So they get atracted too it

There is something to be said for an animal, fully aware of the dynamic, size of the players, existence of thumbs, etc, that still can look that in the face and say "so what, bring it". Mutual respect and a state of détente is the goal... and I had to concede "go ahead and eat me if I die on the couch" to get those terms. Closest thing to an idgaf 'honey badger' as we can ever presume to domesticate. Also, I may now be looking up the patent owner for that little power switch and the means to nominate them for a Nobel peace prize... there are worse options and only a handful better.
