First I apologize for breaking a JMDL rule about posting "from within the
ballpark."
I get my new cat, Joan Roberta, tomorrow so I have some questions for the
feline experts on the list. Is Janet still lurking? Catgirl? Colin?
I want to discourage her from jumping onto the tops of the speakers and the
turntable. (I don't want the tonearm to go skipping because of cat impacts
on the cover.) Can I just cover the tops with sandpaper or plastic wrap or
steel? Is there a texture that will lose interest? Is this a case of
"Nothing Can Be Done?"
Am I being a bad host? Should I just give her permission and instead put a
towel on each top to keep scratches off the speakers' black lacquer, piano
finish? A felt and plywood sandwich? A sloping "roof" for the turntable
cover?
"Lama and his feline,
each of charm to sway,
are staring eye to eye.
They dare not look away.
'Ya know they dare not loooooook awayeeeeeee."
