Thanks for all the replies. The dead cat soaked the coffee right up. Actually it does appear that it can be saved. We just used a combination of water, alcohol, sunlight and a hair dryer and it does boot up. There are a few sticky keys, so we will work more on the keyboard, and do some more maintenance cleaning, but otherwise it appears good. She is relieved. P.S. No cats were harmed in the cleaning of this laptop.
