Cat and Keyboard

[1969912 0]

I went to the store for some breakfast materials and left my computer on. When I got back, there were at least twenty instances of Firefox Help opened and the FAYT window was open at the bottom with an unending stream of ";!". Firefox was totally locked up. Rebooted, but the keyboard wouldn't work, so I unplugged the USB connector and after plugging it back in, all was OK. My cat had been standing on the keyboard trying to eat the phone line going to my DSL modem. That's all.

Lol! So far my cat has opened iTunes and played a track, shut down the computer completely, and printed a document. Cats are next in line to take over the world and they know it!!

My cat hasn't done much in the last 20 years. It's been in a box under the ground for about that long.

Thus far, Im pretty sure all my computer problems are not his fault.

Cats arn't stupid, you obviously pay more attention to your computer than you do to your cat

I've had a theory for some years. Cats are actually a more advanced race than humans, however they have seen the effort that goes into being the "top" race and decided they didn't want the job. They have manipulated things to the end that "second place" took the job and became cat's servants all in one go...

Cats (and Chihuahuas) are generally much better than humans at discovering the "num lock" key. This can be especially annoying if you're using a laptop or keyboard with some of the keys having multiple uses. Hitting it a second time (the key, not the cat) will often restore the computer to a useful state.

Check the history.

My guess is the cat just locked up the computer to cover his tracks that he was surfing for porn.

I was going to go with that, but was pretty sure somebody would have a hissy fit about the forum rules.

If they don't like it, give 'em a week or two off.

Not had any problems with the cats messing up the computer but my older girl would sometimes crawl around and push anything that could be pushed. Back then the computer was down on the bottom shelf. It's now up on the top shelf out of reach.

No questionable history or mistery documents yet but I regulary find my speakers and my router hanging by the wires off the computer desk. Time to buy an armoire.
