Review on Ley's Scat Mat for Cats: Effective Cat Deterrent with Spikes - Indoor/Outdoor Pet Repellent Mat - Dog Network Digging Stopper Prickle Strip by Tyler Owens

I was concerned they might injure my 5 month old kitten as she jumps from desk to computer desk (which is again a launch pad for banned kitchen counters). ). I decided to leave some free space on the desk to land on and then surrounded most of the computer with pieces of garbage mat. (In the picture you can't see the rug behind the monitor to stop the kitten while it carefully hops across the keyboard!) I then used double sided tape to keep the pieces from flying off the table (cats are SO SMART ! ). So far (3 days) everything is working as planned. Kitty leaps to the landing pad, but then crashes into pieces of carpet, carefully stretching out her paw, and deciding not to proceed and causing a feline mess. Ideal. He wasn't hurt and my computer and router are safe too.
