I had a cat once that loved to chew cords - she chewed the power cord
to my pc, the keyboard cord and the monitor cord. I don't know why,
but she also liked to lick diskettes! She licked a couple of 5 1/4 diskettes
through the openings (they had been left out of their sleeves) and ruined
them! (Definately a weird cat!)
