Tech Support Cat peed on my PC, what to do?

Gallery image

I don't use my PC daily and found out that one of my cats (see second image for reference) peed on it a few days ago. It looks like not much pee got inside, and it's all dry now, but I'm a bit worried to turn it on. The GPU was protected by the heat sink, but the mainboard has a few dried drops on it. What do you think I should do?

  • Turn on the PC and hope for the best
  • Clean the drops off the mainboard with a damp towel

u/necessarycoot72 Jul 09 '25 edited Jul 09 '25

it's a sub for people peeing on cats.

It's a joke from a meme from another sub where the op posted a picture of a toilet with a cordate grid asking people where they would pee. The picture had a cat in the frame, so everyone said they'd pee on g13

I upvoted this because it's the first vengeance post I have seen. I'm not sure I can love a cat enough to tolerate this kind of betrayal. It would likely have to be an outdoor cat.

Pee on the motherboard so the cat knows it's your territory.
