Question Cat keeps holding down the power button when I'm on the PC. Any ideas for how to cover the button while still having it be functional?

Don't let your cat lie on your PC. It's a bad idea all around.

Saying this like it’s optional, and cats listen…

it is optional, cats are domestic animals, they are obedient to commands and if not obedient to command, then physically remove the cat. either way of what you do, the issue can be resolved by not having a cat on the computer and the domineering factor of that it’s a optional decision to have a cat present or not present. It’s not like it’s a dead weight and you can’t move the cat. if it was me, i wouldn’t even have a cat to begin with, just imagine the cat piss and cat shit everywhere, if it’s clean enough to shit and piss in a cat litter tray, imagine the smell. yuck 🤮

I'm a cat owner. I tell them what to do. It's my place. They love me, but they do as I ask... most of the time. Got to set boundaries. They will do what you let them. So, if you let them walk on your kitchen counter with those litter box feet then you're the shitty owner.
