How do I keep my cats off my amplifier?


Since my amplifier is too large for an equipment rack, I keep it on a seperate amplifier stand. There is nothing above it to keep my two cats from climbing on top when it is turned on, which they always do, attracted by the warmth. At first I didn't mind until my Rotel RMB-1095 Amplifier shorted due to a build-up of cat hair falling inside. Now my front right channel is gone. I just bought an Integra Research RDA-7 to replace it.
Is there a good way (short of the cat pound) to keep them off?

Hey Clbeanz, that airzooka thing looks like it might do the trick! Neat picture!

Question, How do you get the cat IN the bazooka without getting scratched?
Well I'll share a story I heard once. A man's wife brings home a new cat and a squirt gun. The man asks what the squirt gun is for.

The wife says "It's to teach kitty not to scratch our furniture up. Every time kitty starts scratching our furniture, I give her a little squirt. Kitty will start to make the association, and after a month or so, she won't scratch the furniture anymore!" The man quietly leaves the room and returns with a pellet gun. The wife asks..."what's that for?" He replies, I think I can teach kitty not to scratch the furniture....TODAY!"

Just a thought!

Here is a link to a scarecrow motion activated sprinkler system. That might work!
Hey Allegro12....lighten up. We are having fun. Besides for those that hate cats, logic would prevail that they wouldn't want to own them.

After hearing what cat fur can do to electronics, I will definitely be buying from non-pet owners.
