User calls, leaves voice mail. "Hi, I have a really strange problem, I was trying to print and this kitten that we have that we're trying to give away walked across the keyboard, and now I can't print."

...

Try, say, removing the animal from your keyboard?

Can I have the kitten?

By the way, this reminds me of a great email we got at (OEM) tech support before our jobs were all sent to India.

"My pet monkey, Milo, ate some of the keys off the keyboard of my portable computer and I just wanted to know if this is covered under my warranty?"

I've heard of the same thing happening with a parrot.

Dang! *kitten envy*

I don't doubt it. The reason I remember it so well was the guy even bothered to put his monkey's name in the email. hee.

I'm sure there are kittens in your city who need homes.

LOL. I can imagine the reply. "Dear Sir, I'm sorry to inform you that your warranty only covers keyboard damage caused by monkeys named Sam."

Oh, I know there are. We are probably at maximum cat capacity in our house though. Fortunately, we divested ourselves of half our cat population when my parents moved down and are now only owned by three cats.

your phrasing is perfect.

But I still squeeze them! So I guess they're not entirely the boss of me. Unless they are psychically commanding me to squeeze them.

My cats enjoy walking on keyboards too. One time I let my girl cat name a family of my Sims. That AAAAAAAAAAAA sure was a mischief-maker.

Yes, so Milo would fall under the SOL portion of your warranty!

it tickles me that there's actually a product like this.

But you know the creator must have been a victim of a catastrophic data loss. Necessity, invention. Hee.

And my rats have me.

Their bitch
