Computer keyboards seem to have the same fascination for cats as cardboard boxes.

You spend your time attending to a) The keyboard b) The screen - when you should be focussing _all_ your attention on c) The Cat.

If you really love your cat you will buy him an electric typewriter.

It's also worth scrolling further down to "How you get (got) to sing the blues". Hilarious!

I always thought it was the other way around, ie cats keep people. Brian

And piano keyboards left with the lid up as well. When I was a mere lad we lived below a piano teacher, and regularly we would hear this discordant noise from above followed by a shout. The lady told my Mother that it was her cat walking on the piano keyboard, which apparently was very fascinating to most cats, presumably due to the movement and the sounds. Brian

A friend of mine also reckons that the cable of a computer mouse has some kind of cat appeal as well, as often when he is using it and its visible over the edge of the table, it gets snatched out of his hand when the cat leaps up to grab it. I guess its a hunting behaviour of some kind.

That is the reason why I use the simplest keyboards available, without any additional one press controls.
