Computer fun at cats' expense
This definitely works on a Mac and should work on a Windows machine.

A few years ago someone gave me a CD of freeware beep sounds. I leafed through it, didn't find the beep sound I wanted (if anyone knows where you can get a hotel desk bell beep sound, let me know) and put it aside.

On Sunday, I saw the disc and threw it in. On there was a tone labeled "cat." It's a meowing cat, as you'd expect. I played the beep sound. Played it again. On the third play, six cats were pawing and crawling all over my iMac looking for the cat locked up inside. The fourth play caused Titty Boy's hair to raise up all along his back. There was a cat inside the computer ready to get his ass kicked, I'm here to tell ya. And nothing could convince him otherwise. And Roll, who's TB's new best friend, was on the other side trying to pry her way in.

Good fun, and cheap if you already have the computer.

4. Oh, I've got you one better
Go get the CD Jingle Cats, should be in the Christmas section now. It will drive both dogs and cats crazy. Or better yet, get a birdwatching CD. Cats go crazy trying to get to the cardinal inside the speaker.
