Hi
I noticed that our cat who used to sleep on the top shelf of the hot
press had been jumping onto the immersion heater then onto the shelf.
This has worn off a section of the hard foam covering on the boiler.

Is
there anything I can buy to patch this?

Expandite foam from the DIY Stores. It's commonly used to fill gaps

around
windows and doors, but it is also quite a good insulator. Shake the

can
really well before using it and keep shaking it between uses. Be

gentle
with it, as it blows up to nearly three times its liquid state when

curing.

Cheers. Is it possible to shape it (with a scraper for example) to the
general shape of what's already there or will it look like a growth on
top? :-)
