I'm interested as to how this happened:

Perfectly formed circles, after the monitor got wet (ok, my cat "scented" it, which I assume is salty water) - why the circles? I can't believe the "water" physically spread that evenly. And I'm unaware of any connection in an LCD monitor activating a circle - wouldn't I short out a horizontal band or something?


Very weird, especially how they are such perfect circles. You wouldn't think
urine would even penetrate an LCD screen. But I guess the bottom line is
you're hosed.


In more ways then one


It's why cats aren't the dominant species on the planet. Using urine to mark territory, ffs.

I bought a plug in pheromone emitter once, it was supposed to stop them doing it. It smelled worse than the cats and was immediately returned.
