anyone else accidentally lock their cat up in a pin? i was working on my pinbot a few months ago and left the door open. got distracted, came back later and locked it up. not long after started to hear 'meow's and scratching. took a minute for me to realize i'd accidentally locked up chairman meow in the cab!

he also likes to hang out by me when i'm playing (probably jealous i'm not paying attention to him)

Quoted from gtown:

Anyone had problems with cats causing damage? So far we've made the room mostly off limits but would like to keep it open all the time which means 3 cats of varying sizes wandering around. I figure the most risk (besides hair on the PF glass) would be to toppers and parts/tools left unlocked but the thought of them jumping down on the PF glass repeatedly (even tempered) is still a bit nerve wracking.

I've had my cats jump in the cab when i left it open, which would be my biggest concern. Especially for my cat if it was on. Would rather pay/work to fix a machine than have to cope with one of my kitties being hurt... Or worse.

anyone had issues with cats getting in the machine and batting at wires and other stuff under the PF? seems like dangling stuff would be too much for some cats to resist.

Quoted from sammiesguys:

I was more worried about him getting hurt than doing any damage to the machine.

that would be my concern as well.
