#  Every time your computer boots up, PawSense will automatically start up in the background to watch over your computer system.

# Even while you use your other software, PawSense constantly monitors keyboard activity. PawSense analyzes keypress timings and combinations to distinguish cat typing from human typing. PawSense normally recognizes a cat on the keyboard within one or two pawsteps.

# If a cat gets on the keyboard, PawSense makes a sound that annoys cats.
This teaches your cat that getting on the keyboard is bad even if humans aren't watching.

I like it. There's nothing worse than getting 'that' look from the cat as you're trying to remove him from the vicinity of the keyboard.  Mind you

  would be good if it was able to be triggered manually when the cat starts kneading your leg prior to jumping on the computer desk  ;D.

Lucky you!

Minnie for all that she was a jolly nuisance when any of us were on the computer, would never step on the keyboard. she would get between you and screen, hog your lap, climb across the keyboard but never stand on it. Her absence from the computer was why we went looking for her on the day she passed away.

Smudge - we have a photo of her sleeping on the keyboard of the work laptop. She even managed to turn the screen display sideways on day. It took Mr sp 2 hours to figure out how to undo that.

Sally however is defiantly the worst. That is why she has her own blog.
