Cat damaged speaker, Help


I posted this on the Asylum, but wanted to get as many opinions as possible.

Our cat cut a slice that looks like a number "7" into the rubber surround of one of my speakers. The woofer is a 6.8" Scanspeak driver which I know is expensive to replace. The speaker seems to sound ok but the cut is bothering me. Is there any kind of glue I can use to repair it without doing more damage to the speaker, or should I just leave it alone? Any help would be appreciated.

Your post caused me to investigate, just for fun. I used Parts Express for some old garage speakers, but yours are much nicer. I found a website that is interesting but I have not used them. They sell an adhesive just for this purpose as well as re-foam kits for many speakers.

Good luck.
