Cat damaged speaker, Help

First, do no smarm.

I sold a pair of Vandersteens many years ago after getting the "cat abused" grills replaced (by Vandersteen). Now THAT was a cat friendly speaker including the little "cat trampoline" on the top. I couldn't take having them ripped up again so I moved on to speakers less appealing to cats. A stern "no" to a cat? That worked? Really? When my current cat dies I'll reconsider Vandys maybe, although I prefer speakers with drivers I can see and remove for my own curiosity.

Adam18 has "personally seen the results of demented people who have actually "barbecued" their cats and dogs". Really?..where do you live? Wow...also, your dogs are now puppies? Now THAT'S strange...

I think the insane act of "declawing" cats is illegal in most places these days, but it appears I don't get out enough. Damn...get me some Shiraz quick!

I guess I'm wrong about the douchebags who declaw cats...I stand corrected.

I would like to address the "thousands of Vets, NATIONWIDE, that perform the operation daily":...you should be ashamed of yourselves as you are a disgrace to your profession.

I also feel that Vets should not be performing speaker repair without proper training.

Also try providing a system just for the cats so they are less tempted to disturb other systems.

When I moved in with my gf a few years ago her cat peed on my Vienna Bach speakers...creepy but harmless (the incident, not the speakers which I sold anyway due to midrange congestion). Also peed on a Les Paul guitar case that to this day carries a hint of that incident. The favorite speaker for cats has to have been my old Vandersteem 1Bs which were designed not only for music, but clearly for cats to entertain themselves...cat friendly clawable covers, little cat trampoline rest area on top...had those repaired and sold. Now we remain catless and happy.
