If I had a cat, I'd imagine this is exactly how it'd go. - eviltoast

    That’s the only reason I haven’t. It’s not that I don’t have the technical know-how to build them a custom button setup. Or that I think my cats wouldn’t use it.

    I just know they would crush my soul.

      Based on cat keyboard usage, I imagine in most cases you’d get something more like “litter food pet food food food food play pet food litter food” — and that’s just in the first 10 seconds.

      Cats love to mess with their environment just to see what happens.

    I just got these buttons (from Amazon as well lol). Apparently the cat isn’t pushing them because I haven’t recorded the right words that would allow them to communicate their disdain for me.
