Direct answer: unplug and remove access to damaged or tempting cables immediately. Use physical management and appropriate enrichment rather than relying on punishment or strongly scented deterrents.
Make the hazard unavailable
Route leads behind fixed barriers, use suitable cable protection and disconnect equipment when safe to do so. Replace damaged cables; tape is not a permanent electrical repair.
Offer safe alternatives
Provide play, scratching and chewing-safe items recommended for cats, then supervise until the pattern changes. Store string-like toys after use.
Treat a suspected shock as urgent
Burns may be hidden. If the cat bit a live cable, seems distressed or has breathing difficulty, contact a vet immediately.
A practical furniture note: The Koda Pod can support this routine where its current specifications suit your cat and room. Product furniture cannot diagnose or treat a health or behaviour problem.
