5.0 out of 5 stars Seems to work well so far, February 22, 2007

By	adp727 (Virginia) - See all my reviews

Our cat has been a chewer since she was a kitten. She will chew on about anything.. cardboard boxes, plastic or paper bags, etc.. But the most worrisome thing was the cords. It's pretty easy to keep most dangerous things away from her. But electrical cords are sometimes hard to tuck away if the outlets aren't behind furniture. I thought the Crittercord would be worth a try, figuring that even if she doesn't completely quit chewing on the cords, at least she will only be chewing on the plastic cover and not the actual cord that has electrical currents flowing through it. Well, so far, it really seems to be doing the trick. The first place I applied the crittercord was to one of her favorite cords - under the desk in the office. I watched as she approached that cord a few minutes later. She walked under the desk slowly, sniffed the area, and then she actually backpedaled her way out from under the desk. Apparently the infused citrus scent really does work, at least for now. She has since ventured back under the desk, but doesn't seem to bother that cord at all anymore. We've been putting this stuff on all the exposed cords around the house. You can just cut the crittercord with scissors to the length that you need. And because it's clear, it doesn't look any different from just having the bare cord showing. It's a really simple, inexpensive solution to a stressful problem.

1.0 out of 5 stars the smell drove us out of the house, July 1, 2008

By	Ravinia (our nation's capital) - See all my reviews

unfortunately from the moment we took it out of the box the smell made us nauseous. "citrus scent" indeed - it smells like insecticide. And it permeated the house during the day especially when it was warm. Hoped it would fade after a while but no.

the cord protector looked to be of good quality and the reviews were great, so we may just be oversensitive; if you are sensitive to smells be forewarned.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best cord protectors out there!, February 23, 2008

By	noneyobusiness - See all my reviews

I use these with my two bunnies and they work great. My buns are hardcore wire-chewing machines, and this is the only cord protector they have truly stayed away from. I've used other cord "covers" that are marketed towards keeping your wires organized, and the bunnies chew right through them. I put the critter cord on a few lamp wires and they didn't even sniff them. Nothing has worked for me as well as these do! BTW, my bunnies are as bratty as they come...not even chew deterent spray has worked, so this truly is a great product. They are pretty small though, so you can't wrap up more than two regular sized cords in them at once.
