On my computer table, I have the monitor, the tower to the left of 
it, and a tabletop shelf system containing external drives, cable/DSL 
gear, etc.  Not long ago, I glanced over, and Rhonda, the youngest of 
my kittens, was lying next to the router. I suppose that it's nice to 
have a Cat switch that, at most, purrs and occasionally squeaks.
