- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 26 February 2021My new kitten was incredibly interested in all things cables. He had already successfully chewed his way through two headphone cables. My real worry was that he would eat through a live wire and be toasted kitty.
I have cables in my living room for x2 desktop PCs, the router and associated cables for other devices...alexa, phillips hue etc. With some careful reworking of furniture and these cable covers I now have a kitty safe environment.
When the critter cord arrived I dumped it on the floor for kitty to explore. He excitedly ran towards it, but backed off just as quick! Does this stuff stink? Yes it does, of course it does, it would be stupid if it didn't. The first few days it was quite noticeable. Now I don't notice it at all.
Well worth the money for peace of mind.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 24 June 2014I read both good and bad reviews when I was debating whether to purchase this or not!
A lot of the reviews commented on the smell so I was prepared for that, and yes, it is pretty potent! When I got the product I took it out of the packaging and left it by the window so it could air for a few days. I have to say though the stink was worth it, my stress levels have now completely gone down because I'm not constantly worrying about my very nosey kitten getting behind the tv and chewing on the wires all the time!
I ordered the twin pack so the smaller one is good for my phone line etc and then the bigger one works well on the cables behind my tv.
I have tested people when they've been round to see if they can smell the protectors and even my mum who has a super sensitive nose said that she couldn't smell anything. I personally feel like I can just get a whiff of it as I walk through my front door but that's it. I just open the windows! Like I said, I'd rather have a slight lingering smell than the panic of my kitten electrocuting herself!!
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 12 August 2019I’m truly struggling with this product. I’m struggling to find a single positive thing to say about this junk.
It smells rancid, strongly rancid at first which thankfully abates after about 3 months. It’s a barely describable smell, almost like strong vinegar the way it attacks the nose and sinuses. Thoroughly unpleasant.
It doesn’t repel animals like it is supposed to. In fact I think it actually attracted our rabbit who has very swiftly and clinically savaged the product plastic exposing the wires inside to his razor sharp teeth. I can’t - in good conscience - praise a product that fails in its primary purpose, its sole reason for being.
Although this review may seem damning. The product usefulness and quality has nothing on the customer service which is laughably inadequate. I contacted the seller to inform them that their product had failed in its primary purpose and they were not interested. Not in the slightest. I got some vague email response stating that they were ‘unable to resolve my issue at this time’.
Quality fail, Customer Service fail, and Cost fail. Hugely overpriced for the value it delivers, which is none.
Deeply avoidable.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 24 April 2017After going through goodness knows how many cables with our rabbits, including apple chargers which cost a LOT to replace, we discovered this stuff. Seems to work a treat, the rabbits don't nibble at it, they'll give it a sniff and walk away. It may be a little expensive, but when you add up how many cables it has saved it's more than worth it. Even if your pet isn't deterred by the smell (and opening the pack that smell is super strong) the cable is thick enough that it should take them a while to eat through, hopefully enough time for you to stop them.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 28 April 2016My rabbit seems to enjoy eating this rather than being deterred from chewing wires altogether, however it does stop him from actually getting down to the wire and is the only product I can find that is designed to stop animals eating cables. Yes, the smell is very strong but it fades quickly.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 27 August 2020This stuff works a treat. When you first wrap your wires in it the smell is very strong and leaves a funny taste in your mouth. It's worth it though 🐈😁
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 14 September 2014I essentially paid £21.00 for 2 pieces of smelly plastic with a slit down the side. The larger cord covered my laptop cord only and the smaller one an adaptor... that's it! There is nothing left! Really not worth the money. Go to a DIY store you will find something cheaper.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 21 January 2023Got these to deter our kitten from chewing wires and genuinely the smell gave US a headache! Not sure who they repelled more, the kitten or us, but he did stop biting cables so hey Ho!
The scent does die down though after a while so now they don’t stink but still keep the cables protected :)

Stefanie WollschReviewed in Germany on 20 June 20203.0 out of 5 stars Gutes Produkt nur viel zu teuer
Beide Kabelschutze sind super - allerdings sehr kurz. Um die Wohnung auszustatten, müsste ich so ca. 400€ ausgeben... vielleicht geht es auch günsitiger...
