5.0 out of 5 starsFinally! Cat proof knob covers to slow down our cats' murder attempts!
Reviewed in the United States on May 3, 2022
So anyone who owns a cat knows that if cats could kill us they would and many cats certainly try.. Now lets be honest. most of the time cats will try to kill you with a stare or try to smother you by sleeping on your face, but once in a while you will find a cat that is fairly smart. Our cat is one of those cats.
So our cat takes pride in being on of these rare smart cats and unlike some other cats who might try to kill their owners, or masters if you prefer; by making them trip over them or by causing chaos until their master just can't take it anymore, our cat likes to go to extremes.
So our cat has upped his killing methods by turning on our gas stove burners. Could it be because he jumped up on the stove and accidently pushed off the dials which spun them and turned the gas on? Maybe... Is it more likely that he has figured out a way to climb on the stove and turn the dials with is little evil paws? Absolutely!
So these knob covers are fantastic to thwart our cats evil plans. We no longer have to wake up in the middle of the night smelling gas and hoping we don't blow up.
These covers are clear and the latch can be put towards the top or bottom. We have them towards the bottom which is a little annoying but it prevents our cat from pushing down and opening them.
These knob covers do come with double sided tape but we didn't use it. It looked cheap and was a pain to get off anyway. I used a name brand double sided tape and used a tiny amount as its no joke, i can't tell you the brand on this review but I can tell you its “Strong enough for the toughest jobs on planet Earth."
YOU DO NOT NEED TO TAKE OFF YOU STOVE KNOBS TO INSTALL THESE. You can if you want, but you don't need to. So many brands I looked at said you had to take the knobs off you stove to install them, I didn't think mine came off ( they do ) so I got these.
Since installing these knobs I can say we haven't had to worry about our cat blowing us up. He can no longer try to go out with a bang!
10/10 would recommend! Again we didn't use the double sided tape it came with AND we installed these with the latch at the bottom to open. they open easy when you press down so I recommend installing them with the button at the bottom.
WARNING: Your cat might get extra angry with you for a period of time after installing these knobs if they prevent one of his murder plans. Don't worry this will pass over time and he will starting thinking of new ways to terrorize you.
Good luck!
