Cat damaged speaker, Help

Sorry, I just looked at this thread. I have repaired hundreds of speakers, here is a quick fix. Remove the woofer. Cut a piece of thin fabric to fit in the surround area and cover the slit from the rear of the woofer. Now find some old paint. Carefully open it without shaking it at all. Spoon off of the top a tablespoon or so of latex. Mix the latex with an equal amount of elmers glue all. Soak the fabric in this mix, then place on the rear of the surround. Turn your woofer over(top up) with one hand on the rear, position your cloth, while watching the front to pinch close your gash to cosmetically show the least damage. Once you get it set, let it it dry 24 hour before playing. It should hold up fine.
Good luck, Tim

Adam18 has "personally seen the results of demented people who have actually "barbecued" their cats and dogs". Really?..where do you live? Wow...also, your dogs are now puppies? Now THAT'S strange...

I think the insane act of "declawing" cats is illegal in most places these days, but it appears I don't get out enough. Damn...get me some Shiraz quick!

Adam18- I'm a dog lover (cats too... well maybe cat liker would be more accurate). I know that people commit unspeakable acts of brutality against their pets, (and/or their children, spouses, entire races), etc. I applaud your work w animal rescue. There was no question in my mind that those comments were, in fact, meant to be "humorous". I don't think anyone meant to push your hot button, but I also know that it's very easy to misinterpret "intent" via email, esp. given your experiences. I have a very black/cynical sense of humor but try to temper it a bit w a wink ;~). If you ever get to New England, look me up; I'll spring for a fine Shiraz and we'll listen to a few tunes.

Okay Swampwalker.......... All is cool. Thanks for understanding. And to all my Audiogon pals, let's leave this topic alone, and ya'll have a great weekend. Happy listening.

HEY, "wolf"- Look up a Vet on this declawing locator site: (http://www.localvets.com/services/declawing/) Ask them to educate you! I found twelve, in my neighborhoo, that are presently declawing cats.
