Cheap Cat Furniture
Cat furniture, cat trees and cat condos are great additions to a cat lover's home, as they provide hours of good fun for the feline companions and keep your own furniture intact.
Cat scratching is a perfectly normal behavior for a cat, and if your cat is scratching a chair or your favorite couch, then you just need to somehow re-direct his or her scratching to other, more appropriate objects.
The consensus from the various Societies for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA) is that de-clawing is cruel and unnecessary. I can only agree with this conclusion. However, if you feel that you must either declaw your cat or give her up, we would rather see your cat stay in her home and be your lifelong companion. I only ask that you do not make this decision lightly and just be absolutely sure that you will not change your mind later about keeping your indoor cat once you have it declawed.
You can use nail caps for the cat's front paws as an alternative to getting the cat de-clawed. This is a much more humane choice and it does work to protect the furniture. Just make sure you do not use nail caps on a cat that goes outside, as it will have no defense.
Most pet shops offer different selections of cat scratch posts from which to choose. Some have carpet or rug material on wooden posts and bases. Others are made of rope which is wrapped around the post or pole.
Then there are cat towers and cat trees which are great for the cat to climb and play besides being there for scratching purposes.
Other people like to design their own and make them themselves. This is another option for you as well. Besides going to your local pet store, you can look online for these different cat trees, towers and scratch posts.
One thing that can work well if your cat is still scratching the furniture is to spray some citrus oil on the chair or the couch that they are attacking. This is a good deterrent that usually works quite effectively.

Yes, but you need a crossover cat-5 cable.
If you don’t have crossover cable, you need 2 straight through cables and a hub or switch or router to connect the cables together.
Yes. Unless you have ethernet cards that do fancy autosensing (the only computers I’ve seen with such cards are Macs) you will need to use a crossover cable though.
Only if it’s a cross over cable.
And when you use a crossover cable, your "Server" computer, the computer that will be hooked to the cable modem to receive internet, must have two network cards installed into it. One for receiving internet and one for sending the connection to the other computer via.. crossover cable. You will also have to enable ICS (Internet Connection Service) on the "Server" computer so that your "Client" computer can connect.
If this is all greek to you. You may need to call a professional or your local area neighborhood geek to help you <smile>.
Or you could read up on it at http://www.wown.com
Good Luck
Do you mean can you network them together?
If so the answer is yes, provided they both have network hardware (possibly built in), and that you have the required cable. It’s a peer to peer network so the cable needs to have a crossover, so make sure it’s the right one…this is a mistake many people make.
Other than that, read the help stuff for your OS…I guess Microsoft, and it should all work nicely. Good luck!!
You can connect 2 pcs with a cross over cable or using a swtich/hub and 2 straight cables.

Yes, as long as the Cat 5 cable is a crossover cable.
