Cat Barf - The Aftermath

Surprisingly, we plugged the newly-dried stereo in and hooked everything up and it works just like nothing ever happened to it. Cool.

What happens when your cat barfs on your stereo receiver?

Absolutely nothing. And that's a problem.

The top of the receiver is covered with vent slots and is a favorite basking spot for Zima, because it gets toasty warm and she likes good tunes. Too bad she didn't hop down before she horked up a hairball sometime today. It dripped right through those vent holes onto the circuit board below, soaking the electronics. Crap.

Said receiver is now cleaned (as best we could), vacuumed to remove a mountain of cat fur, and resting (sans cover) in a closed room to dry. Maybe it'll work again... I don't have high hopes.
