THE FUSE

A $3 Mac app that hit the App Store this weekend aims to solve a very specific, but very common problem: accidental inputs from cats walking, sitting and sprawling out on keyboards. Cats Lock is exactly what it sounds like. It offers a way to quickly lock your keyboard, either with one click from the menu bar or using a keyboard shortcut, to block all typing when there's a risk of a feline invasion. It even has deterrent sounds to choose from, like one that will warn you when a cat has stepped onto the keyboard, and the option to record your own.
