So I know that Windows runs PawSense, a program that plays a screensaver for a cat to look at. Additionally, when the cat gets on the keyboard, it makes a loud noise to scare her off and then reverts back to the screensaver. Or it can be used to detect cat-like typing and make a noise.
I would like a program like that for Mac. I know there is Catnip, which locks the keyboard and detects cat-like typing, but I also want it to make a loud noise so that my kitten learns not to jump on the keyboard when I'm not there. Also, this program does NOT work on Leopard, which is the OS I have.
So basically:
1. I want her to be entertained with a screensaver, AND
2. I want a loud noise to go off when she jumps on the keys, but then allow it to revert back to the screensaver.
I don't just need one program to do this. If it takes several, that's ok… I've been looking around. I can't find programs that would work together or one alone to do what I want.
PS. Any recommendations for a screensaver for a wild-child little hellion of a kitten?

I'm sure there's a way to find or program some kind of slide show as a screen saver with pictures of things your cat would be interested in… Thanks for telling me about pawsense though; it looks good.
The only thing I can think to do till then is program a screensaver to start within a short amount of time and is password protected.
