Cats wise my old ones used to go freaky at times when wires moved along the floor (like a wired controller). They would launch straight up in the air, seemingly without crouching first, land back arched with fur up. If there was a flower in the fireplace where the TV (and games) were and she went over to sniff it (she was odd that way) if you gave the wire a quick wiggle then hilarity would ensue.
We also got a snake skin once when a friend's shed it and she would not go past it. So we put it in front of the only door out of the room and rattled her food tin.
Anyway generally nothing. Though if I think about it then stupid people... little else in life causes me as much aggravation and traumas as stupid people.
