Lock your Mac keyboard so your cat can walk on it.
About Cats Lock
Cats Lock is a quirky yet practical macOS tool designed for cat owners and pet lovers who want to keep their keyboards safe while their feline friends explore. Unlike traditional keyboard locks that focus on cleaning or security, Cats Lock is built specifically for those adorable moments when a cat walks across the keyboard during a video call or work session. Its standout features include a stealth mode for discreet usage during meetings, customizable warning sounds (with the option to import your own), and quick activation via ⌘L from the main window or menu bar. Crafted by an indie developer for personal use, Cats Lock emphasizes privacy—it's sandboxed, has no analytics, and doesn’t require an account. Priced at a one-time fee of $2.99, this app offers an affordable, no-subscription solution for pet owners who want peace of mind and a touch of humor while working on their Mac.
