I feel your pain. Our cats were knocking my speakers off the stands and over all over the show and scratching the covers (which I left on because I didn’t want them scratching woofers and tweeters). I ended up switching my nice new stand-mounts and stands for some old, used curb-side find big fuckers (granted, they are Paradigm 7s) that I can put on the floor until the remaining cat meets its untimely demise…
