Today, I bought a brand new Wii U. My cat must have thought the wires looked tasty because he chewed through each of them, which will now cost me another $100. FML

Your cat probably works for Microsoft or Sony.

Agree with #3. Strip about an inch off the mangled ends of each wire and splice them back together with butt splices. Wrap some electrical tape around it for good measure. Cost you about 5-10 bucks

All my wires got eaten by my cat too, I apologize... but I found all of them for less than $40

Sorry. My daughter just broke our gamepad. $100 repair :(

fix your wires, some electric tape, a soldering iron or just some copper tape and some wire shrink wraps. easy job won't cost more 5 bucks (soldering iron costs 15)

Wrap the wires in duct tape next time. I've found my cat is attracted to the scent of new wire but will stay clear of duct tape. He also like white wire more than any other color. Cats are weird.

Good thing kitty didn't get electrocuted! Hide your wires!!!

I don't understand, how it will cost $100?

Id like to know this too...Maybe if bought from the same store the entire thing was bought at...Thats why I say **** you to doing that and check eBay

Rub the wires with orange or lemon peel
