The keyboard lock for cat people. One click blocks every key, so your cat can curl up on the laptop without typing anything. Lock the keys. Love the cat. Cats Lock is a one-click keyboard lock for Mac, built for the moments your cat decides your laptop is the warmest spot in the house. Hit the lock, let her settle in, and get back to whatever you were doing — without random typing, deleted documents, or a sudden trip to System Settings. ONE CLICK, KEYBOARD LOCKED Click the menu bar pawprint, press ⌘⌥L, or use the main window. Every key is instantly blocked. A friendly overlay shows what's happening; the same shortcut releases it when you're ready. STEALTH LOCK FOR SLEEPING CATS When your cat is already settled and you don't want a visual takeover, flip on Stealth Lock from the menu bar. Same keyboard blocking, no overlay, no sound. PICK YOUR FELINE DETERRENT Choose from seven built-in sounds — including a spoken "Warning, cat on keyboard" voice prompt — or import your own. Sounds play on each blocked keystroke to help train your cat over time. Or stay completely silent. LIVES IN THE MENU BAR Cats Lock stays out of your way. Always one click from the menu bar pawprint. Optional Launch at Login. Auto-unlocks when your screen goes to sleep so you're never locked out of your own Mac. PRIVACY-FIRST Cats Lock runs entirely on your Mac. No accounts, no cloud, no analytics, no data ever leaves your device. The app is fully sandboxed and uses only standard Mac frameworks. No Accessibility permissions required. DESIGNED FOR CAT PEOPLE Made by a cat owner who got tired of his cat rewriting documents in real time. Every setting exists because a real cat needed it. REQUIREMENTS macOS 14.0 (Sonoma) or later. Apple Silicon and Intel Macs supported.
