Onsite/ADP Coverage for Cats
If I could ever figure out how, I would post picture but my cat, who is obsessed with plastic, chewed the corner of the screen of my Yoga X1 3GEN a few days ago. It was sitting open on the coffee table and he must have thought it was a snack. A tooth cracked the screen in the corner, and also disabled the touch functionality. MacDara, named after a fellow we met on our honeymoon in Ireland, is a fiesty feline. Hoping the technician will arrive in a few days to repair/replace. Luckily this was my work laptop and has lots of warranty, including accidental damage protection (ADP). I know it was just an accident that his tooth cracked the screen, he was just trying to taste the plastic case.

@unixed:
Good one!
@mpcook:
Pictures of laptops with animals are one of the reasons why I hate Reddit!
But if you insist:
- upload your picture to https://imgur.com/
- when you click on the picture, a bunch of copy-links is shown to the right of it
- underneath those, you can select Sizes, important to stay within Forum Rules (preferably max. 800x600)
- DO NOT SELECT the first Image Link! (if Javascript in a browser is Off, it will show an empty screen)
- instead select the BBCode (message boards & forums) link by clicking on Copy next to it
- paste that in your Forum post

Re: Onsite/ADP Coverage for Cats
Well, the "IBM" repair guy came by and swapped a new screen into my Yoga X1. It only took him two tries -- first time, the screen was bowed and not properly seated. Looks and works like new now.
Proof that ADP covers cats.

One can't get angry at something that adorable...and I've got a few "cats vs. ThinkPads" stories myself...

Re: Onsite/ADP Coverage for Cats
No, and in any case, getting angry at a cat never works! He will figure out a way to disable Windows.
