I used to have a cat some years ago. Rio lived more than 18 years, but I worried she wouldn’t make it to 5 years because of her habit of chewing on electrical cords. I wish CritterCord cord protectors had been around back then. The clear tubing slips over the electrical cord to provide a protective layer. They are heavy-gauge, so they resist even the most determined chewer. They’re also infused with citrus scent and a bitter taste that won’t wash away that should make the cords less attractive to your pet. They are sized to fit standard outlet cords or USB and smaller computer peripherals cords. Each size is available in a 6-foot length; the outlet cord size is $11.99 and the computer peripherals size is $7.99.

This product sounds good, but Amazon reviews include many comments that the cord protector smells awful. My sister has an “electrician” cat and I’ll have her try the smaller diameter “Micro” version of the product. It’s for smaller diameter cords like iPod power/sync cords. It get better ratings, perhaps because there’s less stinky surface area than the larger diameter tubing.
