PawPause is an ingenious, tiny macOS menu bar application designed to protect your work from feline interference. It intelligently detects when your cat steps onto your keyboard and instantly pauses all system-wide input, preventing accidental keystrokes and ensuring your documents and applications remain safe. Operating entirely on-device, PawPause guarantees your privacy, and as an open-source and free tool, it offers a simple, effective, and accessible solution for every cat-owning Mac user.
