Look in the manual that came with your laptop and see how to toggle the
function keys (FN). It sounds like your cat stepped on FN+some key and
turned off/on some functionality.

shoot the cat, wash the cat crap out of the keyboard with
distilled water, dry the computer 24-48 hours, buy a new
computer.

Of course, following Malke's advice did work. Cats and dogs
should never be allowed near a computer. If you're not
using the laptop, close the cover.

While I would never own a CAT (I have a wolf and 2 dogs), I've had
clients with cats call and say that their cat just urinated all over
their laptops - what should I dooooooooooo? Cat urine is even worse that
coffee or soda, it's very corrosive - not to mention that I don't want
to touch the keyboard after that

I once had a problem with raccoons knocking over my garbage pail outside the
house. The fellow in the hardware store wanted to sell me a bottle of fox
urine. The scent of this, he claimed, will scare away the raccoons.

I had three questions:
1. How do I know this is really fox urine?
2. Whose job is it to run after foxes with a bottle?
3. What happens if this person is short on their quota at the end of the
month?

I suppose he could go to a Sorority to get Fox urine
