Larsic Gas Stove Burner Cover, Large, Trendy Dust, and Cat Hair

This is probably a really stupid question and I’m going to go “D’oh!” when I start getting some answers, but this has been a vexing problem for me lately.

I want to start cooking (or at least my pathetic and minimal efforts at same) which means that our electric stove with the flat black surface will now become actually hot on occasion instead of just functioning as another surface to put old mail on. Which means that our cats, who have been known to get up on our counters occasionally (understatement of the year) now might be in danger if they jump unwittingly up onto a hot cooktop.

I tried looking for something to cover the burners with, but “burner covers” apparently are meant to be decorative, not functional, and most of them seem to be made of metal which kind of defeats the purpose.

I don’t want to just leave the hot pans on the burners until they cool, because most of them are Teflon and they start to smell funny. I just want some pads or something (preferably something that won’t slide around) to put over them so the cats won’t burn their paws if they jump up there. Warm is okay, but hot is bad. For now I’ve just been covering the burner with a metal teapot, but I’d like a better solution.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Did your curious kitten burn its paws?

Here's a solution from Jamie Gold, AKBD, CAPS of the popular kitchen design blog GOLD NOTES.

"You can reduce the chance of your cat burning its paws by changing from gas or electric cooking to induction. An induction burner will only heat up when there's a pot covering it. It will also cool faster than an electric or gas burner.

"If changing your range or cooktop is not an option right now, and you have a curious cat, you can keep the burners covered when they're not in use."
