I keep the dials for our gas stove in a bowl beside it for that very reason. You are supposed to have to push the dials in to turn them but that has apparently worn out over 16 years.

The stove has push buttons like a microwave. The next stove will be induction, which I think, means that on steely cats would get burned.
