I have a Mac here that I only use for iOS stuff, so normally it is in standby. Now having 3 cats who like to sleep on anything, they somethimes sleep near the keyboard, and when they stretch out they press some keys and wake up the mac.
How do I set this thing to wake up from a mouse event, not a keyboard event? Is it even possible, I see no real setting anywhere!

Unplug or turn off the keyboard is the best way. There might be a control panel app to do it. Check the app store.
