(The only problem with any version of the pearls is that if you drop one, it rolls away under the stove, never to be seen again. If you're me, that is.
I made a skirt of duct tape around the bottom of my stove to stop pills and cat toys from constantly being lost under there.

Hey, that's a project I could get Tim to do! He loves duct tape! And projects!
It works really well! And it was fun!

And you!
I don't want to be a part of any duct-tape projects. (No, not even the kinky ones. Really. Everyone has limits, and duct tape is one of mine.) He can love me from afar while he's making the duct tape skirt for the stove.

Dude, that is an awesome idea.
The duct tape is brilliant! my sister's cats (all of them, as far as I can remember) loved getting her NEW lip balms and playing with those until they'd knocked them under the stove/ refrigerator/ couch/ large, heavy, immovable furniture. And it was always the new ones - the old ones they rejected.
I had a miserable time in HS and got out of the hellhole my family lived in as soon as I could and haven't gone back since graduating from college. I won't go to any reunions, won't acknowlege anything from Classmates, I'm not on Facebook so that's not an issue. I was the easiest target, so I got a lot of shit ... including the guy who'd grab me, grope me, try to pull my clothes off in class, with no one - including teachers - ever saying a word.
The duct tape does work awesomely! I tucked it back a little under the edge of the stove so it's not really visible unless you're on the kitchen floor. I'm pleased with my effort, there.
And, after all, who gets down on the kitchen floor besides the cats? and their aesthetic appreciation is probably more practical - they're cranky because they can't bat their toys under the stove any more ... mom's a killjoy!
Actually, Leo the Cat was the reason I did it. He would bat his new toys under the stove, fish for it a minute, then look up at me piteously until I swatted it out with a broom. This was annoying. It also occurred to me that there might be important stove parts I shouldn't be whacking with a broom.
