if I'm ordering an ethernet cable for my home network, do I need to worry whether it's cat5, 6, 8 whatever?

I didn't realize there were cats > 5.

Ironically, I'm replacing one that my cat chewed all to hell.

@rpardee get Cat5e. That's about all you need, unless you're doing some higher end network computing.

@IRNMKE3 but higher cats will work?

The real feature I'm looking for is a braided jacket. On the theory that my cat will be less likely to chow down on it.

@rpardee yeah, they'll work, but just more expensive per the footage.
