Step away from the crack pipe.
Everything is fine. Buy nothing. There are no problems. The little blinky lights are supposed to go blinky blinky. If they don't, then you can panic because Hitler's Ghost has invaded your computer.
@Big Bruin: Careful. You don't want to confuse him with OSI Models, 7 layer TCP burritos and other Ethereal Tools nightmares. He probably hasn't scanned for Spyware and/or has some program that sucks up his bandwidth on a regular basis like Kazaa. |

The twisted pair.
If you're talking about ordinary cables with male plugs, then, yes, they've probably got real shielding. |

To make sure your cat doesn't damage your cables, get some Cat-5 or Cat-6 ethernet cables.

Not dumb, the little stuff even trips up the most experinced users.
Ethernet cables are amazingly durable, yet over time all the minor injuries added up to end of useablity/end of life well before total malfuction. (it works, it just doesn't work very well) a new cable is a cheap fix. |
