    Try rubbing a dryer sheet (Bounce) over it and this should lessen the static.

    Homes get dry in the winter. Do you have any humidifiers running? That helps also.

    Sounds like you could use some moisture in the air. Dried out from the heater and winter. We added a humidifier to our furnace it helped out with many issues.

    Lack of humidity during winter season causes static electricity to build up more. You might try adding a humidifier system to your heating system or a portable humidifier. Adding a grounding strap to the cats is not a solution.

    Static electricity is a danger when filling up you gas tank. You should always touch an object with your hand before reaching for the gas filler hose.
