How to stop my cat from chewing electrical cords, especially overnight?

Question

My cat chews on things when she's hungry and one of the things she chews on are electrical cords. I'm in the midst of transitioning her over to timed meals from free-feeding and I've noticed she'll chew on the cords overnight between the last meal of the day and the first meal of the next day. What are some ways I can get her to stop chewing on things, especially the cords? Pet's info: Cat | Domestic Mediumhair | Female | spayed | 4 years old | 14.5 lbs

There are products that you can purchase from pet stores (such as Petco or Petsmart) that you spray or rub on things to deter your pet from. They work by being bitter tasting or smelling bad to your cat so that she won't want to go by them. That would be my recommendation so that she stops chewing on the cords. Good luck!
