Sorry for loss dude, when I lost my sister 15 years ago I never got over it, even now! Different situation completely but still losing your sibling is the hardest thing I'm dealing with.

As for your dreamcast I'd disassemble everything into individual stages. All cables I'd run through a dishwasher or soap and hot water but thoroughly dry with warm air, or ebay spares are plentiful, maybe a donor DC that's not working?

For the Power supply I'd replace it as the urine is slightly corrosive and could cause damage later on. They're quite cheap and easy to replace. As for the other boards I'd get some iso alcohol and a few tooth brushes and get scrubbing.

You mentioned retrobrite for the case so I'd stick with that and once applied get it in the sun or UV box which can be easily be knocked up, youtube is king for these kind of things.

Good luck with everything and I hope your family celebrate your sisters life, not everything is defined by what we do and I'm sure your sister loved you all and her cats. Remember her and celebrate everything she loved.

I used to work for Shell Energy Broadband and they're an awful company. They use the TalkTalk network which barely works and that's sublet by BT. I'm with BT now and have gigabit connection, not had any issues in 2 years.
