My cat, Oreo, used to love to listen to the tuba, liked to sleep in my gig bag, and would curl up with the sousaphone. My cat Wonka is OK with the tuba playing, and will sit outside on the deck while the quartet practices inside. He does not care for trumpet playing. My friends dog Hunter was OK with accordion and tuba and hid under the piano when the recorders came out. I have to go play test her other dog, Sheila and see what she likes.

Found a photo of Oreo:

My cat Oscar loves when I play the Tuba or Bass, and typically sits right next to me. Here's a good picture where he wanted to really be a part of the moment. :mrgreen:

Eardrums tickled, along with teeth, diaphragm, internal organs etc.

One more witness. Our cat sits right beside my chair when I play the tuba, and goes upstairs to my daughter's bedroom on a different floor and the other end of the house when I pull out the bass trombone. She's glad to see me head out of the house these days, since all three tubas are in two different shops getting various kinds of work done.

Saw this video on Facebook:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qs_-emj1qR4" target="_blank" target="_blank

So I loaded up my tuba and headed for the nearest cow pasture.
I played my heart out and one cow wanted to come over but didn't want to lose it's place in line at the watering trough.
The rest of the herd ignored me completely. :(
I erased my video of me playing and cried my eyes out.

Yup. I have been catless for six years now, and hope to remedy that situation in the next few months, so that I can again participate in cat plus brass stories.
