Was having a photoshoot today, and apparently my cat (Ashes) likes this bass. Came over and flopped down right next to it. It does smell really nice...  
My cat also likes to sleep on top of my bass cab. I put a nice mat up there but even so, I don't think the carpet on that cab will ever be clean again 
How about you?

They do however like to use the case to hide behind and attack the others one or the cat when she walks by. They have tried to chew the knobs off my practice amp. |

I just watched, I didnt want to rile him and have every one see the two of us go into full battle mode. It just kept coming and going, probably building a nest in there. As far as I know it wasnt in there when I loaded up. |

| | | | Hey Lokire, what kind of bass is that? It's a beauty.
Anyway, my rabbit seems to love all of my guitars. She actually really seems to like music of any kind.

as soon as I start playing they tend to do a runner though!

the other day when I was about to load my truck with gear for a gig I came back to the garage to discover this one ready to help me...  |

|  | put a bird on it | | Join Date: Dec 2000 Location: Minnesota | | my cat stopped hanging out in my room once i started bass, and she used to hide underneath the couch during a thunderstorm, which was funny because she couldn't fit all the way under, just her front third...
of course, she is now resting in peace if you know what i mean and i have a bigger amp and cab
when i get another cat, it'll have to learn to deal with the low frequencies | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
