No no no - you play bass THRU the fuzz pedal - not fuzz thru the bass.

You could always put your bass in its case so your cat can piss on it.

I agree. Unlike dogs, cats don't know sit. My final word about cats: toxoplasmosis.

No, but cats do know how to **** **** up and blame it on the dog. They also make you work for their affection.

Ah. So then being married must be very good preparation for becoming a cat owner...

this is what i am going to spend the rest of my day looking at! seriously, though, my cat just loves to chew on bass strings. whichever bass i have out, wherever i set it down (even on a stand), she'll go after it. i do not understand.

Its the other way around, first you get the cat in preparation for living with a woman. If youre married then you can handle a cat, no problem. Your wife will do most of the cuddley work, and you get to sit around and be the cool guy that the cat really likes, as you do not smother it with hugs and baby talk.
