Not cats, as I'm allergic, but our dog Molly will often watch me as I play along to various songs. Many is the time that she'll perk up when I plug the pedalboard in.
I have a cat that won't leave me alone when I'm practicing on the couch with headphones, insisting on rubbing up against my bass strings and making it difficult to play. I'm pretty sure the cat likes the vibrations - maybe thinking it's purring?
Anybody else experienced this?

My kids' cat....it lives outside. It eats moles and squirrels and the occasional rabbit. It licks its crotch.
My basses...they do not live outside. Never the twain shall meet.
I am not following the concept of animals in the house.![]()

Mine!I just have one question:
What's the best cat to have around for playing metal?

Used to have a cat that would run up to me and bite me every time I tried to play harmonica.
My current cat doesn't have such strong objections to my sound, but does offer constructive criticism by sitting on my amp and adjusting my knobs to his liking. I have to verify their positions every time I plug in so I don't blow my eardrums out.

I've never worried about ratfur cabs as they are pretty much as fugly as the'll ever get when newRoadRanger- be sure to keep 'em away from any ratfur cabs- those make purrrfect scratching posts.
