Hi, I’m Christopher! Read my introduction to be taught extra about me and my foolish Russian Blue cat, Olga.
Some musicians produce songs and movies for cats, however do the cats admire them or secretly want their house owners would cease subjecting them to the noise? Pet house owners in all probability hope their cats have related tastes in music, however until they’ll manipulate the stereo or telephone controls, their cats don’t have a alternative. Our music can be our cat’s; a polka fan’s pet listens to polka music, and a DJ’s feline is subjected to bop music and doubtless arduous of listening to.
Your tastes change as you mature, and I’m glad my cat wasn’t round once I was an eighth grader who blasted Bad Brains or the Dead Kennedys at full quantity in my room. If you study research or articles about which genres of music annoy cats, you’ll discover that heavy metallic is extra despised by cats than the others.
It’s disappointing for heavy metallic followers, however it’s possible as a result of music’s quantity fairly than composition. Most metallic songs aren’t performed at a low quantity, and my mother by no means mentioned, “Will you flip that up, son? You’re not taking part in Iron Maiden loud sufficient!
Music She’s Unlikely to Hear
I don’t suppose Olga has a favourite track or style of music, and like most cats, I don’t suppose she cares concerning the music so long as it isn’t too loud. However, she hasn’t heard EDM, fashionable nation music, or as we speak’s pop music until it got here from the tv. Since I don’t permit visitors to play songs I despise, Olga’s publicity to some genres is proscribed.
I haven’t experimented on her and don’t plan to since I must endure songs I dislike. Olga has listened to basic rock, jazz, blues, classical, heavy metallic, punk (or new wave?), and accordion tunes from Hungary, and all of it sounds the identical to her.
Although she regarded shocked the primary time the MGM lion roared earlier than a movie, she isn’t very all in favour of wildlife packages, even those on birds.
Keeping the Volume Low
Cats have delicate listening to, however I didn’t think about that once I was younger and held events with loud music. My Siamese cat often hid in my room to flee the music, and Olga would in all probability do the identical if I turned the quantity to the max on my stereo.
I’ll all the time play music at home, however I don’t play it loud sufficient to rattle the partitions or injury the cat’s listening to. I do know cat house owners my age who haven’t misplaced their love for blasting their music, and a few suppose it’s amusing when their cats run to flee the noise. If they disguise in one other room away from the audio system, their listening to might be secure, relying on the decibel degree.
Olga solely runs and hides when she hears fireworks and doesn’t react a lot to sounds from the tv or stereo. She could like my music greater than the silence, however till she objects to it, I’ll proceed to entertain her with good tunes.
