Beach Boy kitten

[Rich Panteluk]

My cat is named Wilson.  Fat and old now, but in many ways resembles his namesake.

[leggo of my ego]

well my suggestion was going to be "Fishbone Dixie" 

Dix for short.

Here Dixie, dixie, dixie...time for your Meow Mix.

"Mr. Wilson" is a nice alternative, but people would probably think it was a Dennis the Menace reference over a John Cale song. I kind of like the Mister part... more formal for a big doughy old tabby who sits around on the porch all day waiting to be fed.

Name him "Sounds." Then, you can introduce him as "My pet, Sounds..."

Kokomo cat must be four years old now. How 'bout a new photo?

My next kitten is gonna be named Murry. Even if it's a girl, I'm afraid.

No way, Ontor--it's gotta be Zeppo.

My cat seemed to enjoy the new Beach Boys album last year:



And I think she's pretty musical overall. She kept us company during a long mixdown session last weekend, laying next to the right monitor for hours. I also see an interest in learning to play the pedal steel:



I could probably teach her how to move the tone bar up and down the strings with one paw, the other has claws which would work for fingerpicks, but unfortunately those back paws won't reach the pedals and she has no knees to speak of for the knee levers.  The interest is there but it seems regular non-pedal steel may be a better pursuit.

this guy has always reminded me of Brian in late 70's shape and facial expression.

Very clever reference to the BBs, Mr. ego.

2guitarfool2002: I remember you posting the 1st cat picture last year, in the official TWGMTR review thread. I immediately liked it then. She's real beauty queen and highly photogenic. Besides, she's got the coolest taste in music! Keep bringing her to the studio & she'll rival you in sound engineering, without a trace of doubt.

Great story (and photo)! I think you need to teach her play gradually - from easy to complex. Let her stick for awhile with convenient stuff, what she's interested in the most.
If I had a cat now, we'd play 4 hands piano, that's for certain.

Additional info: there is one funny feature about cats that exists - seeming indifference & selfishness. Having 2 cats in the past, I observed that they treat people around them in a way, as if we are actually pets & they - masters of the house. Gotta love these animals!
