Nora the Cat's Piano Playing

This thread is clearly musical and categorically should remain above the line. Judge for yourself: Click here for video!

I did do a cursory search and found no threads related to Nora's creative work which has been available on-line for almost two years.

Nora's primary caregiver is a music teacher. So, perhaps, it's not so surprising that she has become so proficient. There are subsequent videos of them playing duets together but I don't think they compare to the original one.

Cheerily,

Yup, Mudcat has been there and done that with Nora at the piano.

It's still funny. Thanks, Charley.

A little stiff on the left paw, I thought, but should improve with practice.

Not sure I'd say this was funny - I find it very moving, in fact, as Nora seems to enjoy herself so much and listens so intently to what's happening.

She so obviously enjoys the sound (head on the keys) and has made the connection between patting the keys and the sound.

So...her style is jazz, right? How about some light percussion...and maybe some woodwind...

It really is fun to watch.

And I'm not surprised it was posted before. Apologies to anyone who is offended.

My cats haven't shown much interest in banjo since they were kittens.

Cheerily,
