Everyone N E E D S to watch this; it's a cat being lulled to sleep by his piano-playing human.

Oh, well yes this is definitely true of the skittish ones at least-- all the black cats I've met have been mischievous, skittish buttheads but I love them anyway. Calicos too.

I shared that on FB like a week ago.

My black cat is pretty chill. He will whine every now and then but I just have to call his name and snap my fingers and he will come to me to get pet. I have my cats trained pretty well for the most part. I don't have to yell at them if I catch them on the table. Just a snap of my fingers and point down and they know to get off the table.

It's hard to train cats, but if they want to do something and coincidentally you want them to do it too, then cool. I only have to rattle their bowls on Wednesdays and Fridays, fish nights, and they're all there waiting. When I'm reading for Karen I pat the armchair beside me, say "Eddie! Story time!" and he'll appear, charging down the stairs or in from the hall, to settle beside me, nuzzle his head off my knee, and sit there listening to me read. And if I sit any other time, it's open season as they all three come looking to be petted.
