      My budgies will make a lot of noise when any music is playing. Also when people talk. For this reason, they have a radio playing while we are out of the house and can’t talk to them.

    My friend had a bird called a Beo, he talked as well. When I played guitar he would come over and listen. If I stopped playing he went “uh?” looking at the sound hole of my guitar

    My cat will come in and lay down in front of the speakers when I put Alice in Chains on. Probably just a coincidence, but hey it seems cool.

    She’ll also watch the TV when I play Metroid games. She likes watching the morphball roll around.

      Your cat hears the promises of a rooster coming and knows for sure he’s gonna die. She’s waiting to score a kill.

    My cats simply act like it’s not happening, no concept of what’s going on. Or any of Marvin Gaye’s other albums for that matter.

    Every animal I’ve had has reacted to my playing of a flute or ocarina. They ignore my piano and guitar tho lol

    Dolphins are said to like music so much you can lure them to a boat if you have opera singers on board.

    My dog howls whenever she hears Piano Man by Billy Joel. That’s the only song she’s ever reacted to, and she does it every time. Her ears perk up as soon as she hears the piano in the intro, and she starts howling when the harmonica starts. She doesn’t stop until the song ends. I have no idea why she does this, and when I told her vet about it, the vet just shrugged and said, “I’ve always liked Billy Joel, too.”

      Maybe she’s just annoyed that Billy Joel wrote a song about how everyone in the bar sucks but him.
