Do cats even… like synthesizers?
Oftentimes, you’ll find cats next to items that provide a tactile experience. Like many musical instruments, synthesizers produce vibrations. As for music itself, according to a study found in Applied Animal Behavior Science, cats do enjoy “species-specific music” - which includes purrs, etc. The University of Wisconsin tested 47 different domestic cats by playing researcher-turned-musician David Teie’s cat-targeted songs compared with two human songs: Bach’s “Air on a G String” and Gabriel Fauré’s “Elegie.”
The researchers found that the cats showed a “significant preference for and interest in” the cat-appropriate music, compared to the two human songs, to which they did not respond at all.
