    Thanks everybody for all the wonderful comments about my husband's piano playing. He's thrilled that everyone is being so nice about it! LOL I enjoy listening to his music too! I was thinking I shouldn't even post the video because it's so dark but now I'm sure glad I did. He's going to try out some christmas songs tonight on Paddy.

    Awww....that was so sweet! Does your husband read music or play by ear? It didn't seem like he needed to read the music to me. What beautiful playing!

    Paddy is a music lover like my cat Casey is...whenever one of us whistles a tune (he particularly likes the theme song to the British show "Black Adder"), he will come running over and curl up on your lap and pit pat on your stomach and purr. Whenever I sing, he does the same thing. Sometimes, he will listen for a while, leave, and then come back....the music always seems to draw him back!

    Thank you for sharing!!!

    Music soothes the beast

    Bravo to your very talented husband! I had to watch the video twice...once to watch your adorable kitty and again to sit back and just listen to your husband's beautiful music. If your husband doesn't object, please post some of his Christmas music for us?

    Thank you so very much for this extra special 2 in 1 treat!

    Your husband is very talented (loved the song too). I have always loved piano music since I was a child. I think it's a hoot that Paddy sits with him while he plays. Paddy certainly has good taste in music.

    Your husband is very talented and Paddy is adorable! I love music and the cats don't seem to be bothered one way or another EXCEPT for bagpipes!! That sends them right into the closet..much to the chagrin of my Scottish boyfriend...

    What beautiful music! And so sweet with Paddy sitting there enjoying it. Please thank your husband for me and thank Paddy for introducing the lovely playing via Pet Talk!

    xmas songs...

    Thanks again everybody. I've been reading all the posts to my husband and was so happy to find 4 more today!
    MOMCAT, back by popular demand, here is the Paddy/Hubby duo with two christmas tunes for you! LOL
    p.s. Towards the end of the second song Paddy does the sweetest thing. He's just about to split the scene but before he does, he gives his dad a head bonkie as if to say 'thanks for playing but it's getting late and I gotta run'
    p.p.s. He's still learning these xmas songs so they're are a few patchy spots.
    p.p.p.s. Does anyone else have some cat and music videos? I'd love to see them!

    That was so sweet when Paddy head bumped him like he was saying "Thanks". I enjoyed this one as much as the first one so tell Hubby "Thanks" for playing for us again.... he can play anytime and I will listen! Heck, I listen to Nora, the cat and I don't know the songs she plays... at least I can hummm along with him!

    I am envious of anyone who can play like that... They only thing I can play is the radio.

    Music soothes the beast

    Hi Emeraldgreen, This is the first chance I've had to check in. What a treat! The music was wonderful and Paddy is just too darn cute!!! I loved that headbumpie action. Please tell your husband how much I enjoyed his concert again. Could I ask you to give Paddy lots of scritchies and lovies from me?
