I doubt it was your playing.

I play the organ. Used to have a Wurlitzer 3 keyboard, 26 pedals. Each time I sat down to play, within seconds the cats left the room. Dad would joke I could clear a room of cats in 4 seconds!

My interpretation: If there is going to be noise, THEY want to be the ones making it!

Funny he knows where the volume is - he DOES pay attention! LOL
