OnlyaGibson,

You gotta write a tune "Dog Drool on my Calton"! Nice doggie

**OdnamNool** · Jun-15-2004, 6:08am

Argh. You again... I'm not talking to you... (Ooops, I guess I just did...)

He's mostly English Springer Spaniel. When I got him at the adoption center, I thought there was something familiar about him. Check out the cover on Grisman's "Dawg 90" album.

Our cat managed to fit himself in the case, just not that Lemur tail (I've never seen another cat with a tail like that).

Great tail .. couldn't you crop out that banjo ??

**Greg H.** · Jun-16-2004, 7:22pm

Sorry, there's only so much you can do with a picture taken with a palm pilot (in any case I was never very good with diagonal cropping). We're still hoping he'll grow into the tail (he was only 6 months old at the time of the picture). He's big enough now that he's given up on mice and started hunting rabbits (caught 2 thus far--I need to try and limit this as it's distressing the kids).

Greg, several times I recal my cat (RIP 6-weeks ago) would find a rabbit hutch. He'd devour one or two and leave a few tell-tail remains on the back patio. The last one he'd gently bring into the house and drop by my feet, still very much alive. Then we'd both run around the house trying to catch it. If he caught it first he'd never dispatch of it, but drop it again and let if run off. I really think he was trying to teach me how to catch rabbits.

**Greg H.** · Jun-17-2004, 11:00am

Uh oh, I see a real crisis brewing. If he starts doing that he's going to quickly be limited to indoors only. I, of course, would never catch the rabbit. The German Shepherd and Golden Retreiver, however, would have a field day. The chaotic mess left by the pursuing dogs, the little surprises found behind the TV or under the couch. Ugh!

This is a pic of "Tobey" he is a Siberian forest cat and 4 months old. He should get to be 25 lbs when he is full grown, so we are all making "good friends" with him before he gets any bigger. Right now he likes my mandolin playing I just hope he still likes it when he is full–grown!

Not quite a cat, but my girls love to play in the cases.

dead links, I will repost.

I don't have a picture, but y'all might like this story.. I just got back from Nashville where I was recording a couple or three tracks on Jack Schultz's Loar. The night before we were in the studio we were over at Tim O'Brien's place to practice some, and we had a number of instruments out as you can imagine. Tim had an adolescent (or maybe about 10 week old) kitten in the house who was busy splaying himself out all over couches and what not. We never actually saw him in the Calton, but the next day in the studio I noticed the Loar had lots of little white hairs all over it. I'm kicking myself now that I didn't get some kind of picture

**phiddlepicker** · Aug-07-2004, 2:24pm

Here's one of our mandocats. The Mando doesn't go to that case, just happens to be where i left it. My cam doesn't show how really ugly this cat truly is. My Maine Coon Otis died and a friend of mine begged me to take in this stray when she was a wee kitten.

**phiddlepicker** · Aug-07-2004, 2:31pm

btw....the cat's name is Jezebel

**violmando** · Aug-08-2004, 9:23am

Don't have a pic, but my cats love BOTH my mando and fiddle cases--will lie on top if not open! I partially solved it by giving my Diva cat(aka Chloe) an old guitar gig bag to cuddle up on, but I am resolved to having HAIRY instruments!

CAT TUNED

And I thought my "little" (12LBS--a subtantial pet) Neko was being original...of course she barely fits in the case anymore, but it doesn't stop her from trying...
