My avatar shows a former kitty who I enjoy seeing when I go to Mandolin cafe.
Nowadays, I have two cats. One, the big boy, is so big I had to buy a Collings mandola. Ha, ha.
The other is my best friend who helped me recover from a dislocated and broken shoulder. (2018) She would sleep on my chest on sleepless nights in the living room.
Now that I can play again, she finds the violin case a good place to listen.

My avatar is my sweet boy Gabe, he’s older now and likes to sit with us when we would gather to jam. Here is a pic of our newer guy we call Little Grey Cat, we got him when my beloved grey cat Pinot Noir passed a few years ago and we finally settled on Rocket for his name because he likes to race around the house at top speed.

Max, one of our 3 cats pictured above in my Recurve case, has liked music from the time we got him as a kitten. He would sit on my left leg under my arm while playing mando or banjo. As he has grown older, he now sits in my case or on a nearby chair while I play. What a buddy...if only I can get him to take up double bass!
