nice one...

funnily enough 4 days ago I found one sleeping at the steps of the studio entrance...
Vet said someone broke his ribs, so I had to keep him in (he is so tiny he wouldn't survive outside anyway)...

Funny how they choose the people that will take care of them (it's the third one I find sleeping at the same place) and obviously I can't do anything but take care of them until they are ready to live on their own.

Apostolos

P.S.
this is my other (18 years old now) cat


used to live in the studio until last year.

I'm slightly troubled that so many of my fellow ME's are cat people...

We've a dog here, too. But neither of the 4-leggers don't hang around in the studio too often, to be honest.

My other cat is in heat right now, driving my nuts, working from home and having cats is great but "moeeeoeow moeoeeooew moeeeoeow!" and judging 0.5dB steps of eq doesn't go so well

Two lovely Shiba Inu's here. But they're not allowed at the studio. They constantly wrestle, and I'd be pretty bummed if my woofers damaged a woofer.

Okay, another studio cat thread!
Here's my old cat, he went missing a few years ago.

My new cat doesn't climb on the gear!

Plus, the long-haired ones have nice fluffy tales for cleaning between knobs.

They're not ATC's, but just speakers using ATC parts. No ports - the cabinets are of closed design.

I do wish people would use the search function: "cat" "mastering engineer"

..they're kinda cute hardware units though.

The look on Jaakko's cat's face is fantastic - 'You'd better believe I'm in charge around here!'.
