Default My recent rescue loves the outside sounds (from a baby monitor)

Sounds like an excuse...

silly.

One fairly easy way to bring the outside sounds in is to use a baby
monitor (room monitor) and put the baby unit outside. Also, if the
parent unit is connected to a better speaker, that helps.

I've always somehow known that my cats enjoy listening to the
outside sounds. My most recent rescue is obvious about it. I keep
the speaker on the floor. She frequently lies with her head resting
against the speaker. Even when the volume is louder than you might
think comfortable, she's got her head right there, relaxing. And
it's not just one place, the speaker is moved around.

It's obvious now

My cats pay absolutely to any type of canned sound. From the TV, Hi
Fi, or
anything else. Unless its real time and alive without any electronic
processing, they act as if it is not there at all..


I didn't say it, "Spoiled the sound". I said they pay no attention to it. I
also specified my own cats. I believe they can hear so well that they know
immediately that it is not live, and so they throw it into the same
calssification that all such sounds belong in. The TV and etcetra.... Just
useless background noise that we humans are fond of having on all the
time....:^)
