## Resource

What if music could be composed specifically for your cat? This week on Cattitude, Michelle Fern welcomes acclaimed cellist, researcher, and composer David Teie, creator of the groundbreaking Music for Cats albums. David shares the fascinating science behind species-specific music, explaining how feline vocalizations, purring, suckling sounds, and early brain development inspired music designed to calm and comfort cats. Learn why cats respond differently to music than humans, how shelters and veterinary clinics are using feline-friendly music to reduce stress, and hear heartwarming stories of shy and formerly feral cats finding comfort through sound. If you've ever wondered what your cat wants to hear, this fascinating conversation offers a whole new way to enrich your feline's world.
