Nora, Piano Cat!

No, it's not a trick!

:-)

Nora, the piano cat, is a real cat. She is owned by piano teacher Betsy Alexander.

Apparently, Nora first tried out the piano around the age of one -- and has continued since. As you'll see, she's playing purposefully. She knows that pressing the keys makes sound!

Nora's playing is not the result of training, or a trick that she was taught.

Nora comes to the piano on her own, as she wants to. Betsy says she usually plays several times per day for a short time.

Animals bring so much to our lives. In Betsy's house, a cat and her owner can even share piano music!

Without further ado... Nora, the piano playing cat!

Pretty amazing, huh? And you can tell she's a happy cat!

In the second video, Nora plays more piano duets with Betsy and her students.
