    My Mondo’s preferred way to wake me is to put all of the claws on one paw into my chin. Why do we allow this abuse?

      Alright @Wild_Mastic@lemmy.world @Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com @Flax_vert@feddit.uk here we go. I picked up some of my cat Alaric’s favourite treats so we could get that authentic “give me food” sound as I kept them away from him.

      I went with a virtual amp instead of the actual pedals so that I could show the exact same clips with and without amplification. I tried replicating something like the two pedals that are visible, but I couldn’t get it to work with the stuff that I already have so I just went ahead and dialed in a general death metal-ish tone of high drive distortion > Marshall JCM 900 with the mids scooped > a little tiny bit of reverb > a 4x12 cab. The clip has ten seconds of guitar recorded straight into the computer, the exact same guitar clip but with the amp turned on, then Alaric, and then the same clip of Alaric but amplified. Headphones warning, it is quite loud

      Also a picture of the star vocalist, of course

      I have a cat, a mic, and pedals. I’ll leave this comment as a reminder for myself to come back later once I’m done working and see if I can get the house-panther to do some vocals

    One of ours figured out how to rattle the blinds to wake us up, then taught another how to do it so they can tag team us every morning.

      One of mine very quickly learnt to jump onto my desk and get in my face when he wanted attention. The other (the lap cat) recently realised how effective that was and has started doing it too.

      Heh my dog just breaks the blinds.

      He’s neighborhood watch. He doesn’t give a shit about the blinds. He’s looking out the window no matter what. He has a job to do.

    It’s 6am for me I just got back into bed from feeding my insistent cat. He’s not normally this bad but something about this morning he would not let up
