The Cat Pianist?

Thanks to Andrea over at Modern Pooch, I now know that there is a special Animal Academy over in Germany that is teaching dogs, cats, chickens, and other animals how to play musical instruments. They say it is a method of using positive reinforcement. I know that I do better with positive reinforcement. I do MUCH better when rewarded with a cookie, instead of a whack over the head. It is a REALLY interesting article though, very thought provoking. Makes me wonder if I could try something like that at home. To read the full article and see a video demonstration, click HERE.
