My shop manager...

After recently losing my 11 year old dog who I had dubbed as my shop manager, a new manager has taken his place. 1 of our 4 cats is always with me now. Especially when I am in the shop. What is really amusing is that usually he is typically quite, UNTIL I put on some Chocolate. Anything with Chocolate and this cat will begin to sing/meow. I do not know if it is out of approval for Chocoolate's voice or disapproval. Today I had been randomly changing the music. I decided to put on Chocolate's 'Mis 70 Años Con El Cante' CD and the singing began!

Are you sure it isnt a female cat?

Females love anykind of chocolate

Hmm... maybe your cat is playing too much towards the soundhole?

Just sayin...

No shop is complete without a "shop cat". We've always had a feline shop supervisor.

I was thinking of getting a cat to keep me company in my shop, if I can get one I am not allergic to. How does your cat react to machinery noise?

He doesn't like machinery noise very much. He's ok with most things but if I use something that is too loud for him he will leave and return later.

Record some video. It's obvious why he likes El Chocolate - it's because he is El Chocolate too (black color). Maybe re-incarnation?
