I got him as a kitten..and discovered within about a week that he is almost totally deaf. This is why he can hang out while I practice.

That kind of looks like my cat Oscar. He's pretty deaf too (18 years old), so he doesn't play steel much these days.

Actually, I have a cat named Jimi Hendrix. She is pretty much totally deaf also. (We didn't know he was a she when we named her Jimi, didn't know she was deaf either. oops) She doesn't mind my playing much, but will sometimes yowl loudly for no reason at all :\
A big THANKS to all my friends, here and everywhere !
