Music that cats like. BGM for cats.
If you’re a cat lover living with an adorable kitty, you probably want to let your own cat enjoy some wonderful music too!

Cats seem to respond to high-frequency sounds—that is, higher pitches—and they also appear to prefer sounds like meowing, purring, heartbeat rhythms, and water.

AquaTakagi Masakatsu
Does your cat like the sound of water? My cat is a bit unusual and likes to play with water, but there are many cats that enjoy the sound of water and watching it flow, right? Masakatsu Takagi’s “Aqua” is a track that such cats might find intriguing to listen to—it features a gentle piano melody accompanied by soothing sounds of water and bubbles rising and popping.
They might enjoy the visuals, too.
AtardecerFederico Durand
Federico Durand is an artist from the suburbs of Buenos Aires, Argentina.
He’s a leading figure in Argentina’s experimental sound scene, and here is one of his tracks.
It includes sounds that cats love—water sounds, high frequencies, and the intriguing hoot of an owl—so I have a feeling it might become a favorite.
It could also be fun to record how your cat reacts in the room while the music is playing.
