Normally sheep or goat intestines despite the name. Cat is short for cattle since occasionally cattle, horses, donkeys and similar animals were used.

They should design like the shape of the cats tail 😂 That would be cool

True Story:

My high school violin teacher was a professor, principal violinist in a minor city and played professionally with bands you’ve heard of. She had a cat who would rest in her case during lessons: it was his spot.

One day after teaching at the local college she went home and realized: crap, I left my violin. She goes back and goes into the classroom and, of course, it is gone. Now, this was a really good instrument and not really replaceable — college security has police come and she files a report. Then, she calls around to places someone may bring it to sell back, including the place she bought it from (the shop owner who knows her and the instrument quite well).

Fast forward: the shop owner has someone come in to sell her the instrument. She calls the police and they do their work.

Now, they come to my teacher and they say “Well, to be sure it’s actually yours, we found some hair in the case we can compare DNA to so we can really throw the book at the guy.”

It’s her cats hair. She provides the sample: it’s a match. Gets her violin back. Thanks kitty!

Got to a gig, opened my case and removed my instrument only to realize that the cat had peed in it while it was empty.

Good times.

u/alicehooper 9d ago

I’m guessing fuzzy Gibson case? I can see kitty getting super excited about the nice cozy potty you keep leaving open for them.

Mob boss: "When I saw the violin case, I thought you were sneaking in a gun to whack me."

Accountant: \picks up cat... and pump actions it** "Tony Lazuto says hello."

u/Duke_Newcombe 12d ago

Remember in the old gangster movies of the 30's and 40's, they say they'd "play the violin" for someone as a euphemism for shooting them? Well, you've got another deadly weapon, there. Just pop the case on 'em, and watch out!

u/blue1to7 12d ago

Talk about a perfect fit! If you are interested, here's a video on why cats love boxes with some studies on that behavior at the end of the video. https://youtu.be/tqo9WVAmYj8
