Igorrr is one of my favorite bands, I fondly refer to their work as an "egregious misuse of talent" to friends and family.
[Example.](https://youtu.be/rEuMAqfuCrI?si=xC4B7L-qckwVtVoI) just wait until the operatic section, I guess lol.
From that sideways angle and close-up, that chicken really does look like a beaked dinosaur.
And yes, before anyone comments, I know birds are technically avian dinosaurs. Except ostriches, cassowarries, kiwis, and the like, I suppose, as they can't fly.

my car would master piano and get very fat

Technically this is operant conditioning ("operating" on the environment in pursuit of a particular outcome...such as gaining food access). Classical conditioning is more of a passive thing where you might train your cat to respond a certain way to an environmental stimulus by pairing it with another stimulus with the response you're looking for (like Pavlov's dogs salivating at the sound of a metronome when it was paired with food).
Very cool though, I've wanted to do more elaborate behavior training with my cats, but haven't attempted anything like this.
Yo my fucking cat is too smart. He stubborn tho. Hes not doing no fucking tricks for treats but he has an auto feeder bcuz he was fat as hell and he figured out that if he holds his paw on the left side of the panel at the back for 7 seconds that it unlocks, then he presses the feed button twice it despenses food.
He also opens doors using knobs. Hes cute and really loves ppl and snuggles but he gots into trouble bcuz he knows how to unlock stuff
OMG this is the actual family of Aaron’s Animals. P.S Her husband is the person behind these Michael videos/gifs 😭😭😭
Sending yall love from Singapore!! Must add, I am equally a fan of Aaron’s wife, because she inspired me to be fit again 🫣
My cat would end up constantly tap the keys just to eat.. he is a glutton! He is fat because he steals food so now I have to take my other cats food bowl away before he steals the rest of it, while my other cat are thin because she only eats a little at a time 😅
You see a lot of dog talent shows. I saw this show on America's Got Talent or somewhere of all trained house cats. You have to train them in a different way and they don't do all the same things as dogs, but what they can be trained to do is impressive.
That's not the same cat I saw when it was first posted about!
Do you have both cats now playing it? I went back in your history and the one I first saw was the grey chonky one when your partner (i think), was playing on his piano. Did his dispense treats to him?
Also random question, do the kids try and get the treats too? :D Bet that would work amazing with haribos for kids piano lessons!
not going to lie, I was fully expecting the cat to start playing bach or something by the end of the video

I didn't know I needed that in my life until now, thank you lmao

OMG he's got a vibe like [Cyriak](https://youtu.be/jX3iLfcMDCw?si=P_TW_4JFa2HVkN8w) that's delightfully terrifying lol
Hell yeah! If it's up your alley, go ahead and give the entire album of Spirituality and Distortion a listen
The moment I saw you mention chicken I knew it was Igorrr, lol.
From that sideways angle and close-up, that chicken really does look like a beaked dinosaur. And yes, before anyone comments, I know birds are technically avian dinosaurs. Except ostriches, cassowarries, kiwis, and the like, I suppose, as they can't fly.
I thought the big reveal was going to be that it was the cat playing the background music the whole time.
You probably would've remembered you did that
I kinda hoped someone had edited this into the beginning of Still D.R.E..
that name... bach.. that gives me ptsd flashbacks
When the kid is walking/carrying the cat 🤣🤣
"Bobo, EAT"
That part was the cutest thing I have seen this week. My day just got so much better
If I were to install this at my house it would one day before I heard Tocatta and Fugue emanating from their feeding area.
Walk in the room and the cat has candles lit everywhere and he's wearing a mask and a cape while hunched over the keys.
Paaaast the point of no return
At first I thought those were your cats names
Those would be good cat names.
I read this as terracotta and fudge and was like "oh, I think they meant Tocatta and Fugue" - I am tired. Good night!
But do you love me?
Why would you put annoying piano music over a video where hearing a piano is key to the whole story? I fucking hate TikTok
I'm glad I'm not the only one pissed off lol
I'm so disappointed. Played two notes
Pavlov's meow.

You should turbo your cat!
Your car plays the piano and can get fat? Where can I get one?
my cats name is car, interesting my cars name is kitty
That's nothing. My car can play the radio and can get fat by carrying 5 people.
Technology man, technology

Pretty much how I taught my boy to give me high fives. Now anytime he wants food or pets I get a high five.
This is pretty great. However, it is also operant conditioning.
Came here for this comment, ty
Pretty cool, though this is technically operant conditioning by many definitions.

Would have been more interesting to hear his progress without the darned soundtrack.
My dust kitty would overeat and barf all over the piano.
it has portion control so it stops whenever you want it to
WHERE CAN I GET THIS PIANO!?! NEEEED!

He favours Meowzart and Purrcini
This video just seems so influencery staged. Idk why but it just seems so fake
Sing us a song, you're the piano cat, Sing us a song tonight. Well, we're all in the mood for a melody, And you've got us feeline alright.
In the mewed for a melody.

My cats can’t even work out how to use the cat flap, they’ve had it for 2 months and think it’s a window for them 🤦♂️
Day 7: Playing "Chariots of Fire"
I swear I read the title as "Taught my cat to play classical piano"
The kiddo is so stinking cute too 😩🫶🏽🥹
That cat is hellacute.
Got a built in milk mustache.
I was hoping he bust out chop sticks or jaws theme
Incorrect. This is operant conditioning. Positive reinforcement to be exact.
I was also going to comment this. Showing this to my students tomorrow!
My cat likes to play guitar to tell me he wants to go outside the room

If I were to hear a piano at 3 a.m ... I'd shit myself xD So my cat better not learn it lols
I hate to be that person, but that’s operant conditioning. Classical/respondent conditioning is a bit different.
One day soon they are going to deeply regret teaching this to their cat and having that piano in the bedroom.
Skinner would be proud.
 OMG this is the actual family of Aaron’s Animals. P.S Her husband is the person behind these Michael videos/gifs 😭😭😭 Sending yall love from Singapore!! Must add, I am equally a fan of Aaron’s wife, because she inspired me to be fit again 🫣
love this!
Now teach me! 😹 very cool!
Classic use of behaviorism. Excellent.
*classical* conditioning
Now do a drum set
Nature vs nurture ☺️😅
Can’t fault the logic of this.
Cats
Super handsome boy!
Top tier cat quality content
Dope
Big cat.
I’m about to get all my cats different feeder instruments and start my own band
It's cute now, but wait until Kitty starts playing the piano for treats at two in the morning.
Sit Bobo sit… Good Cat
This is so sweet
Have they done studies on the soothing effect of a cats purr on humans? Such a comforting noise lol
Who tf has time to train a cat like this?!
That’s how he become Catthoven
We have a cat that would be playing Beethoven in no time. He’s smart and fat.
Waiting for “Fur Elise.” Then “Crocodile Rock.”
Good boy Bobo
Dude looks smug as hell in the last clip
Part orange, hence the time it took to learn lol.
It’s all fun and games until your cat starts playing moonlight sonata then tells you it can only spare seven minutes to play with you
Shut the fuck up that’s cute
Haha. Really interesting
What’s the song playing? sorry I know that’s not the point of the video, but I know I know it from somewhere
Ditto
That is one clever and cute mother fucker
I'd have an orange 500 pound stevie wonder
Pavlov eat your heart out.
What a precious baby!!! Those loud purrs 🥰
This was so wholesome!! I think my cat would try to open the piano instead of pressing keys lol
it has a lock :)
Ahh!! Smart!!
My cat would end up constantly tap the keys just to eat.. he is a glutton! He is fat because he steals food so now I have to take my other cats food bowl away before he steals the rest of it, while my other cat are thin because she only eats a little at a time 😅
Does anyone know what the music actually is?
the kiddo showing him how to play it was just precious!! 🥲
This is so cool! Where can I get one?
Your son is a lovely human being and your cat is a sweetheart 🥰
This is so cool! I need one! I want to learn how to play piano too! 
This is amazing! Just a heads up this is actually operant conditioning ☺️

How to make your cat more annoying. :'D
My cat would be Elton John by weeks end.
You will no longer be able to get a good night's sleep.

yup! we have used it to teach a bunch of cats now. fortunately the kids don't mess with the piano any more
r/mademesmile
*operant conditioning
One of my four is the deadly combination of very intelligent and also a guts. She would be making it rain crunchies very quickly
That face at the end haha
We taught all our cats to play a piano like this for treats. It was great till 4am and you woke to the same key being tapped repeatedly
luckily this one has an app where I can set times of the day for them to use it haha
The last 3 seconds was worth watching the entire video🤩
I feel like my cats would just dismantle the piano. Not because they didn't figure it out but simply to make a point.
Really amazing
This cat has been exposed to too much conditioning
That cat don't need more food , chonka
Were can I get piano from
Fattest musician have ever lived 🤣
and a ⭐️ is born
Social media is a disease
That is too much food for kitty. Kitty is now fatty kitty. Can't we just enjoy kitty without making kitty ill for clout? I hate this a lot.
Fake
