Welcome to In Tune, your weekly classical news feed on CBC Radio 2. Saturdays at noon, Katherine Duncan shares the classical music and musicians people are listening to and talking about, here in Canada and around the world. Here's a look at the stories we're featuring this week.

This week, it's a special edition of the show, dedicated to the connections between classical music and your favourite feline!

Does your kitty get skittish when you take her to the vet? According to a new study, classical music might help.

You'll find out why classical music is not just for Aristocats! Homeless cats at the San Francisco SPCA's Cat Behavior Department enjoy it too.

The true story of a fugue, composed by a cat. Domenico Scarlatti heard the melody when his pet cat, Pulchinella, walked up and down his piano keys. Not unlike the many videos of cats you can find on YouTube, all no doubt inspired by the original Nora the Piano Cat. 

What is it about having a cat, that can make you want to have more cats? That's one of the cat-human psychological phenomena researchers have been studying. Russian composer Alexander Borodin's many pet cats ruled the roost, but they may also have inspired one of his most beautiful melodies. After all, there's nothing quite as peaceful as the sight of a sleeping kitten.

Mythbusters! While titles like "Mi-a-ow" and "Kitty's Waltz" may fool you, neither of those two movements from Faure's Dolly Suite are actually about cats.

A feline-tastic evening? That's what Denver's Center for Animal Wellness is offering: a multi-media cats-only event with a prrrfectly charming classical soundtrack.

And, A Day in the Life of Leo, a CD of classical music designed for you and your cat to listen to together. 

 

Dear world,

How do you spell candy with only two letters?

Dear 9th grade English teacher who told me all books have a hidden sexual meaning and if I don't find it I'm not reading it properly.,

Thanks a lot. It's been 4 years and I still can't read without my mind morphing the book into something sexual.

Sincerely, "Let the creamy gravy ooze on the chicken breast" This cookbook is obviously about sex.
