Music for Cats — Electronic Press Kit

About the Artist

David Teie is a cellist with the National Symphony Orchestra and a pioneering researcher in species-specific music. His work with the University of Wisconsin-Madison and Louisiana State University produced the first peer-reviewed studies demonstrating that music composed specifically for cats has a measurable calming effect.

Music for Cats is the world's first album scientifically designed for feline listeners — blending cello with purring frequencies, suckling tempos, and the sonic textures cats naturally respond to. The result: music that genuinely reduces stress in cats, backed by published science, not marketing claims.
