Critters Inside Pianos
By Stephen Kent Goodman

Rocci Cirone wrote, "Two little mice were trapped in the piano..."

That's how I found out that rats make great pets -- with a natural,
hands_on (or perhaps I should say "tooth_on") appreciation of especially
the larger instruments with leather bellows.

Unlike wives, rats that are tamed who have previously lived in an old
automatic instrument, do not have to be "sold" on the merits of the
hobby.

Happy Gnawing!

S. K. Goodman
