The internet loves cats, and that is a fact. Some parts of the internet like dogs, but cats are easily the dominant internet species, surpassing even humans. It probably has something to do with internet people spending a lot of time indoors (like cats), while normal people sometimes spend time outside (like dogs). The internet actually loves cats so much that something can become a viral hit simply by being related to them, no matter how weird or silly it is.
One Kickstarter page is learning this firsthand. The page is titled “Music For Cats,” and it was started in hopes of raising $20,000 to pay for an album of music specifically designed to appeal to cats. To come up with the songs, a composer named David Teie had to utilize another thing that the internet loves: science. Teie developed a theory that certain songs are more comforting to humans because their drumbeats match the pace of a mother’s heart beat they would’ve heard in the womb, and he later used that theory to create music specifically designed to appeal to monkeys. Now Teie wants to turn this into an actual business, which is why he has turned to cats.
