Does your pet listen to your system?

Not sure if this has ever been a thread for discussion.
We have a pet cat.  Her name is Mina.
She sits in the sweet spot, on the floor, when my system is running, playing music.
I swear she likes to listen to music! 
No, she doesn't tap her paw on the ground or anything like that, but to me it looks like she enjoys the music!
Anyone else out there have a pet that listens to music with them?
No official study, just curious.......

My boxer loves Bluegrass music. He has a special fondness for Doc Watson. As soon as the needle hits the record he runs up to listen and sits memorized in front of the speakers!!

My previous cat would run to the music room when he heard a string quartet playing. We realized he’d become deaf when he stopped doing that.

The current cat comes in to listen, too, but like a middle-aged suburbanite, he falls asleep as soon as the music starts.

@yogiboy - I’d say your boxer has good taste.

My dog throws toys around the room when I listen. She’s either trying to get my attention, or she’s dancing!

As long as the volume was kept low, one of my former Boston Terriers use to come to the room consistently and lay down on the floor too close to one of my sub-bass units. Kept it extra low to not hurt her sensitive ears.  She would go to sleep almost immediately every time.
