Close the case with the cat in it and swing the case around for 5 minutes. Open the case and watch the fun.

Is this the followup to the thread about the Scruggs banjo in an unopened box? There was a cat inside after all!

Be Careful!

I had a Gibson banjo case back in the early 1980s which my future wife's pet cat peed in. I called my friend Harold at Gibson in Kalamazoo. They thought that was the funniest thing they ever heard! They sent me a shop worn banjo case that they kept at the work bench to put necks in as they worked on them to protect. It ended up being brand new case sent to me. The invoice said Replacement for kitty liter banjo case. No Charge Warranty. That's what true customer service was back in those days.

Same with my Calton. I took it immediately to a local vet, who had some heavy-duty stuff that worked quite well.

Our cat barfed in my case. I usually kept it closed, but it just took the one time.

thats why you don't own a cat...they own you or just tolerate you

Boy, the ole' BHO sure has taken a turn toward high class discussion!  I was particularly impressed by the call-back to that German gentleman's mystery cat.
