    13 irresistible pictures of animals in instrument cases

    Facebook share Twitter share

    Sometimes the inviting fluffy interior of an instrument case is just too much for our furry friends to deal with, and they just get straight in there. Here are the best times that happened.

    1. animals in instrument cases

      1. Stealthy guitar case cat

      Guitar case cat is watching you do your scales.

    2. animals in instrument cases

      2. So, so tired

      He looks tired, but he didn't skimp on his anorak game. Impressive.

    3. animals in instrument cases

      3. If I fits, I sits

      Mmm, that insulating material looks comfortable...

    4. animals in instrument cases

      4. That can't be comfortable

      It might not be a natural place for a dog, but a ukulele case is obviously good enough for this fellow.

    5. animals in instrument cases

      5. "Just five more minutes?"

      He's pleading, please just let him stay in the guitar case for a little while longer...

    6. animals in instrument cases

      6. An excellent mascot

      Even if you were the worst busker in the world, you'd get money thrown in your case for this guy.

    7. animals in instrument cases

      7. Studio dog

      You know how it is. Tough day of laying down tracks, you need a bit of a rest.

    8. animals in instrument cases

      8. Popping up

      "Yeah... I live in here now."

    9. animals in instrument cases

      9. Dachshund in a violin case

      Not much more explanation required, to be honest.

    10. animals in instrument cases

      10. Smooth cat

      This violin case is mathematically the exact right size for a cat to snuggle up in.

    11. animals in instrument cases

      11. Surprised to see me?

      "Surely you can't need to put your guitar away now?"

    12. animals in instrument cases

      12. "I don't care if you want to practice"

      So, looks like you need to find somewhere else to store your ukulele from now on.

    13. animals in instrument cases

      13. Not quite *in*

      But *on* an instrument case is good enough for us. Especially when they're enjoying it as much as this guy clearly is.
