13 irresistible pictures of animals in instrument cases

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. Stealthy guitar case cat

Guitar case cat is watching you do your scales.
2. So, so tired

He looks tired, but he didn't skimp on his anorak game. Impressive.
3. If I fits, I sits

Mmm, that insulating material looks comfortable...
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. "Just five more minutes?"

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

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

"Yeah... I live in here now."
9. Dachshund in a violin case

Not much more explanation required, to be honest.
10. Smooth cat

This violin case is mathematically the exact right size for a cat to snuggle up in.
11. Surprised to see me?

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