Samantha Martin’s Rock Cats

I couldn’t get my cat to not throw up her hairball on our bed, so imagine my awe at Samantha Martin, who trained her "Amazing Animals," a group of 13 cats, to walk a tightrope, ride a skateboard, and play in a rock band:

It was just a half-hour before the opening of the sold-out show, and the normally close-knit band had completely fallen apart. The lead guitarist had shut herself in a dressing room and refused to come out. The pianist—in an apparent attempt to self soothe—groomed her hair obsessively. Meanwhile, the drummer had bolted off stage and hidden under the bleachers, where she ignored the pleas of two fawning assistants.Such temperamental, pre-show meltdowns have become typical of the Rock Cats, a trio that––even their manager admits––is known more for their looks than their rock ‘n’ roll talent.

"Their music sucks. I mean, when they’re playing, they’re not even playing the same song," said Samantha Martin, the band’s manager, who stood at the edge of the stage wearing a black velvet body suit and a headband topped with felt cat ears. "I don’t think they realize they’re supposed to play together."
