Okay, maybe break the piano was a bit of a drastic solution. It's really heavy and my dad got it as a gift from one of his patients, so I'm not really familiar with the thing. It's really old and out of tune, we do get it tuned once in a while, but it doesn't make any difference. We are trying to find someone who's interested in it, since we don't use it anymore, and for that reason we had placed the piano in a side part of the house. I'm a responsible cat owner and I know that when you get a new cat you have to let it get used to your house room by room. Unfortunately for us, it was the piano room... I still have no idea how she got in, since the piano is a really massive thing, no holes or stuff like that. We had to take of the front (which also happens when it gets tuned) to get her out, but she was completely fine and so was the piano, so, that turned out all right :) For those of you who were asking if I bought or adopted the cat, I meant bought. I really think adopting is better! But this cat species is hypo-allergic, and since my dad is allergic to cats, this was the only way we could get one. I've wanted a cat for whole my life and after 16 years, my dream came true, and everyone here loves our little kitty :) I laughed at all your musical kitty jokes, and thanks for all the advice! Happy holidays xxx

no. no, you don't have...
It's probably just scared. Let it come out on its own
Is the cat ok? Can't u get some sort of specialist to take her/he out, or is breaking the antique piano the only way?
YDI for not acclimatizing & monitoring the kitten appropriately. They are like kids & need to be trained! Constant vigilance goes a long way. YDI for buying instead of adopting too.
Usually, there is an adoption fee ... maybe that's what OP meant by "bought." Or maybe they originally said "adopted" and it got changed in the editing process. And I'm not sure how they deserved it even if they did buy the cat from a pet store.
Well I take it you have to leave the piano closed for now on...there is probably a way to get the cat out without breaking it...unless the cat is in a drastic place...
maybe the cat will come out on its own!
Open a can of tuna and put it near the piano. Tuna is a powerful motivator and if the cat could find a way in it will find a way out when properly motivated.
Even of I adopted I might still say bought, as there is an adoption fee. Although I think "I got a cat" is typically what I personally use. Also just use tuna, cat will come out on it's own purrfectly fine ;3
YDI. You should have known cats are evil.

Feed her inside the piano and let her grow up to be one musical kitty.
That sounds like A Major catastrophe, OP. With a dilemma of this scale, patience and delicacy is key,
