Today, I bought a cat. Somehow that cat is now stuck inside my antique piano. I have to break the piano to get her out. FML

outthelabyrynth tells us more.

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

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,

The piano is lost but the cat can be saved. If the cat dies in there you're going to have to break it open anyway.

I hate to break it to you, OP, but the cat would have gotten out the same way she got in.

Never trust a feline. Terrible and nasty creatures

Leave her there ... Vaccume her out in 6 mo

I rebuild & tune pianos & I know for a fact they are built to be able to take apart piece by piece. If you destroy that beautiful piece of art just for a dumb cat, you're retarded!!

Trust me when i say.. if the cat got IN, it can get OUT, put some food nearby and just go away, it'll sneak out when its hungry. Not only that, pianos aren't put together in such a way you can't take them apart again.. if you break it.. well you ****** yourself there i'm afraid.

This is just one of the many reasons I don't like cats..

She'll probably come out in her own. Entice her with some tuna and she'll come out. When she does block the hole she got her way in by.
