Five years ago http://www.catgalaxymedia.com/ started up, offering its listeners great programs such as Meow Mixing Monday, Wednesday Night Cat Attack, Thursday Night Purr Party, and the Friday Night Feline Frenzy. All 24/7.
I have to admit, I've tuned in and have to say, the eclectic program list is pretty good. But it's the program intros, seemingly produced by Icarus the American Short Hair, that will either intrigue you or send you off the deep end.
Now you dog lovers shouldn't feel left out. From Thailand comes a station that claims to be the first broadcaster that programs music specifically for a canine audience. Seriously though, the station does raise money for local animal shelters.
A Thai entrepreneur has launched an Internet radio station to put dogs in a better mood. Anupan Boonchuen, director of a dog-grooming school, said he launched http://dogradiothailand.com/ because he has seen music improve the mood of dogs he grooms. The programming on dogradiothailand.com is mainly Thai pop music, but Boonchuen plans to expand offerings in which the disc jockey will "talk to the dogs in Thai," and canine listeners will be encouraged to respond. "If we play a slow song, we may have the DJ howl," he said, "because dogs howl, too, when they hear sad sounds.
What's next, the all night Hampster wheel of music for all your nocturnal rodent pets or how about talk radio for your parrot (just no Howard Stern, please!)
Enjoy,
