Yeah, like I ever really confine it to Fridays – cats are an everyday pleasure, especially for Bill Frist. Who?? Oh, how soon we forget…
This is from a Newswire press release:
Radio Station For Cats Audience Reaches 2.6 Million
NewswireToday – /newswire/ – Scottsdale, AZ, United States, 01/05/2007 – Cat Galaxy, the radio station for cats to enjoy has reached 2.6 million in audience numbers clearly showing that felines have made the station their choice for listening to their favorite music.
Cats are no doubt meowing and showing that Cat Galaxy is indeed their radio station of choice. As 2006 drew to a close, the radio station for cats not only passed the 2 million audience member mark but has also set a monthly, weekly and a 1 day record on its web site and increased its listenership by 40%, making it a strong force in the world of radio broadcasting. The station also far surpassed expected numbers coming into 2007 and now has an audience number of 2.6 million which has visited its website.
“It was a great year (in 2006) for Cat Galaxy and we definitely accomplished a lot. Part of the success is our format, which has always been for cats by cats. Another has been the stories we’ve written and the radio shows we’ve produced as well as the podcasts. We have a very great mix of stuff and the felines and their humans are enjoying it,” said Nohl Rosen of Cat Galaxy.
So what’s their playlist like? It seems felines are slaves to the beat:
Meow Mixing Monday
Meow Mixing Monday has some great mixes of music from Smooth Jazz to Alternative. Cats will certainly want to tune in as we present some colorful sets of the many genres we play on the station including Smooth Jazz, Classic Rock, Alternative, Funk, R&B, and Swing. We also present a set where all the music we play is mixed together so you never know what will be played. Come join us for a meowing good time.

Friday Night Feline Frenzy
Ever wonder what a cat does on a Friday night? Well the Friday Night Feline Frenzy might be the answer to this question. You will hear song sets from some of the greats of Funk, Smooth Jazz, Rock, Swing, Alternative and R&B. We also have songs from the 80’s as well. You might even hear the Feline Frenzy Mix which takes all the genres we play and mix them together. One song may be Rock and the next one following Smooth Jazz. So join us for some great music and a fun time.
Our cats do seem to like jazz it’s true and prefer the baroque composers to the occasionally frenetic romantics. Neither the cats nor I are fond of death metal and really we all prefer Radio 4.
Or maybe I’m just projecting.
