Meet Margot, KBACH’s October Cat of the Month! 🎃

When she’s not welcoming guests like the refined hostess she is, Margot can be found drifting off to “The Nutcracker” or “Swan Lake” — dreaming of mice and birds in equal measure.

Add in a few treats and some chin scratches, and you’ll win her heart faster than a Tchaikovsky crescendo.

Do you have a classical-music-loving cat? Nominate them to be our next Cat of the Month! Simply leave their picture and description in a comment below, and we just might feature them as our November Cat.

📻 If you need another reason to be thankful for radio, here it is: On this day in 1954, Jessye Norman received a radio for her 9th birthday. And that's how she fell in love with opera. During her career, Norman's voice sent chills around the world.

Today would have been her 80th birthday. 🕊
