I’ve been playing the Electone since I was six, mainly performing Disney music, anime songs, and music from dramas and films. I post performance videos on YouTube and social media, and I also give concerts. Building on my Electone experience, I took up synthesizer and piano during my student years and performed at school-sponsored events. As a writer, I’ve covered not only music-related topics but a wide range of genres, so I hope to draw on my experience to deliver articles that make readers think, “I want to try that!” or “I want to listen to that!”

What kind of hair do dogs have that cats don’t?

ear hair
nostril hair
eyelashes

See the answer

eyelashes

Dogs have eyelashes that protect their eyes and help keep debris out, but cats generally do not have eyelashes. In cats, the hair above the eyes serves the function of eyelashes, so they get by just fine without dog-like lashes. As a result, cats’ eyes tend to look neat and clear, giving them distinctly expressive faces.

How many times does a cat give birth on average in a year?

2 to 4 times
3 to 6 times
9 to 12 times

See the answer

2 to 4 times

It’s said that cats can give birth 2 to 4 times a year. They reportedly have three or more kittens per litter. Also, because ovulation in cats is induced by mating, the pregnancy rate is said to be almost 100%. Keeping a single cat indoors is fine, but if you have both a male and a female or let your cat go outside, you’ll need to take proper measures, or things could get out of hand quickly.
