A Philadelphia cat has become an Internet star after surprising her owners by teaching herself to play the piano.

Nora,the cat,has been playing the piano for nearly two years after watching her owner,Besty Alexander,give piano lessons to students.

But piano teacher Betsy Alexander and her husband said they were greatly surprised when they realized Nora had real musical talent.

“After about a year of being here,she started playing the piano.I didn't teach her it at all,”said Alexander.“Nora always sits on the chair when she plays.She plays so much at a student's lesson.I have to pull the chair away.”

About three weeks ago,Nora became a“famous”animal when Alexander posted home video of Nora's piano playing on the Internet website YouTube.

Since then the video has been played more than 650,000 times and e-mails have poured in from all over the world.“We're having fun that she has become pop in one night,”she said.However,Alexander said fans shouldn't expect a concert tour by Nora very soon.

費(fèi)城的一只貓因自學(xué)彈鋼琴而讓主人大吃一驚,之后,它成了互聯(lián)網(wǎng)上的明星。

這只名叫諾拉的貓通過觀察主人貝斯蒂·亞歷山大給學(xué)生上鋼琴課學(xué)會了彈鋼琴,這種情況已經(jīng)持續(xù)將近兩年了。

鋼琴教師貝斯蒂·亞歷山大和她丈夫說,當(dāng)他們意識到諾拉真的具有音樂天分時,他們大為震驚。

“來到這里大約一年后,它開始彈鋼琴。我根本沒有教它,”亞歷山大說,“諾拉彈琴時總是坐在椅子上。它老是在我教學(xué)生時霸著鋼琴,最后我不得不把椅子拽走?!?/p>

大約三周前,亞歷山大把諾拉彈鋼琴的視頻貼到了YouTube的網(wǎng)站上,從此諾拉名聲大噪。

到目前為止,這段視頻已經(jīng)被點(diǎn)擊了65萬多次,世界各地的電子郵件蜂擁而至?!八灰钩擅?,我們也覺得很有趣?!彼f。然而,亞歷山大覺得,諾拉的粉絲們還不能指望它很快就進(jìn)行巡回演出。
