And how the heck did the dog or cat get under the keys?....:>

I went to pick up a Kimball console action and keys to make them "lighter".
While opening the piano, I was mildly interested in the exuberant claim for
some part of the piano and might have even been able to post it to the list
if it weren't for what I saw when I started removing the keys.

As the first four or five keys came out, I noticed something brown, took
more out and more brown. It seemed to be dog food.  More keys came out, more
dog (and cat and hair and miscl. coins) food.  Almost every last space under
the keys was filled with dried dog and cat food!  No wonder the dip was
shallow!

Customer brought me a tin pie plate and spatula, we removed about three
pounds of animal food.  Customer said "no wonder the dog and cats like the
piano so much!"
