A German acoustics expert has invented a hearing aid for cats.
The tiny device, which is implanted in the cat’s outer ear, was developed by Hans-Rainer Kurz, who has already had success with a similar aid for dogs.
Although Mr Kurz admits the device will not cure totally deaf cats he says it will help those with severe hearing difficulties.
[Full Story]
It has a special filament resonator precisely attuned to only hear the sound of can openers and to ignore the human voice, just like in real cat ears.

Great minds think alike, Jeff. We each saw this independently of each other (you before me) and came up with almost the same title. 🙂
