Spotify has made listening to music a lot easier, although at the moment it’s convinced that I only listen to stuff from the 192os, thanks to champagne-fuelled playlist decisions at 2AM on New Year’s Eve.

I’m not complaining, because there’s nothing wrong with The Cotton Club.

Now they’re expanding their range to include your fur-children, because what dog doesn’t love a good playlist?

According to The Verge, the app has released the new playlist generator specifically for your cat, dog, bird, hamster, or iguana.

To get a playlist for your pet, you have to head over to Spotify’s Pet Playlist website. It then presents you with five pet options — cat, dog, iguana, bird, or hamster — and asks you to define a few personality traits, like whether they’re energetic or relaxed, shy or friendly, and apathetic or curious.

You can then add your pet’s name and a photo, and Spotify will spit out a playlist icon with your animal’s name on it.

I know you’re probably going to want to do this immediately, so here’s a link to Spotify for Pets.

The playlist generator seems to grab songs that Spotify thinks you — the human owner and operator of the Spotify account — might enjoy, with how fast, slow, or varied they are, depending on the personality traits you chose. The site determined that my extremely energetic cat Pretzel would like Black Moth Super Rainbow, Das Racist, and The Smiths.

Dog owners can use the generator to create playlists for their pooches when they’re home alone. Who knows, maybe it will help with the howling?

In fact, while you’re at it, head on over to Pet Culture and stock up on everything you need to turn your home into the ultimate puppy hangout.

It’s worth it just to see those wagging tails when you get home.
