In contrast, cats like to curl up when they hear the sound of orchestral music, or at least 31 per cent of them.
Hamsters are rap lovers at heart with 42 per cent reacting with excitement to rap music.
The excitement can be measured by anything from jumping up and down to tail-wagging or buzzing about the place.
The survey also discovered that the most popular choice of pet for a musician is a dog.
So if you're hoping to write a chart-topping hit - make sure to have your four-legged friend beside you.
