Because they are not the same notes, strictly speaking. A440 vibrates at 440hz whereas A an octave higher vibrates at 880hz. Different resonant frequency.
It'll likely still vibrate though. You're only considering the first mode. If I hit one E string on a guitar, and I'm not holding/damping the other, it'll vibrate too.That's part of the reason why all the strings/twangy things in a piano have dampers.
If you press the damper pedal and play middle C the other Cs will get terribly excited.

Is it possible that my neighbour's pet 'dog' is a Chupacabra?
I wouldn't have thought so. Wikipedia said:
The most common description of chupacabras is a reptile-like creature, appearing to have leathery or scaly greenish-gray skin and sharp spines or quills running down its back. This form stands approximately 3 to 4 feet (1 to 1.2 m) high, and stands and hops in a similar fashion to a kangaroo. In at least one sighting, the creature was reportedto hop 20 feet (6 m). This variety is said to have a dog or panther-like nose and face, a forked tongue, and large fangs. It is said to hiss and screech when alarmed, as well as leave behind a sulfuric stench. When it screeches, some reports assert that the chupacabras' eyes glow an unusual red which gives the witnesses nausea.
Another description of chupacabras, although not as common, describes a strange breed of wild dog.
This form is mostly hairless and has a pronounced spinal ridge, unusually pronounced eyesockets, fangs, and claws. It is claimed that this breed might be an example of a dog-like reptile. Unlike conventional predators, the chupacabra is said to drain all of the animal's blood (and sometimes organs) usually through three holes in the shape of an upside-down triangle or through one or two holes.

It is possible that they've imported it, as people do with other exotic pet breeds, isn't it?
Look at the Bengal cats thing - it could be a dog/chupacabra hybrid?
It does say it's a 'strange breed of wild dog'.

Is this one of Carthage's legendary little jokes where she tricks a stupid man into telling her something obvious? Cos I'm struggling princess, I can't figure out whether to feel sorry for you for being stoopid or dismiss you as being boring.
I'm sorry, Papa Hotel, don't be grumpy. Is this one of Carthage's legendary little jokes where she tricks a stupid man into telling her something obvious? Cos I'm struggling princess, I can't figure out whether to feel sorry for you for being stoopid or dismiss you as being boring.
(Incidentally, the dog does bear a startling resemblance to the description, and pics of Chupacabras).
