New Cat

That's funny, Butterfly. :laugh: But I'm glad you never had to use pepper spray.
Cats can sometimes be really nervy and brave. Remember Tara the Hero Cat?

I remember Tara.

I've seen videos of cats chasing skunks, big dogs, even bears - they must have some sort of suicidal streak in them.

The thing is, cats have never seen themselves so don't realise how small they are.:bigwink:

I also think cats are intrinsically arrogant. They often think they are invincible.

Unlike those of us who KNOW we are ... :applouse:

Came across this video of cat commercials that I've not seen before - some great ones!

Love em Philly! My favourite is the girl on the pink bike with the kitten sporting a moustache.

I liked the "herding cats" one!

Yep, roomie has gone and done it. After telling her that I wanted a period of time without any animals she brings home a stray cat.

I guess she thought 2-3 months was a sufficient amount of time.

Anyway, the girl who originally found him named him "Mr. Midnight", a sort of bleh name if you ask me - I would prefer CAPT. Midnight. But then, I call all cats "Mao" (The Chinese word for "cat").

He's a black and white critter and has a very good disposition. I'll post pics when I can.

Hmmm, I hadn't seen this thread before....

2-3 months was a sufficient amount of time.

2 or 3 decades without cats is a good start! I do like cats, am just allergic to all aspects of them.

I have a cat that is a maoist, her nickname is Chairman Meeow.....

These are excellent, Phil, thanks so so much. I liked the cat roundup --- so funny.

 

[SifuPhil]

I too favored a few of them - "Cats with Thumbs" had that Python-esque twist; "Herding Cats" made me cry with laughter; "Silly Stuff" (bike cat), but of course I like anything with a Starship soundtrack and the message that we need silliness in our lives.

The Sheba commercial (dancing girl) I liked as well, but for more ... ahem ... physical reasons ...

It's twisted, just like me - sort of a blog, I suppose.

That's a shame.

That's hilarious!

Even the quick one of the guy making dinner and "Uh it isn't what it looks like!!!!!".

I do think some cats know they are invincible. I took Levon for a ride the other day to drop off my daughter. Next to the school is a pond. There was this flock of geese. I parked there for awhile to see if he would notice. He hopped right in my lap and the geese had his full attention. His whiskers were twitching, tail twitching, chirping to himself. Even if he ended up pecked to death, you know he wanted to take on every one of them.

He would have gone down swinging, ensuring his place in Kitty Valhalla.

Two of my favorite things - cats and pizza!

What meanies, tease the poor kits with a slice and take it away. Very funny though...the eating off the paw thing. Stumpy can eat half a can of Alpo that way...obviously part dog.
