Bwaaaaaaaaaaaah Cat watches Horror Movie



You know those moments when you’re watching a something scary but just can’t look away? That’s how it is for the cat in our lead video, whose eyes seem transfixed to a horror movie until the tension gets too much and it is forced to leap away. Perhaps the sinister strings on the soundtrack (which sounds like Hitchcock’s Psycho) got too much – or did it just spot a mouse?

the morning after the 2000 election when I turned my TV on and tried to grasp that I was being told Florida would have to recounted. (What a glorious moment of hope that was.)

Barks at dogs, horses and other assorted mammals. My terrier mix barks at HIM barking at the tv but doesn't watch telly at all.

The funniest thing my lab does is when the animal he's barking at disappears off the tv, he runs to each side of it looking to see which way they went!

2 of my cats will watch television when they see birds flying on them (I watch lots of nature documentaries).

Mainly the bird closeups.

One dog I used to take care of ruined 3 flat screened tvs. She would get so excited watching the dogs on TV that she would knock the screens over.

Because now we get:

"Cat Watching..." This video is no longer available due to a copyright claim by The Orchard Music.



In the meantime, let me share this one:

There the video was.

BTW, it is obvious the cat is being played with by someone with a toy of some sort for him. At the end of the video, after watching its "prey" for the entire video, he jumps at it.

Here is a link to the video on YouTube:
