Cat in Zero G

It's almost cruel, but I challenge you not to laugh.

Can't stop laughing... and I had cats as pets as a kid, so I can understand the dismay the cat is facing when he sees the ground, but can't quite get his paws to land on it...

Is it just me or did they "push" that cat at the wall a tad hard the first time? Funny though. I bet once they got back to 1G that fuzzy guy ran and hid and couldn't be found for hours.

Hilarious video!

If you think that's funny, my neighbors kid catches cats, ties their tails together, slings them over his mom's clothes line and videotapes them as they try to kill each other.

HAHAHA! Sounds cruel, but he's a great kid and loves animals - he ties baby booties on the cat's paws so they can't really hurt each other and releases them after a short video.

All in good fun and no harm to the cats.

I'd throw him in a van with a black sack over his head, drive him to a remote locations, duct tape him to a chair in a dark room with a bright light, then realistically threaten to burn his eyes out with a hot poker for a while. THen I'd let him go and say, "no harm, it was just a little fun. I just don't understand why you soiled yourself."

Boy that would be funny.

That kid is going to be a drain on society - you can see it coming a mile away. Future Michael Vicks of the world.

Hopefully someone puts him in his place.

+2.

That kid is disturbed; perhaps mildly now, but without attention, it could become a serious threat to animals and others.

I specifically disclaim any authority on mental disorders, but I have read several sources that say that cruelty or indifference to animal pain/suffering/trauma is a reliable early indicator of predisposition to mental disorder; especially the types of issues that come on strong with the hormones of puberty.

Back to the video -- I dayum sure would have taken a de-clawed cat for a zero-g experience, or they'd likely have had to clean a whole lot of blood off of those white pads.

You're joking right? You don't see a problem here?

i think DARSIC is being sarcastic. and criticizing anyone who finds the video funny.


i spend a few minutes every day thinking of new ways to mentally screw with my cat. sometimes i go down to the coffee shop and pet some strange dog til i get the scent on my hands. then i go home and chase him around the apartment. people in zoos call this enviromental enrichment.

I am so using this line to explain/justify so much of what I do on a day-to-day basis!

And people "in" zoos are typically referred to as "inmates" or "patients" no?

Thanks V!

You were doing good until you said that, although the "enviromental (sic) enrichment" comment is funny.

Souns like a great kid. He'll grow up to be the next Jeffrey Dahmer. If the parents allow it, they should be kneecapped.

Seems like those folks in the vomit comet should have been doing some real science.
