My Single Mom Life

Do your pets watch tv?
Our cats do, they love watching tv, I am always catching Nova and Kali, especially, watching certain shows that I watch, or certain commercials, they actually pay attention.
A few days ago, my sister gave me the video that my cats absolutely love to watch, her cat Binky didn't pay any attention to it, so she gave it to me for my kitties.
It's called Video Catnip.
It's all birds and squirrels right up close.
I turn the volume up pretty loud at first so that if the cats are in another room or sleeping, they can hear it, and they come running to watch it.
They can hear the birds chirping and squawking, the woodpeckers chipping away at the trees, and the squirrels chewing on nuts or food, or scratching at a peanut.
They love this movie and it is so funny to put it on and watch them try to catch the animals.

I love having our digital cameras close by, I keep them right on the coffee table, my camera, Sebastian's, and even my cell phone has been used a few times to catch the kitties stalking their prey.
Check these few pics out from earlier this afternoon when I put the movie on.

Here's Nova the fat, no-tailed kitty just watching the birds at first.

And here she is trying to get up and close so she can "catch" 1 on a bird feeder.

Finally, here's Shahiro trying to get the birdie from another angle, from the side table, paw outstretched, trying to reach into the tv and get the birdie.
She kept pawing at the screen every time a bird or squirrel moved to the side of the stump they were on and eating the birdseed that was there, or if 1 of them moved to her side of the tv.

Hahah!
It is so funny when I put the video on for them, one of these days I really need to take a movie of it because all 3 of the cats will try and catch the birds and squirrels.
All 3 of them meow really loud when they try and catch 1 and they can't, they look at me as if to say;

"You saw me grab it with my paws right?! How come I didn't actually get it? I had it in my paws woman! I had it! What the hell kind of birdie is this that I can grab it and not get it?! I wants it! Gimme that squirrel!"

Oh, and they love the squirrels the best, every time there's a squirrel on the screen, they go nuts and will get up on the side table, the tv stand, they will go behind the tv to see if there's another way "in", they get on top of the tv, they jump at the screen, it's freaking hysterical to watch!
I promise, I'll try to get a video of them watching it and trying to catch their prey, it's the funniest thing ever.
