DOWNTON TABBY — I wouldn't say I am a cat person, but not because I don't necessarily like them. I just don't want one.
However, I do identify with cats considering I love to nap, people generally annoy me, and I love it when people feed me. Another thing cats and I share is the fact we get scared easily. Sneak up on me and I'll have an aneurysm, much like a cat.
Thanks to this video, I now know something else we in common: We don't handle scary movies well.
The video is a few years old, but it's important the public sees it. This cat is being filmed as it watches a scary movie. Watch the feline's eyes dart all over and somehow get bigger as it anticipates the next move.
It's clear that this furry thing is not comfortable. I'm also not comfortable, because this is basically a video of me watching a horror movie — except I am much less adorable and would produce more yelps and tears. So, I'm not even a scaredy-cat; I'm at a whole new level.
Go ahead and make fun of me, I deserve it. But this 1-minute video also deserves your attention. You'll laugh and the "adorable"-reading lobe of your brain will get close to exploding. Thank goodness this video is only a minute long.
