The cat always wins these confrontations, but the balloon doesn’t make it easy for him. Note the interplay between curiosity and caution (curiosity always wins). And causing the balloon to burst doesn’t always scare the cat. Sometimes it positively mystifies him.
Imagine you’re a cat trying to make sense of a balloon. It can’t be easy for them.
Poor Babies. lol
That last cat didn’t seem to be frightened by the balloons clinging to it, but it was definitely burdened. 🙂
He was trying to pretend it wasn’t getting to him.
