It drove Etruscan scientists just about mad, trying to find out why cats wedge themselves into unlikely places. In fact, it’s why their civilization is no longer with us. Cat motives continue to mystify human observers.

Wake Up, Kitty
Us people who love cats make no apology for falling for videos like this one. I’m sure there are folks who love wildebeests and feel the same for videos about sleepy gnus. Cuddle up, everybody.
Cats vs. Wild Animals
I’d rather my cats didn’t mess with wildlife. Yes, it’s funny when a cat chases a bear–who is obviously convinced the cat is crazy. But facing down a cobra or an alligator… those stakes would be a bit too high for me. Talk about self-confidence!
When You’re Up a Tree, Climb Down
Hah! Easier said than done! How many cats have you seen strand themselves up a tree? Our cat Henry used to get way, way up there–it gave me the horrors. But he was always able to get back down.

These Cats Are Toast
Somewhere there are cats who don’t freak out when the toaster pops. One of them in these videos interprets it as an invitation to take the toast and run away. But you have to admire their reflexes: every bit as good as having nine lives.
Treasure Trove?
Our cat Robbie used to pile her toys in a hiding place. Is that what this cat is doing? What’s in the big plastic box–the other toys? And is she trying to take something out or put something in?
