True, but cats still rule!!

Nice how the cat, after having the crap scared out of him and leaping, positioned himself mid leap to confront the evil cucumber in case he needed to protect himself or attack.

Thirty domestic cats were videotaped while an experimenter shook a container. In some cases this action went along with a rattling sound. In others it did not, to simulate that the vessel was empty. After the shaking phase, the container was turned over, either with an object dropping down or not.
My cat was subjected to the same test, well sort of, and merely kept sleeping in her little bed............
She's the only cat that I've ever experienced that doesn't know how to play with her toys in my presence.
I'll come home from somewhere to find that she had played with her two unsqueeky toys but she won't do so when I'm around..........weird.

I rubbed Boo-Boo down with powdered garlic before she ran
outside this afternoon. She tries to avoid it; but is OK
with it after it’s over.

Cats interpret the cucumber as a snake and react accordingly.........

Yes, not terribly earthshaking “research”. It’s like saying “Cats understand law of thermodynamics and rapid oxidative reactions, because they don’t leap into the flames in your fireplace.”
To: BenLurkin; Chode; All
But We still need the answer to:
Cats always land on their feet.
Buttered bread always lands butter side down.
So what is the landed orientation of a cat with a slice of buttered bread strapped on it’s back ?
