They used to have a longer version of this commercial, too. I remember back in the mid-1990's, Maine's NBC affiliates did a story about the cats in the commercial. By then the cats were around 10 years old or so and weren't so energetic!
I love this commercial. It was a must see for me when it used to air on local TV...I'd always stop what I was doing to watch it. It still brings a nostalgic smile to my face. I read an article a long time ago about how long it took the camera man to get this 30 seconds of video. I believe it took him all day. The kittens slept for hours and he didn't think he was going to be able to get the footage. I'm glad the video is on YouTube now so I can still watch it.
they are so cute

It turns out that the longer version does exist here on YouTube, and it has an older logo for Bangor Savings Bank at the end.

Our family always loved this commercial. It also reminded me of the Sesame Street spot where the kittens invade the doll house.

I can't believe they don't air this anymore.
They aired it for so long! They should just air it again..

I just love this commercial. I can't get enough of it. The photographer spent a long time trying to get these shots.

You know, I'd never thought about the fact that those cats are dead and gone. I feel empty and sad now. MERRY CHRISTMAS!

faked. Like the camera guy just HAPPENED to be there when they did this and didn't do anything while it happened. Americans r sheep.

It's common knowledge programmable robotic kittens were readily available at any point after 1973.
