Amazing advert, this so makes me want to move in my own flat right now (allready own it, but im not allowed to move in there yet xD ) and buy my own little cat (which I will surely do)
@ShareYourUnderwear i think you would notice your cat if you see it. And you havent seen the cats long enough to notice the differences between them ^^
To everyone who worried about people with allergies having an allergic reaction to the cat dander, remember this was done in England. The conversation would go like this:
Customer: Excuse me, Salesperson, but I seem to be having an allergic reaction to one of your chairs.
Salesperson: Oh, yes. We had about 100 cats roaming around in here last night. It was great fun!
Customer: Oh, terribly sorry. I didn't realize. Sounds like a smashing good time. I'll just take this chair then.
@darkxhampster Not all of them are. I see a lot of Turkish Vans in there. You could tell they choose mostly light white and tan colored cats save for the few tabbies and calicos. There's plenty of Europeon short haired cats (a.k.a your common house cat) too.
Damn....its so Angelic..........oh my gosh.........all that fluff....simply majestic , i cant get over this! its jus tooo beautiful GRACEFUL!!! Breathtaking!
@XceptingDeniall You're right, it would be very stressful for my cat. She wouldn't like it at all. But my sister's cat would revel in it. In watching this video you could see by their behaviour both with their owners and running around Ikea that they were enjoying it. Cats are naturally curious, and I think if an owner saw his or her cat didn't like it, they'd take them home.
@TheLiakatz how are they poor? they got a chance to interact and explore a totally new area, must have been exciting for them. (and they would have had plenty of room to escape from aggressive cats)
What surprises me is how they never showed the cats breaking or shredding anything! LOL I mean they crawled over everything and NONE of them broke ANYTHING?!
If I saw those naughty kitty babies start fighting each other and bullying each other, I'd start smacking em! Yeah I believe in corporal punishment! Because the Bible says 'Spare the rod, spoil the kitty'
What happened to these cats after the ad shoot? Did Ikea help to find them homes? Where did they even come from? This kind of borders on abuse anyway you look at it. Cats aren't dogs and they're not playthings to be herded around like cattle either. Anyone know the background on this ad?
@adamatova A lot of the cats (64) were owned by a lady who trains them for such things. She said in this documentary that all though some of the cats did fight that they were all cared for well by the owners. She happened to own the sphynx cat as well.
personally I think it's a wonderful idea that has worked well.
@Lukasz1234577 - It worked well for the company - nobody knows how these cats are kept and how they fared after the shoot aside from what is written in the media. Let Ikea show the people how these cats live day to day. Bottom line it's exploitation of animals and should be banned. It's the same kind of entertainment that sinks into the consciousness of kids who see this kind and think anything is fair game and that animals are here to exploit.
@adamatova You seriously believe that? This episode wouldn't have made any difference to how the cats were being treated at home. I'd be happy to let my two awesome cats join in, if only I'd seen the volunteer signs Xo
It was a good ad by the end (wasn't it in the top 20?), very cute, and the cats seemed happy in it, but the making of it...I can't help but wonder what they did when they started fighting. Stand there and laugh? But knowing animal-lovers were involved makes it easier to enjoy. My cats would be terrified, but I guess that's just their personalities.
Knowing that high level feline stress does produce weakened immune systems hence illness, and since cats are territorial, this experimental ad presentation must have been extremely stressful for them! Although it did appear that they were closely monitored and well cared for by their keepers, I don't find the idea particularly clever or humanitarian.
Me own big Chinese resturant, you herd cats into back door of my resturant, I cooky up kittys good! You like my cat with Chinese vegtables! Taste just like Chicken! You bring Hop-Sing 10 cats, you eat for free! No more stinky, smelly cats around to bother you! Thank-You! Contact Hop-Sing 1010 Martin Luther King Drive Detroit Michigan. We will Bar-B-Que them for you black people! We Deliver to white neighborhoods only! Hop-Sing tired of getting robbed in black neighborhoods!
@roni1983 Hmm, I think it's kind of hard to explain. I think it means that when cats are really relaxed, like the white cat and the orange cat in the bed at the end, that means that they're in a familiar place, like home. So that's what IKEA is trying to show? You're right, when you think about it, it's kind of hard to really explain the point of the commercial. But it's still a really nice one :)
@pemchem Your logic doesn't add up. There is also dark furniture in the store. White hair on dark furniture is just as much a bitch to get off as dark hair on white furniture.
REAL Free energy technology exists!But the big oil corporations don't want that technology revealed,Go to LT-MAGNET-MOTORdotCOM and get the blueprints for a genuine magnet motor ,Be a part of the energy revolution!
@mermaydlondon The problem is, the commercial took place in a real environment where thousands of shoppers actually walk through and eventually 1 of them is bound to have cat allergies I guess. Haha. XD
what if someone highly allergic to cats went shopping the next day, sits on a couch then has a bad reaction and God knows what else? what then? IKEA just goes 'hmmm no idea how that could have happened'
@LOZlaura If you noticed afterward they were vacumning and probably made sure the place was super clean just in case something like that happened. In my opinion, it is a great commercial and I absolutely love cats anyways.
OK rant over, I own a beautiful cat who will not do anything he doesn't want to. If I'd taken him along he would have either stayed in his carrier or found somewhere to curl up and go to sleep. I think this ad is fantastic and not in any way cruel.
Free inexhaustible energy is real!But the coverup is very strong,Go to LT-MAGNET-MOTORdotCOM and get the blueprints for a genuine magnet motor ,The revolution begins!
"Soon shoppers would stream through the doors again, unaware that half an hour before a hundred felines were roaming free in the shop." This is madness! (Or possibly Sparta.) Won't someone please think of the allergics! I'm so not going to IKEA now.
Ikea is a great place to take your cat - my cat and I often go there at weekends. Sometimes he likes to go off and do his own thing like playing in the soft play area, other times he will just relax on one of the beds reading a glossy magazine. Often, he likes to walk round the store with me, picking out fixtures and fittings for our new pad. He has a real eye for contemporary interior design and is considering a career change in that area.
@qetzel I have to say I did find it weird how there wasnt that much variation with the cats. I was expecting alot of tabbies since they're so common....but no. This makes me feel Ikea was specifically looking for whites cats for some reason. I wonder how many were females or males.
@qetzel don't be such a twat! The cats were all colours and sizes. There WERE ginger ones who are the butt of many jokes. Don't make it into something it is not.
@qetzel It sounds like you don't know that cats come with cat HAIR. They shed. A lot. So it would make sense to have white cats when a lot of the furniture is light colored. Yes, there will still be hairs that the cleaners won't be able to get off, but they won't show as much as dark hairs. Know what I mean?
Wow everyone needs to chill out... you can see that the cats are not stressed... they're exploring. And as for the person who says they will get injured and left behind don't be so stupid, why is it any different from wondering round a house full of furniture? And clearly they're not just going to leave a cat in the store. I am a massive animal lover and stand against any sort of animal cruelty and can see this is a great advert :) x
Really cool advert, not so cool experiment in terms of stress given to the cats. :(
Still, we are slaves to cats and their cute fluffy selves are the cause of much havoc for us at home, as far as i know my cat does nothing all day while I feed and house it, so they need to give back to a worldwide community at some point. :D
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Stupid, cruel and pointless. The cats were stressed, and I wonder how many were left behind because they were terrified to come out of wherever they hid? IKEA has crappy furniture and it's all made in China anyway. Me and my cats never go there.
Very nice film going to watch the advert now. Kunzy 3000 I hope a frozen chunk of shit falls out of an aircraft lands on your head and doe's us all a favour.

Still, we are slaves to cats and their cute fluffy selves are the cause of much havoc for us at home, as far as i know my cat does nothing all day while I feed and house it, so they need to give back to a worldwide community at some point. :D

the cats are confused, scared, they could get serious injuries if they stuck, and they are (naturally) fighting. yeah, real cute and funny.

Stupid, cruel and pointless. The cats were stressed, and I wonder how many were left behind because they were terrified to come out of wherever they hid? IKEA has crappy furniture and it's all made in China anyway. Me and my cats never go there.
