Kitty and a Can

Lack of opposable thumbs does not stop this cat.

Update: There have been a few questions about the video that I can answer.

Is he OK? Yes. After the video he walked out of the room, laid down, and waited for me to clean the mess up. (Sorry for the spoiler there.)

What kind of cat is he? He's a "domestic shorthair" which is the nice way of saying he's a mutt. He and his sister were adopted from the local animal shelter as rescue animals so we don't have any information about his lineage.

Why did I cut the video short? Two reasons: 1) Nothing interesting was going to happen. The cat left the room and the spray stopped. 2) I had to clean up the mess. Trust me, nothing exciting happened after the cut.

Am I surprised by the number of views? Absolutely. The kitty, however, is celebrating his new-found fame in true feline fashion and has spent most of the weekend sleeping.

Yes, the video has been shortened and made into a GIF. I found it here, http://tumblr.4gifs.com/post/52992818... , but I don't know if that's the original.

Many thanks for the positive comments. For the haters, I can only hope tomorrow is a better day for you.
