Aaawhhhh!!! Isn't it a marvel how they can seem so lazy, fuzzy, and totally zen at one moment, like a little senior... but when you are not watching, they dart and fly and jump, keeping those bones supple and those muscles lean. What's the name of your chubby buddy?
@@greenserenity Her name is Wanda. She just wandered into my home one day and wouldn’t leave. A friend of mine suggested the name. We were sitting having beers and this cat wandered by and sat down and started cleaning herself. My friend said, “When did you get a cat?” I replied “I’ve never seen this cat before.”
I honestly never knew just how smart cats are,until I acquired one after my little dog died,he's so intelligent and loving,I have high anxiety levels do to ptsd and o other illness I have,and he is like my little therapeutic fury brother from another,and brought me out of many anxiety attacks,by jumping on my lap and purring while I stroke him,I strongly recommend a cat to anyone who has anxiety issues!
My cat leaves the house first thing in the morning and patrols the farm and kills and eats all the rodents and weasels and yet never harmed any of my chickens, weasels are one of chickens biggest threats around here.
Well cat is amazing hunters plus they were smarter than rat who only how to destroy apartments or houses that’s why cat can handle how to get rid of the rodents
They go from beng household pets to wild animals once they step outside your house. At that point they become like tigers in a jungle. But the jungle that your pet uses as a blind is suburban shrubbery as lethal as the Sundarbans.
its a feline that is small enough and cute enough so we dont mind them.. they adapted to live with us without beeing exactly domesticated, to me house cats are the most successfull predators in the whole history of life in earth!
My yard has lizards, cockroaches and birds they love to hunt on. At times i worry that rhey canr surive if something happens to me but it seems cats can survive just fine
I came here after watching a short video of the black footed cat, which has a 60%+ kill ratio. Still, that's nothing compared to the frogfish and dragonflies, the latter having a 95% to 97% kill ratio. I stopped walking near the river when I heard that about dragonflies, I really don't want to be eaten.
Disclaimer: I love cats. According to the current cat science, cats are indeed hunters. However, this means they want to do three things: 1. Claim prey (whether it’s a mouse or YOU with your “owner” delusion). 2. Kill their prey, usually by snapping their neck. And 3. Eat their prey. Pet cats are known for trying 1 (licking, head-bumping) and 2 (biting), but most pet cats in a sheltered domestic setting, couldn’t even finish 2, much less approach 3, when interacting with their owners or other people. From what science can determine, when cats rub against a person, fellow animal, or inanimate object, in their view, they own it. When a cat meets a rival or another but unfamiliar cat, caterwauling, or yowling, sometimes ensues, and oftentimes leads to physical altercations. When so engaged, they could appear oblivious to their surroundings. I submit that this is because they’re arguing over who owns all of it. A cat’s claims of ownership may extend to nearby people, places, potential mates, other objects, etc.
Hi. How is this womans voice calm and gentle. I did not know that cat could hear ultrahigh sounds. Now I know. Have a nice summer and take care of your selves, family, friends and the nature. Kind greetings from Hans Christian Denmark 05-06-2024 clock 07.45 PM. Ohh there is a football mach between Sweden and Denmark. 1/1. Try to play football with your Feline. Cats have talents. They are extreme fast❤❤❤
The Cat's success rate is WAYYY more than 32%.Have no idea where the narrator came up with that low percentage. It certainly DOESN'T apply to cats in general. It more like 75% minimum. My cat is at least that or higher. In other words, if she tries to kill something 10 times, she succeeds close to 8 times. she is a killing machine. LOL
probably only in cities where the only things they can catch are pigeon and rats (both are fearless, stupid and vulnerable) yet city cats rarely go on a hunt as its easier for them to ask food from humans - with going outside and asking for food from humans their success rate is somewhere around 83% in the wild iirc the highest success rate is from some species of a wild cat and its roughly 60% and its like hellofalot in the wild where their prey also evolves to not die all the time
The first thing my cat would do once it went out was hunt. A happy cat is one that can get outside and hunt. The downside is there at both ends of the food chain.
A cat does what it’s nature tells it to do. Yes birds have gone extinct but humans have played a bigger role in that than cats. Taking away natural habitats, nesting grounds, and by machinery such as cars and planes. It’s not our furry friend who is to blame here…
Cats do not go on boats and invade islands, or do they...? ans even if they did, would be nature, a lot of predators surge and extinct preys that can't adapt, always happened and will always happen, but why blaming the house cats?
Usually, when cats have done the most damage, it's because humans introduced them to an ecosystem. One cat wiped out an entire species on an island, and human stupidity was the reason the cat was there in the first place. We're wiping out dozens of species, if not more, every month. Some species will be wiped out before we even knew they existed. The speed at which we're wiping them out dwarfs the damage caused by the asteroid that caused the Chicxulub crater. Animals are doing better around Chernobyl than when humans were there en masse. We are worse than radiation and asteroid impact!
I’ve got an old, chubby kitty that seems useless, but she still pulls in a few birds and rodents.

What does your cat do with the kill ? Is it hungry ? Or does it kill because it’s exercising, something to do?

Yes. Cats pick their humans. 😊

Or if you have a rodent problem .
Cats are such lovely, compassionate beings ❤
Cats are cute, cuddly, and deadly. And a true cat lover wouldn’t have it any other way. 🐈🐈⬛

A weasel is not a small animal compared to a cat. That's pretty brave.
Please give them deworming pills and flea medication 🙏
@@otgbaby4615 veterans check up once year flea and tick drops every two months she's a valuable member of the farm 👍
Your cat is brave because a weasel is strong
Well cat is amazing hunters plus they were smarter than rat who only how to destroy apartments or houses that’s why cat can handle how to get rid of the rodents
Watching cats is really pleasure.
I couldn't agree more!!! I am glad you enjoyed it!
It's what the internet was invented for, I think...
Excellent short documentary and the sound is perfect. Thank you.
Thank you so much for those kind words, Peter! And for your support, it means so much!! I am really glad you enjoyed it.
They are amazing, but we shoud watch out for them when they are outside
They go from beng household pets to wild animals once they step outside your house. At that point they become like tigers in a jungle. But the jungle that your pet uses as a blind is suburban shrubbery as lethal as the Sundarbans.

And it's because of them you barely see songbirds anymore .
@@gillesgibeault9135 indeed, same for frogs, small rodents, some Insects, basically anything slightly smaller than them!
@@gillesgibeault9135which is why we should bring them inside, especially babies. Mine only have outside time supervised & on a harness + leash.
Great documentary!
Thank you!!! That is a enormous compliment 😊😊
5 minutes is hardly a documentary ,maybe for a 5 year old .
Superb voice over. Superb footage. Quality video
Finally! An explanation for butt-wiggling. :-)
Really!
My yard has lizards, cockroaches and birds they love to hunt on. At times i worry that rhey canr surive if something happens to me but it seems cats can survive just fine
Now your mind is at peace . Thank God for that 5 minutes video .
A video that puts a smile on your face 😊😅they are so cufe
this is awesome, loved the video. probably explains why my 13 week old kitten wont stop trying to bite me all the time 😭😭 she's hunting me 24/7
😂😂

Those brown striped tabby cats disappear in the fall woods. Mine was perched in a silver maple tree and his coat against the bark made him disappear.
Oh my
Absolute purrfect camouflage.

naw not just top 10, they are the greatest hunters of every animal ever
They might be the best but sharks and birds of prey are pretty solid hunters too. Same with wolves, same with snakes. Different styles.
Mines hunts birds, frogs, lizards . a natural born hunter..
Frogs,mine not even touch
It’s not a good thing killing native wildlife
People, places & mates Oh my

Not exactly true. Which predator are cats (predators themselves) prey to in your opinion?
My cat got rid of all the moles in my backyard.
Oh come on you didn't know cats were little fuzzy serial killers. I had snake birds rats etc
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Meanwhile, my cat sits next to me and licks its butt hole 🤣🤣
The cat is cleaning itself idiot.
Dozens of small birds have gone extinct from house cats hunting them
A cat does what it’s nature tells it to do. Yes birds have gone extinct but humans have played a bigger role in that than cats. Taking away natural habitats, nesting grounds, and by machinery such as cars and planes. It’s not our furry friend who is to blame here…
@@greenserenityi agree
And thousands have because of your own existance. Should we all kill ourself or not go outside like you want with cats? Else your a major hypocrite.

Sorry I had the fact checked you.This right here is false news.Cats only need five hundred calories per day to survive
They actually have a success rate of 60%
Now is this the same for orange cats?
