Cats are ,without a doubt the most Graceful and Beautiful creature God ever Created ! they are all the same from the smallest house Cat to the Greatest Lion or tiger ! A Puuurfect piece of work !
Actually the LORD God is the Creator of all things: seen and unseen; from the atom to the expanse of the universe. Mankind hates this because he wants to be his own god. So he comes up with lies to comfort himself....evolution, mother nature, etc.
@@The-GreenHornet no one wants you to force your religious bullcrap onto other people susan. your the kind of person that hands out not toothbrushes, BUT FLIERS FOR YOUR STUPID CHURCH on halloween. hope you have a crappy day and i hope you look back at this and realize what a freaking jerkwad you are
I know this is a few years old and you might not see this comment, but in case you do, thank you very much. This is an invaluable resource for an aspiring animator. Thank you for developing the cinematography skills and training your lovely cat and sharing those things with us.
Cats are, beautiful, elegant and classy and it stands out even more in slow motion. Notice that if the cat is not running, it places its back paws exactly where the front paws were. I love cats.
i love those jumps where they perfectly judge the hind leg position at the peak of the jump like in the first clip. It really is a thing of beauty. Such graceful animals.
Thank you so much! I really want to sketch out some running, walking, jumping, etc to get a feel for how cats move. You are helping a lot more than you may think! I do have a cat of my own but these slow mo videos help better some times!
Great vid - thanx for sharing! Our cat (also a tabby) busted his leg a while ago and your video was really helpful to assess how a cat should be running at various speeds. From the transition between a run (not trot) to full-throttle I could see a clear difference in the timing of the paws hitting the ground and this confirmed that our cat is running as he should be. I was a bit concerned about him as he seemed to run a bit awkwardly but I can see now that this is normal for fast running (but different to flat out when both back paws are hitting the ground together) Thanx again!
Just imagine the body control needed for that. Cats are amazing. I came to see how they channel power from the back muscles. And yea. Thank you for making the perfect reference vid. Like many comments say. Artists needed this =)
Good looking tabby, I like the spotted sides. I had this great big male with concentric rings I miss the little bugger. Someone spirited him away from my farm where he had a magical existence and kept me company for over 9 yrs:-(
This video is just what I needed to help me illustrate a story about my bad cat Lincoln. No I understand how cats move in different situations. Thank you!
Skipped because of precision. You can see how precise they are to jump up. They never step on anything so it was probably a calculated skip to avoid stepping on something later.
You weren't going fast enough for the cat to sprint or go full speed, it only ever galloped fast, it never sprinted. The closest the cat got to a full sprint was at 5:58, where it started sprinting, but not for long enough to reached full speed. An interesting detail is that the cats back paw will step where the paw in front of it just stepped, this means that the back paw does not need to crush down any leaf litter or snow meaning that they will get traction faster, and will allow the cat to the be sure that the location where its paw will step is stable, and they will already know the conditions of this spot, allowing them to adjust their stride in advance, allowing them to be very stable and avoid missteps. This behavior is present in both walking and trotting, but I do not believe it is present in galloping or sprinting. I also have a theory on why the cat skipped a step at 6:24, because it would have landed on the transition between 2 different types of terrain, making it hard to predict the step, so the cat opted to adjust the gait to skip the step altogether to avoid tripping or potentially interrupting their gait in an unpredictable way. Also at 7:38, the cat was not cross eyed, that was the cats 3rd pair of eyelids (which move horizontally) opening. many animals have this 3rd eyelid, in fact humans have the vestige (what remains of something but no longer serves a purpose) of the 3rd eyelid in the medial corner (closer to your nose) of the eye (a lot of people think this is the tear duct, it is not).
It's amazing how high cats can jump from a standing position. Compared to their height, a human would probably have to jump to the 2nd floor to match a cat.
I’m gonna make a list of time stamps for this video

So light and gracеful ❤❤❤ Like weightless. And no unnecessary movements. Beauty
What an elegant creation of mother nature.
indeed
Actually humans domesticated them so it's humans creation

I marvel at cats for their agility and grace!
Thx this is helpful for animating
Same
Same
Yesss
U in the warriors fandom
Your kitty cat is so adorable, also this video is great for animators to see exactly how cats move. Thank you!
3:58 is so cute lol
Yes. I'm gonna use it to try to animate a cat
I know this is a few years old and you might not see this comment, but in case you do, thank you very much. This is an invaluable resource for an aspiring animator. Thank you for developing the cinematography skills and training your lovely cat and sharing those things with us.
That is a very tolerant cat.
Very cooperative cat!
3:06 I needed this so I can animate a cat jumping thanks
Haha me too I've been looking for fun things to try and animate good luck
Same bruh
same :D
Lilli Popp same, I needed a video to look at so I can animate a jumping cat
OML me too XD

I love cats.
that cat has an awesome home! cats love rural areas like that, and they are nice and safe with no roads
i love those jumps where they perfectly judge the hind leg position at the peak of the jump like in the first clip. It really is a thing of beauty. Such graceful animals.
Friday night, wife and husbond discussing if horses and cats run in the same way. Found perfect video = profit!!
I was wondering the same, super glad I now have the answer !
Само совершенство природы, чудо❤
I ❤️ cats. They make the world a better place as most animals anyways :) 🌏
as an animator thank you so much these are just what i needed!
this a great reference for animation! thank youuuu
What a BEAUTIFUL spotted kitty! I love watching animals run, and "pounced" on this video to see the slow-mo. Thank you for posting it! 💖💖💖💖💖💖
This was way more entertaining and educational than I expected!
this is so good for people to learn animation
the fact that the cat has white paws makes it even easier
I feel like this is a look into a secret they don’t want us to know about 😹
Thank you so much! I really want to sketch out some running, walking, jumping, etc to get a feel for how cats move. You are helping a lot more than you may think!
I do have a cat of my own but these slow mo videos help better some times!
A home is just not a home without a cat or cats 🐈 😻 🐈⬛ 🐱 🐈
*Casually adds to the animation references*
Having just helped my son with trig for an hour, I really appreciated the "I mean radians" :)
Omggg... Didn't expect it to be this complicated! Amazing!!!

That is one clever cat, or well motivated.
Most cats will look at you with that distainfull look when asked to co-operate.
Cat is the most beautiful animal
No its Koala
🐨
Just imagine the body control needed for that. Cats are amazing.
I came to see how they channel power from the back muscles. And yea. Thank you for making the perfect reference vid. Like many comments say. Artists needed this =)
that cat definitely has love for you. super special and lucky. 🙂
you have got a realy nice friend there !
2:53
I feel like this is what a cat on the moon would look like
The trots are the best. Always feels so chill seeing animals trotting.
Somehow I suspect that seeing a chihuahua in slow motion like this would be equally satisfying, but for the exact opposite observational reasons.
Your kitty is so cute!! I love their little trots and gallops
Good looking tabby, I like the spotted sides. I had this great big male with concentric rings I miss the little bugger. Someone spirited him away from my farm where he had a magical existence and kept me company for over 9 yrs:-(
A dog can never be so graceful.
The first jump was like somebody turned gravity off.
That’s very useful for researching cat’s movement.
Elegant and smooth
speaking as someone looking for animation reference, you are a god for aking this
The most perfect range of motion of any land animal ..... the ninja's of the animal world , the perfect predator ......... motion artistry
Very interesting. What scares me is to think about duplicating cat motion with a four legged robot. Whew!
Nice shots, perfect. Just what I was looking for and no more. Awesome
this is very helpful! im teaching myself animation and appreciate references like this
This video is just what I needed to help me illustrate a story about my bad cat Lincoln. No I understand how cats move in different situations. Thank you!
This is great for learning to animate and i’ll definitely go back to this video often
you're an absolute godsend, this is the exact kind of reference i needed for my animation
This is exactly what I needed. Thank you!
1:30
Marking it for my map part
Cat gallops for a whole minute.
Cat: "That is it. I quit. I am going to lay down and nap. I'm spent."
as an artist/wannabe animator this is really helpful reference footage.
perfect for cat animation reference 👌🏼
This is perfect!
More than what I was looking for
Don't let Gareth Morgan see this video... how many birds were killed in the making of this clip? (LOL)
He is a POS.
such a cute and adorable cat!!!
Poor little thing, so obedient😓 😺
love the kitty :-) nice footage
Thanks for giving me some ref for animation! I’ve been trying to get back into it haha
Skipped because of precision. You can see how precise they are to jump up. They never step on anything so it was probably a calculated skip to avoid stepping on something later.
Such a cool kitty! Also a fascinating study of feline body dynamics. Cheers!
Animators are screaming thank you
This video is great for people who are looking to animate movement like running or jumping!
You have a beautiful furry friend! Thanks for the video!
Your cat does all these athletics, my cat almost trips down the stairs
dude !!
ty so much for this , this really help me animating
Now I want a cat lol! So Kool with the slowmo!
See if you can get a slowmo cat, and save on the camera costs. :o)
John Colvin lol
This is extremely helpful animation reference, thank you.
thank you so much for this video it helps a ton with animation
Thank you for making this amazing video!!
🥰🥰
I’m so glad that I found this! I can use these videos as a great reference for animation! Thanks for making this :D
here we are, watching cat videos on the internet ... on not the first channel I'd think of but you definitely did a great job!
1:00 needed for animation ^_^ beautiful cat and good references thank u
Ima just yionk this too, thank you for finding the right time stamp
Thank you for this! This video helps me so much with my animation project! Cats are such beautiful creatures! :)
What you saw in the end weren't cross eyes, but the nictitating membrane (damn that's so much more complicated than the german "Nickhaut").
I know this is from 2 years ago, but, is that Leafpool? (Warrior Cats fans will understand) XD
If you ask oliwii very very very nice he may loan you his new handheld gimbal. that thing is CRAZY.......Great job. Your No#1 fan
super star cat
I miss my cat :(
Its always fun Time I'm sorry for your loss :( ♡
I love this so much!
Man, the stabilization of that thing is amazing! btw, I want a rig like that but I don't find the kitty in banggood, can you post the link?
I’m using this as reference for animating a fox, there aren’t many fox animations, so I think using a cat to see the movements is good, thanks!
Foxes actually move in a more canine like manner, so I suggest using dogs!
@@freechurro702 oh, thanks! Currently I’m not working on foxes, but I will try using dogs when I start again
@1 2 currently I’m not uploading my animations, I don’t think I really will as it’s mainly just practice right now
This helped me so much with animating cat. Thank you!
The cat looks cute but slowed down I see a tiger
I can’t believe I watched this for the whole 8 minutes
Thank you very much for this video.
i see she's running the most recent version of CatWare.
This is so helpful for animators
THANK YOU SO FUCKING MUCH!!
First time animating this helps so much
Ugh this was PERFECT thank you!!!!
Aww! Looks just like my Teddie boy!

She keeps you in shape :-)
Thank god I found a reference like this! I really needed one as I’m learning to animate :)
It's amazing how high cats can jump from a standing position. Compared to their height, a human would probably have to jump to the 2nd floor to match a cat.
Uncle Phil's been trying to earn money. He misses that furr ball.
I needed this to animate 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
awesome video! thanks for the effort you put in it. and your cat is really adorable :3
