You Don't Own Me - Parody Song sung by CATS! 😸
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 20 июл 2022
- Lesley Gore's You Don't Own Me has been taken over by cats in this parody song, and the title alone sums up their fabulous, feline attitudes!
I love cats' independent ways - when they choose to love their people, it really means something! So cuddle your kitty, if they'll allow you to, and enjoy this feline choir singing You Don't Own Me.
Many thanks to all who sent in their cats' photos. I'm sure there will be more, so follow my channel or facebook page to stay in the loop for my next casting calls!

"I think my cats are communists. They expect free food and keep talking about Mao." -unknown author
Haha!!!
@ Yes, I found it on the internet, but I don't know the author of the quote.
Yep😅
They’re not Communists. They’re Catmewnists. 🐈🐈⬛
I am my cats slave
I've had 5 cats, and it's true, I was their butler. One of the best jobs ever, butlering to a cat.
The snuggles and how he wraps his cute little paws around my arm, makes my butlerring, so worth it. 🥰😻
Nice
Oh no, that's all my cat needs to find. A singing feline support group. 😺
It was nicely done.
😆
"Singing feline support group" LOL!!
😂😂😂James that is so funny
Yes a very cute video beautiful cat's
😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣so true
Dogs have owners - Cats have servants 😂
A nice weekend to you all 🎉
Exactly!
Human command to the dog
but Cat command to the human for everything
OMG. Cat Mom to many. How did I never see it that way. Oh whipped into submission. 😂
Whatever this is going to be, they own us and they know it. 😂
and we love being owned! 😺
I don't agree with that there are more of us than there are of them as long as we stand up and say enough is enough and do it peacefully because love is something they cannot control and they know that. What do you think they try so hard to divide us and get us to hate each other that they can control.
@@pambowling1118 That they accept our love makes us so grateful, even if it’s only for a few minutes and then they shove us and walk away, gives them a great advantage.
Futurama 6th season That Darn Katz.
Well, SURE! They are sitting in the catbird seat.
Exactly!!!!! That song describes perfectly cats behavior. They are sure they own us, and consider that we are at home to be their servants or even, their slaves. Very independent and absolutely fickle, but we all adore them, they are so cute and lovely...I love my two babies !!!!! BEAUTIFUL AND WITTY SONG .... CONGRATULATIONS !!!!!! LOVE SHIRLEY
Thank you, Silvia. Yes, they are precious as they are!
They do own us ! At least mine do. I have one cat who drags a dog lead in the bedroom and will keep crying till I play with her. Mind you it's 2:30 am. Bad thing I do it !😂😂😂😂
"&" UN+brillli-unt
female speically
I'm owned by 5 cats, role reversal, I have no idea how it happened... 🙀😻
Haha, they always make that happen and we don't even realize it! All along we're thinking we "own" them, haha wrong!!!
I understand totally ... owned by 4 demanding cats!!
Cats are like potato chips, you can't have just one!
My two Siamese have taught me to shut up and be a good servant to them. 😎😼😼
Love comes in strange ways sometimes ❤️
Having had cats all my adult life, I recognise the simple truth of this song! I've learnt the error of assuming that I'm in charge of*any* cat, big or small. Quite simply, it's the reason why I love them so. When a cat accepts & loves you, it's all the more rewarding & gratifying knowing that that love & trust is often hard won.
Thank you for yet another "nail on the head"!
🐾🐈🐾🤗
Thank you, warbabybites!
@
Hilarious because so very true!!
ABSOLUTELY Brilliant!!!!-😻🙀😺😽🙋🏻♂️
Thanks so much!
Ok Shirley, this is fabulous, only someone who has a cat could have composed such hilariously accurate lyrics! Or should I say, someone who is "owned" by a cat lol! The "cat chorus" and soloists are fantastic, once again you've done a superb job creating this marvelous video. I'm sure every one with a feline friend in their life, will relate. Every word the kitties sang, is true! As a quote I once read states: "There are many intelligent species in the universe. They are all owned by cats." 😄😼💖
Thank you, Margarita. I wouldn't change the way cats are for anything!
@ Neither would I, I love them dearly and always will!
Shirley does an amazing job! :)
@@SweetiesCatWorld Yes she truly does, I'm a huge fan of hers, and of Sweetie, of course, as you know!! 😍🐈💖🎶
This is hilarious! 🐈⬛😊
Never a truer song has been sung, little so and so's' we love them and they tolerate us except when they're hungry - I love our two so much but they do test my patience - as usual Shirley brilliant work !
Thanks so much, Colin. Got to love em for it, eh?
@ 3am with a purring lump on your head having first walked up the length of you - Hmm lets see - Eh not so much!
Check out Jackson galaxy you'll find cats care about you more than you think
Big wide smile from me, I had and still have many cats in my life, they are all special and all individuals, love them all 😻
Life just isn't complete without them, is it?
@ so true, put in a mix of four dogs too, antics, fun and love
Shirley, you never disappoint ! LOL, I love this. . .You nailed a cat's attitude. 🤣😂
Thanks so much!
Yes 😂🐈⬛ great video
It’s “cattitude”. 🐈🐈⬛
Cattitude!
Purffect song for All cats....Brilliant and funny.......😻
Thank you!
Love this!!! Winnie (my cat) is at my side deciding whether she wants attention or not as we speak 😂 This is hilarious and spot on.
Thank you, Angie and Winnie!
This made me so happy. I'm glad to see old Tish got past the auditions.
Definitely a cat song. Wonderful work 💙
Tish the choral kitty!
That was awesome! You never fail to delight me with your lyrics and voices. Thank you for a bright spot in my day really needed this!✌🇨🇦❤❤🐈🐈⬛🐱
I'm so glad, Sue - thank you!
Yes a awesome video, Shirley Serbin is talented
Pawsome, surely?
Priceless Shirley. The cats sound lovely & I can tell they’re really singing from their hearts! 🤣🤣
I’m a little partial to the ginger boy(s) but all these cats are ADORABLE! Well done!! xo
Thank you, Nancy!
So cute 🥰😻 love cats
They are all singing the song of their people. =^___^=
(Someone said that online recently about their cats that had been yowling in the car while being moved. It seems they were emotionally moved also. =^__~=)
Their people sing "Meow, meow, meow". =^___^=
Gosh, you matched those voices perfectly to the different cats. It sounded exactly the way I'd expect them sound if they could talk! ♥👍
Thanks, Kathy!
We don't have the same diversity of cats the same way we have with dogs for a reason; we've bred different breeds of dogs to serve us in different ways, but cats be like, "Serve you? Screw that!" Long hair, short hair, different colors is all we're gonna get there coz cats gonna be cats on their terms not ours! And many of us, me included love them _so MUCH!!_ we'd do anything for them because they're also evil little manipulators!!
"Evil little manipulators" lol!! I don't know if I'd call them evil, but manipulators, absolutely!!
Shirley, thanks for making my day AWESOME!
Thank you, Ronnie!
Can’t wait.Either. Hugs to Shirley for keeping our spirits up! I know your videos are seen by people all over the world, so you are truly a World Wide WebStar 🎉🥰😻
That's very kind of you to say, Victoria. Thank you.
@ i mean what I say. I can’t fathom how you do your school job - your the principal at a primary school - and write these wonderful songs , make and produce the of amazing, quirky and at times hilarious, videos.
I hope that you are thinking about writing a memoir. I have started mine, but have not gotten very far. So often I have been told what an interesting and amazing life I have. Of course, if I follow in my mum’s foot steps, I still have some years before I die. 😹😹. I wish that I was back in Jakarta, as a trip to New Zealand would not be so difficult. When I lived there, we had R & R at Christmas. Mummy and I wanted to go to the the Great Barrier Reef, and I wanted to go on to New Zealand, but my father and older sister wanted Hong Kong. The two of them were itching to go to Macau and the big casino there.
Well enough withering away from me. I can prattle on at times.
Good On ya!! Shirley! Keep those cat videos coming. If you do another one, I will definitely send some snaps of my trio. 😻😹😽😺 bless
Yes Shirley Serbin is talented and great singer and videos 🐈⬛🥰
Another hit on your hands! Right after that on my phone feed came the song Memory, from Cats. My feline just came to check everything out. Thanks! We are blessed with your talent to cheer people (and critters) up when we need it. Hope you have someone in your life like you for when you need a pickmeup.
Thanks so much. Patricia. My husband is the best pick-me-up ever. I'm very lucky with him. He makes me laugh every day.
@ it's the other way around cats own us humans 😂😂😂😂
We are co-parenting the neighbors cat~ this is totally his theme song! I wonder how many other co-parents he has while he "trick or treats" 🤔
Clever kitty!!
@ he's got us all trained and on a tight schedule. And your song is so true~ you don't own a cat. They allow you to coexist with them, as long as you remain useful and are a good
"helper monkey"🐈🐒
Thank you, you've done it again. Great singing, and purrfect entertainment. ❤🐈⬛🐈🐱🐾🐾
Glad you enjoyed it Thank you!
You really did nail it, Shirley....you cat-tured their Cattitudes!!! 😆😻😻😽☺️
Thank you!
You Don't Own Me by Lesley Gore is one of my favorite songs. Looking forward to this parody.
Update: song released, awesome as expected.
Thanks so much - I'm glad you enjoyed this version.
Sometimes I watch this twice a day and sing along with the cats. That is if I am not laughing too hard.
I love this!
I love the kitties!❤And if they could talk, that's pretty much what they would say.
This is adorable! Totally defines what cats are like! Love you Shirley!
Thanks so much!
Thanks Shirley, another musical masterpiece.
Thanks so much!
So true, I can't decide which is my favorite. They all are!!
This is adorable! Thank you for sharing it with us 😊
You are so welcome! Glad you enjoyed it.
I love cats and this video, brilliantly shows their "I own YOU side"! You're the best Shirley! You always make me smile 😊! ♥️!
Thank you so much, JC!
It's the independence of cats that has made me love many over the years.So brilliantly done.
Thank you! I feel the same way about them.
Dogs have owners, cats have staff.
Oh I loved it! So many beautiful cats! Loved the solos with the back up singers 🏆😻😻
We missed Sweetie this time!
Did the second one down on the right, say anything. He reminded me a Father Dougal on Father Ted. A bit vacant!🤣🤣🤣
Yay,luv this song,can't wait 😀
Thank you for putting Lexie in the chorus!!! This gives me joy!
No problem!! Lexie was purrfect for the choir!
Another gem. As the human servant to 5 kitties, I understand all too well!
Thanks so much!
Hilarious! We need more fun and clever vids like this. As someone who creates captioned photos and conversations with my cat Flame for friends and family, I really appreciate the time and effort that you put in. Thank you very much!
Thank you, hayzelee!
my cats (all 5!) were loving this!
Purrs to them all!! The most I had at one time was 9.
I'm sure they were! 😊😄😼
@ You had 9 cats?! Then for sure you are eminently qualified to write this song lol!!!
@@margaritakleinman5701 it was never intended. We had one, then a pregnant wild cat with an older kitten started hanging out in our garden. She had her babies and brought them to us. AND then the two possible dads started hanging out too. Quite the family!! We had them all desexed and tried rehoming the kittens but nobody would take them. So we were adopted by them instead. 😸
@ Wow, what an amazing story! You were adopted by them, all right! They chose you and there was nothing you could do about it! Cats are smart, they know just who to pick. One of my dearest kitties, Princess, just mysteriously appeared on my doorstep one night. I'm so glad she did!
I love this song...by Lesley Gore! So true for cats too...another great parody by Shirley
Thank you, Barbara!
Absolutely PRICELESS!!! Thanks so much!!! CATS were PUURFECT!!!!!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Brilliant! As always. Keeping us smiling. xx
Thank you!
Lol lol!! 🤣😂🤣 Exactly what I picture cat's saying!! My daughter has 6 and that is so them!! I love it! Thank you for the laugh again!! 💜
You are so welcome!
I had 4 cats all were 27 years old when they passed away last year. They were my life. I loved them and they loved me. They would hug me when I cried and snuggle when I was sad. They are the most loving animal. I miss them so much.
They really are precious, aren't they?
I gave you a 'like' because I understand.
Wow, Shirley! You're are quite the maestra....you NEVER disappoint to delight us, amuse us, make us laugh!! This is, once again, a masterpiece....or rather, a Meow-sterpiece. I don't know how you do it!
It's, Meow-velous! Fur-bulous! Purrrrr-fect in every way.....Everyone needs to Paws fur this!!
Shirley, thank you so much for brightening up my day!
Who's smiling Meow? 😻🐈⬛️😸🐱😽😺🐈🐈⬛️😻🐈😽😺😾 ☺️
I love this - thank you!
How adorable! I love my cats better than some people.
So do I.
"best butler I have found".........
Haaaaa, haaaa, haa!!! Yes, that just about sums up their attitude nicely. 😼😸😺😻
😆 I thought so!
OMG! I always loved Leslie Gore's songs! This is great! So glad I found your channel. You are just so clever! Thanks!
Thank you so much!
I ♥️ all of talented love stars! 👍😎
Same!
Another great song, written, quite obviously, for you by one or more felines that 'tolerate' you! So glad they all agreed to be in the video….I can only assume that this was also their idea….or you are an amazing cat wrangler! 😅👏👏👏👏
😆 Don't ask to see the scratches!!
Perfect. Thank you Shirley
Thanks for listening, Gail!
This song… so true!! Dogs have masters, but cats have staff.
They sure do!
Very cute! Thank you Shirley.
Thank you! 😊
The cute white one in the middle of your collage with her occasional meow & soul searching stare got me 😹
Excellent parody as always, Shirley. Truly a feline anthem.
Thank you! 😄
It's International Women's Day this week! We have a lot to learn from the cats (and Leslie Gore) in our lives.
you could learn about sandwich making, that would solve quite a lot of the world problems, including, but not limited to, yours. 😼
Love this! 😄 My old boy is almost 19 and blind and I take him into the garden on a lead for some freedom. He very much screams for me when I'm not in the room lol but when he was sighted and young he had his strut and the attitude...guess old age mellowed him, bless him 😄
Sweetheart!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤I realy love them singing well done kittys..
Thank you!
This is brilliant. I was in tears of laughter!
So glad you liked it - yay!
I'm sorry I don't own a 🐈😺. But this was Amazing.!!! The cat choir is singing in three part harmony, and the soloists all have different voices as well. A few of the solo cats looked rather stern... guess they got up on the wrong side of the cat bed.
I'm always amazed at the work you put into all your videos!!! Thank you for all your work in encouraging us with these delightful feline friends 😺. Meow meow meow for now 😁 Miss Monique 🐈🌸🐇🎶🎶🐰💜💕
Thank you, Monique. I really appreciate your comment! (The cat choir is in 4 part harmony though. 😉)
@ 4 part harmony even more amazing. You must arrange your own music according to your vocal range. Excellent work as usual 🐱😄!! Perhaps when you retire from being a Principal , your next career will be as composer/arranger of choral 🎶🎵 music. God has given you a lot of talent. Thank you for sharing. God Bless you always 🙏🌷💖🙂
@@moniquelemaire5333 You must let a cat adopt you, there is nothing like it. Or two or
three or............ They all have their own personalities. Just relax and do their bidding.🙀
@@lucysphotosfromar Yes, thank you for your reply. I might have some kind of pet, but at this time do not afford any extra expense. Also, my older brother is very allergic to cats. So, I am sort of like the one who has no children and enjoys other people's children, this is what I do with pets. I enjoy other people's pets.
They are so cute though, aren't they!!
Miss Monique 😁🐾🐱🐈👍🌷🎉
Чудо чудное, диво дивное. Теперь я, похоже, буду слушать только пение кошек. Какая фотогеничность. Голос! Выразительность!
Thank you!
Brilliant! Shirley, the cats words are the reason I love dogs more❤️😂😂😂😂😂thnx again mate👍👍🥰
Thanks, Jennifer. Believe me, they have a way of sneaking into the heart and making you love them all the more for their fun ways! I'm crazy about dogs too, but cats are just as precious to me.
Do Shirley's cats know the lines from the movie Airplane? "Surely, you can't be serious! I am serious, and don't call me Shirley!"
I Shirley do! 😆
😹😹Love this!! I’d give it 100 thumbs up if I could! Can always count on you for a good laugh, thanks Shirley 😻
Thanks so much, Susan!
Magic! Thank you so much, Shirley!
You are so welcome!
Puuuuuurrrrfect...
Even the kittens watched ... Well half way thru any way.
THANKS SHIRLEY...
Thank you, Marian and kittens!
Lovely! I will have to play this for Kiki when she gets up from her nap (oh wait, that'll be my bedtime 😁) Another great one!
Thank you, cjpew! Strokes for Kiki!
I've always been a dog person, but like friends' cats. This was cute and funny, thank you. I like how you voiced them 👏😊
Thank you, Hannah!
You're doing us all a great public service: making us laugh. Parody is brilliant! Yay, Shirley!!😁😂😃😄😅😆☺️
Thank you, Sharon!
5th longhaired Tabby was like my Smudge, except mine had white on his chest. Passed away last week. Miss my Boy. RIP SMUDGE. Thank you Shirley for this Cat Video. Smiled, but sad at the same time. Love to you in beautiful New Zealand. Love from England 🇬🇧 ❤
Oh, I'm so sorry, Jayne. That's always so hard. Cherish those Smudgy memories - I'm sure he was so well loved.
@ Thanks Shirley, you said you had a Smudge but disappeared. God love all Animals. Keep up your parodies. Your the best. ❤
@@jaynekittycat9252 💔So sorry for your loss 💔 Keep Smudges happy memories in your heart💕.
They await us on the other side of the rainbow 🌈 >hug>❤
@@uhoh1313 Ahh, that is very sweet of you. Thank you for those kind words. ❤
@@jaynekittycat9252 from my ❤ to you, girl.
That was great ☺️🤗😻
Glad you liked it!!
Super cute 💞 I love these. I don't know how this is even achieved but I thoroughly enjoy your singing animal videos.
Thank you, Rachel! 😊
@ you are very welcome. ☺
Not only are your parodies so enjoyable, but right on point. You have so "purrfectly" described my "Sweety" (boy was I off in naming her!!).
Thanks so much, Shifra.
Absolutely true! The kitties are all so cute, and a couple of them look like two famous RUclips cats!
They may well be - no idea!
This is realy great and one of the best parodys you ever makes ! Greatings and love from germany ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
Thank you so much, Eva!
Sending to all of my cat-owned friends -- love it!
Thank you, sonyahannah!
The theme song of every cat, ever!
😆
As a crazy cat person you are my spirit animal with your perfectly true cat parodies. This is a very, very, very close second to Catsody, though I can see some sleepless angst driven moments trying to decide between them.😺
Though warn the owned of 1, 11 and 17 that they should be on their guard as I am planning major catnapping operations as I have a major weakness for torties. 😻
Thanks, Dermacrosis. Have you seen pics of my girl on my community page? She's a tortie. I have a soft spot for them too.
My cats' new favorite song! 🐱
😸
LOVE IT!!! 😻
Thank you!
All 4 of my cats are dancing to this right now. LOL.
Leslie Gore would approve this rendition of her hit song !!
Hopefully
AAAAAAAAAAAAH
CHIC CHIC CHIC , UNE FÉLIVIDEO !
CE SONT LES MEILLEURES , à mon goût ...
notamment les CHŒURS miaulés, absolument irrésistibles , craquant , tellement drôles !!
Merci merci merci !
Merci bien!
These cats are well-trained vocalists. Notice how their mouths shape their words just right! 😻
Lots of training!!
@ 😹😸
Thank you for such a wonderful video. Shirley, you are a treasure!
Thank you so much, Lynda. I'm glad you enjoyed it!
And then there are the rare healer cats who, when you come into the room, make a beeline for whatever needs healing, and start sniffing around, or jump up onto your chest right as you sit down and purr away. This has happened to me a couple times, and interestingly enough, those healer cats were males. Such love bugs! 🥰
Bonjour,
J'ai 40 ans et j'éclate de rire en entendant vos chansons !! J'aime ce délire qui nous donne le sourire !! Merci à vous.
Merci
That is so cute with different cats singing you don't own me from dirty dancing movies.
We are the humble slaves to four beautiful rescues and we would have it any other way , Thank you for making me smile today 😘💕
So glad you liked it - thank you!
Awesome as always! Good job!
Thank you so much, Marylyn! 😀
So much comes together in your wonderfully creative music parodies. Besides the hugely enviable talent,of course in the best sense! - your dedication to cats,so beloved ! and your delightful sense of humour. You do enlighten this otherwise crazy world..thank you!!!
Thank you so much, Claudia!
Wonderful. I like that there were four main singers instead of just one. You do the mouths so great; it doesn't look like human lips put on cats' faces. So many cute faces!
Thank you! 😊
Another great and true video!! We certainly don’t own our puddies (cats) they give us the privilege of taking care of them, they let us clean their boxes, they allow us to
feed them what they desire and on occasion they even let us pet them and think it was our idea.
So true!
"Be grateful that I stick around"...haha!
Purrfect Parody for cat lovers. Great job, Shirley!
Thank you! 😄
I'm not a cat fancier but I loved this so much. Adorable viewers cats and you sang it so well. You
even matched up the cats beautifully. Thanks Shirley for all the. 🥰🥰
Thank you, Shirl!
@ 🥰
Love this! I love my kitty but I know whose boss in my house! Twinkle Toes is!!! 😂😂😂
I had two cats growing up, a Maincoon and a Siamese. These two furballs, were awesome to have as my family. If I had the time and room, I would get two more. But my apartment is a bit small, it would not be fair to the cats. Growing up, I lived in a two story and basement colonial home in Dearborn, and my two cats had so much room to explore. What great memories.
my daily JOY AND PEACE...... love this
Thank you!
