Music for this video is "Jingle Humbug", a very dour and poor interpretation of Jingle Bells and some other stuff, by Will Braden
All new Henri videos will be uploaded here, so be sure to subscribe to this channel. Thank you for watching!
Well said.
I am rewatching all of M. Braden and Henri's oeuvre after reading the eulogy just posted upon his passing. RIP Henry.
RIP Henri....even though you retired a while back, I will still miss you.
"I'm alive, and I'm not a dog."
"I can see it in your eyes. You want nothing more than to be petted and loved."
I don't know why but that made me cry.
Henri is so phenomenal, he leaves me speechless. It takes real talent to be tragic and comical at the same time. The person who made this is an artist and a poète maudit.* *chapeau* *
Hermetic Kitten You might like my surreal cat art, and other works, they combine tragedy, pathos, with a cartoonish hyper reality and humour, BTW, your comments are exquisite and you really get the core of Henri.

This is SO cute, Henri does Scrooge's visit by the 3 spirits, but does NOT turn benevolent LOL
"There's more of whitefish and tuna in gravy than of grave about you" that Christmas Carol reference. Henri is a clever kitty :)
Thank you for clarifying this! I've never read the book and never heard this line clearly enough in any of the films to make out the entire sentence that Scrooge said to Marley. i'd wondered about it when Henri said it and now it all makes more sense.
Stay strong Henri, you have dignity where other cats have lasers to chase. Keep your wisdom to yourself, it goes unappreciated among your kind and unrecognized by humans. Life is cruel but understanding this gives you strength. Do not allow the lie that infiltrates the life of the white cat to touch your soul. You are Henri.
lol...
This cat has taught me more about life in 4 minutes than TV has in past 24 years.
I regret nothing.
"A life of a cat philosopher accounts to nothing without friends." ~ Oh Henri, we love you too.
Sitting here alone on Christmas Eve, I found this video very comforting. Thank you.
Hahahaha! Best line ever.." I'm alive, and I'm not a dog.." I thought I'd drop my phone!
Difference between the mentality of a dog and that of a cat: when the master/mistress is leaving the house a dog will panic and immediately think "Nooooo... they are leaving me forever! Forever! They're not going to come back! I will never see them again!" The cat, however, calmly thinks: "Great, Duuuude! Got the place to myself! Take you time. Don't let the door hit you on the hiney as you go."
Kirk Feather I'm definitely a cat!
@@JasmineSurrealVideos me too
I love the music, it totally sets the mood.
Just when I thought I couldn't love Henri any more than I already do--you show pictures of him as a kitten! He's so adorable.
I'm from Cleveland, Ohio ,where " Christmas Story" was filmed- I LOVE that Henri has a leg lamp "major award" and I am glad that the film was enjoyed there! These videos are fantastic- the mournful French voice overs and Henri's view of life- great viewing, thank you for posting them.
I first met Henri while playing the video game "The Purring Quest". I play the game in French, but I initially did not know that the cat he was based on spoke with that accent, I was imagining him with a haughty voice. I love these videos, they make me laugh! Keep up the great work, very creative stuff.
The videos just keep getting better! Don't stop making them, please. Thanks, Anna
I watch all of them, and found them Genial, you really Know cat's psychology and have so well translated their subtle messages, I love the accent. What a sense of humor! Thank you.
I now see that my banal existence is shared by my feline soul-tie counterpart Henri.
At last someone understands! My therapist well be so happy!
Henri, you are my best Christmas present! A new Holiday Henri video and I had no idea one was on its way! Absolutely awesome! Thank you for sharing your life with us. Your irony is so effective! Though you proclaim you can only be alone in dreams, you realize you truly need friends. Merry Christmas Henri! Anna
PS: Your baby pictures made me cry!
I adore these videos. They are well written, full of lovely details, and have a leading man who deserves an Oscar!
Yes, I loved the baby pictures! (among other things).
This is divine, the viewer coming in Henri's hallowed personal dream space, alongside the other cats he feels slightly disdainful of, and his regrets at being this way, maybe as its Xmas in the video. Its so outstandingly original, and as a surreal cat artist myself, and a long haired cat lover, Henri is not only beautiful and soulful looking, like a cat Kate Bush (Cat Bush!), but he's a master of profundity and wit. If only humans were an ounce of this cat.
Oh man, I love Henri's French! Growing up in Canada with a pretty good amount of French from high school (meaning a lot of French spoken very slowly with North American accents) I think I can understand him better than most French Canadians!
Revisiting some old favourites on this last dayof 2023. We loved Henri.
Certainly we can't hope for as many likes as your Halloween costume contest videos. Those are masterpieces!
Where have I been th hat I've not seen your channel before. I woke today with a dreadful headache, feeling sorry for myself and then I find your videos. I love it when I laugh and I'm all along, the best tell if something is really good. Boy have I been laughing, thank you for changing my day for the better.
This was so clever on so many levels. The kittie ghosts of Christmas past present and future and Henri as the unrepentant Scrooge. "Je regrette rien." And as for the "Leg Lamp" from a Cristmas Story ha ha ha. Henri tu est superb! Joyeux Noel et Bonne Annee (et au ton famille aussi).
Move mover grumpy cat!
This kitty is Rousseau and Sartre reincarnated..
The formerly Great Henri before he sold out to Friskies. The music with this piece was perfect.
re-inbarferated. no ?
LOVE THIS!! The sweet colorful background effects just tear at my heart .. almost as much as Henri does. I LOVE HIM SO MUCH!!
I like how all the other cats have this blank look on their faces like "what?"
"They lend no credence to my major awards." I almost coughed up a lung.
I've just now found these videos. This is my Henry...he's my favorite.
I have a new appreciation for my sour cat. Henri, you have taught me so much!
that takes cat videos to a whole other level. We've seen cute cats, we've seen talking cats, now we have philosopher cats. awesome video!
The Dickens reference
>.
I've looked and listened to the whole series, well at least those posted here, and although your accent is terrible and some translations are incorrect (pumpkin is a citrouille in french, for example), I've enjoyed watching the whole thing. Thanks for creating it, Will.
You're my favorite cat, I simply fell in love with you the first time I saw your videos, existencialism is the way of life for most of the cats I know and you reflect it perfectly, my congratulations to you and your human for this great proyect of self portraits. Nice holidays
And to you as well. Here's to doing many things in the coming year that we would have scoffed at a year ago. What more could you hope to do with a short and meaningless life than to challenge your preconceived notions?
Henri gives a new meaning to Emo....he re affirms that "the world is a vampire"....now I need to go put on more eyeliner
A difficult call, but possibly better than Mr. Magoo's version of Christmas Carol. LOL
Repose En Paix, Henri. 💕💕 Rest in Peace, Henri. You lived a long life and from what i've read in Wikipedia, you had a happy one (not at all like your alter-ego here on youtube). We will always have your videos to put smiles on our faces. And I have the book. 😊
As always... brilliant!
"I regret nothing" XD I AM DEAD
That actually kind of made me sad...
I love the homage to the Christmas Carol
"Je suis vivent, et je ne suis pas un chien."
Best video you've made so far!
best one yet!!!! i love how the cat dreams in color....
The lamp! I cannot believe I saw that famous lamp. Love the video.
Poor Henri, so dissatisfied with life lol. I can relate to Henri, he is my spirit animal. There is peace in solitude lol
I hope someday Henri finds true happiness. What a beautiful cat!
Very clever...Henri's "A Christmas Carol"!!
"Perhaps I am too harsh with you. I suppose -- Oh, come on..." says Henri to the "Idiot/Imbecile Blanc" & I almost fell out of my chair!
I love the three of them on the sofa waiting for the "new & improved" Henri to SHARE his treats...with yogurt or white cottage cheese on his head! GOOD GRIEF!
My hubby walked in & said, "Oh, is that Henri? I love those videos!" The hubby is much like Henri...so this is HIGH PRAISE, indeed.
Make some more!
I love the videos man keep em up watching them can literally make my day a little more complete, really enjoyed the humor in this one in paticular
Oh Henri, you don't fool me! I heard you're having the BIGGEST CAT CHRISTMAS BASH EVER!! (no caretakers allowed) Release that inner KITTEN,break out the CATNIP, and be the CRAZY CAT we all know you are!! MELEKILIKIMAKA & HAPPY NEW YEAR!! PILIKEA, MIKI MOTOSAN & JULS!
BEAUTIFUL PAGE .. HAVE A GOOD NIGHT .. A KISS GIANT
i dont kno whay but the dream scene is pretty sad for me
That's why it's so profound. Everything that's truly funny is a profound truth. Every profound truth is sad. That's why we need Will Braden/Henri (like Samuel Clemens/Mark Twain) to make it a bit more bearable. Fin.
1:02 So magical, so profound!
These are so wonderfully written & filmed, just watched all you have posted here.. would love to see more!~~~:)
the music just kills me
Fantastic video, as always. Thank you for sharing, and happy holidays!
So glad I found Henri! Great video, as always.
Woe is me-
I only recently found Henri!
Why have I never seen him? And now he’s gone. 😿 RIP, Henri.
I will never get tired of this videos.
WOAH WOAH WOAH YOU HAVE THE LEG LAMP FROM A CHRISTMAS STORY?!? IVE ONLY BEEN LOOKING FOR A NORMAL SIZED LEG LAMP FOREVER!!
I believe cats do need other cats in the family to keep them company!
.....and upon whom to heap scorn! Hahaha!
it's been 8 years. Where was I all that time?
Barbara, I did not understand your comment; however, after clicking on your photograph, it made sense. You do so much work with abandoned cats including socializing feral cats. I bet Henri would be proud of you. He was originally a shelter cat.
I loved how you narration of this video. I do not speak French, but I worked for a French business in the 70's & 80's and picked up a lot of words. I have a black cat, who acts very similar to yours. I'd love to see more of your videos and of course, I just had to paste it to FB & email my Cat friends too!
lol I love all of these videos
omg!! thank you so much. henri is wonderful and so are his house mates. my 3 are lazing around right now, stoned on cat nip and full on treats. merry christmas to you and your lovely cats!!!
I avoid youtube comments. AT ALL COST. Except for comments on Henri video's. They always give me a smile.
I'm alone as well and found it very funny. Have a happy Christmas. There is always something to laugh at.
Oh Henri, you remind me so much of my beloved cat Felix who passed away last week aged 24. I love to watch you, so droll! xx
for the French it means something! :) the black cat " le chat noir" is a symbol of Paris, it was a club in the 1920's (long gone since then) but its logo can still be found all around paris, it's really famous and it looks kindda like the logo of Henri le chat noir. Culture...
Catghosts of Christmas. Rest In Peace Henri, 12/10/2020😓
Definitely one of the best yet. Very close to getting me out of my black depression. At least elicited a few smiles...
Yes. When I hit a wave of depression, naps are my only respite, that and this video .
I love Henri, he looks just like my cat Ulysses. Ulysses is a quiet cat and tolerates humans and other cats well, but has an attitude to him. These videos are just fantastic! Great work!
I am looking forward to Henri's psyche in 2013
Keep that cat in good health!!
Happy New year!
A most happy holiday to you, Henri, my beloved philosopher cat. Oh how I love you.
I love you Henri. Don't ever change!
Joyeux Noël Henri et la famille!
Merry Christmas Henri. You've taught me alot about meaningless sharing!
Remember Tom Paul Satre, dear Henri, he said "In a word, a cat must create an own essence: it is in throwing oneself into the world, suffering there, struggling there, that one gradually defines oneself."
I nearly don´t dare to say Merry Christmas! xxx´s
such a diverse set of characters
I love the Christmas Story reference with the "Major Award" leg lamp next to the other awards!
Quelle me'ange....the Christmas Story, A Christmas Carol, Edith Piaf....what a fun way to end Christmas. I suppose I should be thankful.... Love it!
Henri is the best! I love his philosophizing in French....que belle!!
I must disagree with the comment below regarding Charles Dickens. He was a literary artist of the highest caliber; our dear Henri, a French speaking feline philosopher, is right there with Dickens. That is the brilliance of Henri's artistry! Though he may be a cat, he makes us laugh and makes us cry. If I don't stop watching these videos, I am going to have to attend HA (Henri's Anonymous) classes as I am totally addicted to Henri. Merry Christmas dear Henri, Love, Anna
"The worst Noel"
When i saw the title in my subscription box, i already had to laugh.
Merry Christmas Henri and friends!
Joyeux Noel Henri!!
I love you Henri 💗
I love this channel XD
I see it more as Henri's 'Christmas Carol' with his own past, present and future coming to haunt him.
I love Henri! :)
Aw, all the cats are beautiful!
