The end times would truly be upon us if this ever happened.

This is Tabitha, one of the Upstairs Cats from “Breaking Cat News”…

ummm, is anyone else annoyed that the AppleTV remote the guy is holding doesn’t actually have a laser pointer?

Seems like an alternate win-condition in Space-Time for Springers.

People can be so cruel. And hilarious.

My friend’s cat is a wildling she took in.

She turns on the laser pointer, and the cat immediately turns and looks at the source of the beam–considers it for a moment–and then proceed to chase it anyways knowing it isn’t real.

True. I thought it was the end times for my cat’s vision, once she figured out where the laser dot came from and charged at the pointer in my hand. The beam caught her right in the eyes! :heart_eyes_cat: :scream_cat: :crying_cat_face:

Damn, why didn’t I think of that? It would’ve solved the whole “beam in the eyes” problem!

But not the “beam in your eyes” problem.

Good point. I wonder if a camera and a remote play space would work…

As a dumb kid, I once tied a balloon to a cat’s tail.
Boy was that a mistake.

OT, but I wonder if Matthew 7:5 foretold the coming of Scott Summers.
