This is an unbelievable video. I will try to activate it.

I have seen it in the past. One brave kitty and a bunch of callous humans.

What I saw had no sound, but obviously someone was recording the video. I won't bother trying to activate it if you've all seen it and dislike it. It was fed to my FB page by a website devoted to chronic Lyme disease and seemed to represent a "David v. Goliath" message against the CDC. Even without sound I did worry about the kitty though.

They were laughing and cheering the kitty! Not one person was worried about the cat! It was bad enough when one was out, but then two came up and still no one thought to get the cat out of harms way.

Yes they were...that is what made me sick.

Ford...no problem...the cat did win...I am just upset with the humans cheering and laughing...not trying to save the cat.

As I said, the newsfeed I get on my FB regards Chronic Lyme Disease which my daughter has been afflicted with. There was no sound, as the point the sender was making was the "David" (Lyme) v. Goliath (CDC) analogy. She (he) probably didn't want the sound to distract from the point.

Now that I realize there were supposed "human beings" there laughing about this, I am very sorry I posted it.

Horrible. I completely goofed by posting this. I have always wished there was some way to retract a post.

Oh dear. That would be the aspect of it that would make me sick also. :'( That's just very sad. I'm glad the kitty won but I wouldn't be able to watch something like that.

That's what a lot of people do now - they video stuff where others are at peril instead of helping. I guess it's the 'new normal' but nobody has to like it.

No disrespect to Ford, OF COURSE! I know you posted it because the kitty wins and meant no harm. It's just the 'thing' that would bother some of us.

I don't think you meant any ill-will and if anybody thinks that you did, I am going on the record to say that they are wrong.

Everybody has a way of looking at everything, through their own lens so what might hit somebody in the gut right away might not for somebody else.

Chicken these humans were totally disgusting..laughing while that cat was in harms way. Thank goodness the cat was fine...slapped the you know what out of that alligator.

Ford you did nothing to feel bad about...we were just commenting on the stupid humans. I in no way am traumatized...you meant no harm.

Yes, so true, I was looking at it from a completely different angle. Had I heard it, I would have not liked it, nor posted it. I feel the same way you all do.

Thanks everyone for your understanding.

That video may not be as bad as it might appear. I'm wondering if that's the same one that Animal Planet aired a couple of years ago, about a cat named Mugsy who's quite a celebrity in his community, & with the gator-watching tourists, for smacking down gators who get too close. Check out "the cat who slaps gators" on youtube.

chickenbutt — Wed, 04 Feb 2015 23:01:24 GMT

Thanks, Ford! We don't agree on everything, but I know you didn't mean this in a bad way at all so I have to speak up on your behalf, as did Croemer.

I'm glad that the cat didn't become the gators lunch, but I have to wonder, if the idiots would have continued to laugh, if the cat had become the gators lunch?

OMG, that cat could have easily been a meal for that alligator, they can move as fast as a car.
