Bird Rides Cat - Do NOT Try This At Home | Cat Care, Breeds and Resources Blog

Every once in a while I find a video I have to share with you. This is one. This cat just doesn’t seem to mind that the bird is riding on his back. Years ago, I had friends, Richard and Jenifer, who had cats, birds and fish. I used take care of the menagerie when they were gone. They had one bird that would taunt the cats. I don’t believe he was doing it on purpose. He simply repeated what he heard.

Anyway, one day I walked in and found the bird in his very large cage, hanging upside down and swinging back and forth saying, “Here kitty, kitty. Here, kitty, kitty. I’m gonna kick your butt. I’m gonna kick your butt.” The funny thing is one of the cats was walking underneath his cage at precisely that time. She stopped and looked up at the bird, then continued on as if nothing had happened. Totally unreal!

The bird had heard Richard, playing with one of the young kittens used those words. Whenever Richard would say that, the kitten would jump on the bed and they would play. Believe my he did not kick the cat’s butt. The cat and he would play in the blankets and have a good time. Believe me, all of their animals were well loved and cared for. Better than most children.

Do not try this at home! If you have a cat and a bird, do not put your bird on your cat’s back. It may not end as happy as this video.

Kira here. Yeah, I remember Richard. He used to come and tell me he was gonna kick my butt too. I showed him. I was so fast, when he threw the ball I’d have it back before it left his hand. I showed him who was boss. It wears me out just thinking about it. I was much younger then. Just had my 13th birthday but I could still beat ole Richard. Well, just remembering has made my sleepy. Gonna go nap. Kira
