Ok.... this is sad, and funny at the same time!


Added: Please forgive my sense of humor.... I do feel bad for the kitty, and I don't want this to be read the wrong way. I said it was funny, funny like watching a friend fall in front of you... Looking objectively, at the fact, on what happened, the music, the spectators, etc. I know the owner and the kitty were terrified, and on that level it is not funny at all... Anyway, I am a cat lover, otherwise I wouldn't be here - I just don't want my sense of humor to be misunderstood...
Thanks!

As someone who has showed her cat that's just my nightmare and not really funny at all.
Luckily dEUS always used to be super relaxed but you never know what unexpected thing might startle a cat especially when handled by a stranger.

He used to be very content to sit on my lap or on my chair when I had to do something closeby (of course I always had several friends next to us watching him too), but he is also the kind of cat who would've liked to go explore the showhall just for the heck of it

Don't take me wrong... I feel bad for the kitty... It's just so unexpected, that it is a funny situation... I know it is funny because it's not my kitty though... But it would be a good video for America's Funniest Videos...

I don't think the video is funny either.

Farley took a run over to the long hair section once, mishandling between the judge and steward - no hissing or anything just had a chance and took it.

That is why I haven't taken mine to the HHP even though I've considered it a great deal. I worry that Riley especially would freak out and jump off the table and make a run for it.
