We recently got a Roku player for the living room.  They have a cat channel on there that I put on just to see what it was like.  Mooch and Noodles LOVE it!!  Noodles was dozing on the arm of the couch and then she heard a bird coo...her head snapped up and she was into it!  I eventually had to turn it off before they attacked the TV!!

CatTV addiction treatment might be in order in our house soon! 
  I hope you've got that TV tied  back to the wall and secured for when your two little darlings decide to pack hunt and leap over the back of the set to try and capture their prey.

Eeek I know that is my worry!! 
I do have it strapped to the back of the cabinet it's on; but the straps are designed to keep it from falling forward; not back!  Because we have it at an angle it's harder to secure in a way.  I think either way; if they sent it backward; it would damage the walls.  I'm definitely going to have to limit their TV time!
  I really never would have thought these 2 would be so into it.

Ha ha, good luck to you on the limiting the viewing!   You may need to unplug the set.    Mouse managed to turn my TV on one night.  The stupid design has the conrols on the top and he's used to me looking peeved if he sits up there with his butt on the channel button.....  usually at the key moment in whatever I'm watching.  Then one evening when I had a load of people round he jumped up and hit the on button - he was the only one that wasn't startled worryingly. 
  My TV isn't even held back by a strap to the wall but I know it should be.  Thankfully the base is fairly stable. I'd put it on a wall bracket but the walls in this building are like dust and wouldn't take it.
