...or you could save $2,000 & get a real cat

I saw these on an online commercial...they're kind of creepy & fairly realistic in their movements:

What do you think...fabulous or freakish?

Ummmmmm.....ok....

What's the point?

michelle325 · Apr 30, 2006

They look kind of ticked off! lol

commonoddity042 · Apr 30, 2006

Very interesting what people will pay for a simulation...

fwan · Apr 30, 2006

I guess this only suits people who cant be bothered to feed and clean a real cat?

krazy kat2 · Apr 30, 2006

That would creep me out having that thing sround! It looks mad.

pushylady · Apr 30, 2006

They do look kinda angry. Why'd they make them look so mean?
I'd secretly like to get one just to freak out my real cats!

Next time they keep me up all night, I'll bring out RoboCat to sort them out.

zissou'smom · Apr 30, 2006

...terrifying.

jakkies · Apr 30, 2006

Cute idea if you don't have the space for a real kitty but really want a pet of some sort. *shrug* don't see the scary part myself but then again I would love the robo dog Aibo that is available.

sanctie · Apr 30, 2006

Seems like too much money for an imitation that I don't think can even come close! Although, I wonder...these cats probably wouldn't pull all of my tupperware out of my cabinets or hog the bed...hmmm, just maybe....

LOL, nope, I love my kiddo too much!

For people with more money than sense -- I guess they want an animated stuffed toy and no litter scooping. Whatever works, I suppose -- I'll take the real thing, thanks.

im sorry but i wouldnt pay that when i could have a real cat from a cat rescue and give a donation

lionessrampant · Apr 30, 2006

erm....I'm terrified of robots. No thanks from me too.

clixpix · Apr 30, 2006

I found out about these when I saw a video of them. If you think they're creepy in the pictures, you should see them in action! They're actually pretty lifelike!

jcat · Apr 30, 2006

No, thanks. They're still toys, not pets.

Still, with the way some people have treated their pets, they would be better off with robots. We've heard too many stories of pets being abandoned because they didn't behave as expected.

They look creepy! I'd rather have the real thing!

babyharley · Apr 30, 2006

Yikes, they look so creepy!

I'll take a real cat, thanks!

eburgess · Apr 30, 2006

that's just scary

halfpint · Apr 30, 2006

I think I'll keep what I have

Mine are just a tad more life like
