I have the clumsiest cat on the planet. She does this shit all the time. The best part is getting eye contact with them in that split second where their paws graze past their goal and the cat realizes its not going to make it.

I love how they get really embarrassed and try to play off their derped-up jumps.

I'm pretty sure one of mine is a little slow. One afternoon, he was sitting on the back of an armchair, and suddenly fell off the back, making a ton of racket falling into the blinds. When he came around to the front of the chair, he glared at one of the other cats, who was all the way across the room, as if to say, "What the hell did you do that for?"

Maybe he doesn't see on one eye - check it. 3D vision is important in such jumps.

I guess he was just sterilized, still on drugs.

Yeah- She is a rescue cat and I suspect she might have had some eye infection that messed up her one eye. I know she can see out of both, and she brings home prey just fine, but sometimes for a few seconds one eyeball gets all lazy and derpy-looking.

He probably wouldn't make it in the wild :)

I have a "special" cat as well. She hits her head on our coffee table after missing landing all the time. It's funny because she always looks at me to see if I saw it happen, then goes about her business. And no, I'm sure she wouldn't survive in the wild.

Normally those slow-motion replays are just stupid and annoying but that one was amazing.

[–]TitusUMMS 0 points1 point ago

I laughed until the slow-mo replay and then I laughed so hard I cried. My god, how did the internets fail to bring me this video.

I guess its true what they say, cats always land on their feet, or directly on their skull.

[–]BlueBusDriver 0 points1 point ago

I dunnoo, if you watch it again. The animal manages to fucking teleportation-flip right side up as it hit the ground.

My exact words to my wife when I opened the link. It took an effort of will to stop watching!

Looks like it locked up in the middle of the jump. It must be one of these.

[–]epsilona01 6 points7 points ago

There's a piece of paper under its hind feet. When it tries to jump, the paper slides, fucking up the jump.

The cat is coming off anesthesia.

It's a cat coming out of a k-hole.

When my cat had to get some stitches from a fight, he came back from the vet all drugged out like that. It was the hardest I've ever laughed, and I'm not exaggerating.

[–]monochromatic_oeuvre 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Oh. That's a lot less funny than the gif.

[–]Cadvin 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Not too much less funny; if a cat is actually in pain or sick, they typically will go under something and hide. That look of stiff, awkward walking is more like when you give them a bath and they're like "Oh-good-jesus-what-is-this". At least, I hope.

[–]evil_twin 0 points1 point ago

yeah, it locked up in the middle once it realized this happened.

the cat seems to slow down, almost frozen in time, and then plummets to the ground, cliffhanging on the bed with trusty paw

funny when it is a cat, way sad when it is an old person. Why: I will never be a cat that can't jump on the bed, but there is a huge possibility that I will be an old person who can't get on the bed by themselves.

You should have seen my cat when his paw got cought in the carpet thread. He is an outdoor cat who rarely goes inside and he was really surprised, i had to hold him because he was running in circles making it even worse. :) I think I fail at internetz - I should have filmed him instead of helping him.

One of my cat's is completely blind in one eye and partially in the other and he does this kind of thing all the time. But he's a trooper; He'll just get up and try again.

I could not find the original but I remember this video being posted with a mention of anesthesia.

[–]IGottaSnake 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

This was on Reddit a little while back and I think they said the cat was still groggy from anesthesia.

[–]SvenHudson 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Nah, the cat's fine. It just didn't realize the bit of fabric it jumped from didn't have traction to the floor.

[–]IGottaSnake 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

No. As I said... this was discussed before. The cat was groggy from anesthesia. Video.

[–]no_pants -2 points-1 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

my buddies cat has this. its caused by the mother having a parasite during birth and basically makes the offspring permanently unbalanced. When they jump they jumped all stiff legged and miss their jumps like that. They also walk around an fall over at random and face plant which is great.

[–]piratepixie 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Because coming off anaesthesia is completely the same as being medically unbalanced due to parasites.

[–]IGottaSnake 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I was so confused. I had to go back and look at my comment to be sure I didn't screw up what I was trying to say. Then, I saw that I did not and was even more confused.

[–]no_pants 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

late replay, but yeah i was pointing out this that this is caused by a parasite and not anesthesia. Many cats have this problem.

[–]IGottaSnake 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Yeah, but the cat in the video did not have whatever it is you are talking about. You may have meant to say some cats have issues because of a parasite, but your comment is worded to mean that whatever it is you are talking about and this cat/my comment are the same, and they are not.

[–]no_pants 0 points1 point ago*

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Didnt mean to confuse you, I simply made the suggestion because you said:

I think they said the cat was still groggy from anesthesia

Instead of:

I think they said the cat was still groggy from anesthesia

I see now, your have a video link comment that was posted to someone in a completely different branch of conversation. That was not there when I originally posted. Anyways hope that clears up why I posted the parasite suggestion. Fucking forums, how do they work?

This is dangerously close to a Youtube comment.
