[–]Herpderp62 0 points1 point ago

Welcome to the internet/reddit. But you are right, most stuff is reposted way too much.

That ending was simply amazing.

Lovely sounds! Have a trombone quartet version:

I love your initiative. I may or may not have bookmarked your Soundcloud. :D

[–]StoneJones 2 points3 points ago

You are awesome, teach me to do what you do.

[–]zoodiary8 21 points22 points ago

and atleast she never gave up!

[–]orange_kevin 11 points12 points ago

How are we sure its a she?

[–]Innappropriate_Uncle 13 points14 points ago

Don't downvote this guy. It's actually a boy-cat.

The video makes it pretty obvious towards the end.

[–]orange_kevin 0 points1 point ago

I still can't tell, I was just questioning the assumption that s/he was a she haha!

[–]Innappropriate_Uncle 0 points1 point ago

Take my word for it. :P I know cat-balls when I see them.

[–]orange_kevin 0 points1 point ago

I have a sense someone's going to link to a hairbls picture in a bit...

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points ago

Well, how do we know it's a he?

[–]TheresJustNoWay 16 points17 points ago

Grrr I'm going to get you this ti--OH SHIIIIIIIIIiiiii....!!

[–]BearSheriff 3 points4 points ago

If someone's annoying you, just ignoring them, and eventually... they'll fall off a table.

[–]kiddhitta 3 points4 points ago

Crazy kitty just being crazy.....kitty.

[–]daskrip 4 points5 points ago

an adverb and an adjective. WHAT ARE YOU IMPLYING HERE?

[–]zoodiary8 2 points3 points ago

Fun. ;)

[–]Cousin_Oliver -2 points-1 points ago

How the hell can 6000 people dislike this?!

[–]mialbowy 0 points1 point ago

Apparently a shorter version of the gif was posted a couple of days ago. The rest didn't wait for the ending.

[–]christianabiera 66 points67 points ago

Oh god, now I have to clean up these rainbows all over my desk.

[–]thavi 6 points7 points ago

So that's what happens when you fap to kittens.

[–]Ruvaak 3 points4 points ago

No, that's when you cumfetti.

[–]copyandpasta 14 points15 points ago

Too many boops. Can't handle it.

[–]PaiMei 148 points149 points ago

I'm a little worried that I just watched a gif of a dead cat.

[–]Seregnar 74 points75 points ago

I was kind of worried about the same thing, but it moves its tail a little bit.

Everyone can feel free to "Aww" without guilt.

[–]tsk05 46 points47 points ago

Well that and you can see it breathing right before the other cat falls down.

[–]Seregnar 32 points33 points ago

Whoops, sometimes I do forget about that whole breathing thing that some creatures need to do. My bad!

[–]joeryanisaocelot 6 points7 points ago

There have been some dead cat gifs circulating though, so treat every cat gif you see with caution!

[–]Niitze 4 points5 points ago

I think you can see him breathing through the whole gif actually.

[–]lilzilla 9 points10 points ago

Naw, look at his tummy. He's breathing. And moving his tail in the tail bit.

[–]jad7845 6 points7 points ago

Young cats and dogs will do that. We had one hyperactive puppy who would go insane for like an hour straight and then suddenly lay down and become a completely immovable object.

[–]arkanemusic 3 points4 points ago

you can see the cat breath in right before the end

[–]gijane480 3 points4 points ago

it's a bit like a simba/ mufasa impression isn't tit

[–]Temptress75519 1 point2 points ago

I now haz a sad. :-(

[–]deemeetree 1 point2 points ago

You can see it breathing at the last scene.

[–]plinking_zombies 0 points1 point ago

It's sweet of you to be worried, but on the other hand, I've had cats that do that. And then after about 20 minutes either they get up and stroll away or turn around and shred your face. Also see some of the other unperturbed kitty gifs in this thread. [edit for brevity]

[–]Whilyam 0 points1 point ago

I can see the story on the news now "Redditor films cat cannibalizing dead cat"

[–]IndifferentMorality -1 points0 points ago

I'm a little worried the cat was/is being drugged for our entertainment.

[–]withmorten 46 points47 points ago

Wasn't that posted here just yesterday?

[–]poptart2nd 13 points14 points ago

yeah, and it was even on the front page. i usually don't complain about reposters, but fucking god damn.

[–]StallordD 2 points3 points ago

I think there should be a one week break before anyone reposts a front page post. At least then it would seem a little more original.

[–]Numlocks -2 points-1 points ago

You know what I hate more than reposters? YOU.

[–]irrelevant_thoughts 0 points1 point ago

Yes but this gif is longer than the other one actually.

[–]withmorten 0 points1 point ago

Yesterday the OP posted the full video in the comments ..

[–][deleted] 26 points27 points ago

I think pretty much all female Redditors would be able to relate to this.

[–]Sykoticstalker27 7 points8 points ago

And any redditors with kids.

[–]TheMadHatter_9 8 points9 points ago

I thinking more along the lines of, "Probably how my girlfriend feels when I want sex and she's tired."

I think that was (sort of) the title of another gif where a dog's tail kept hitting a cat in the face.

[–]SilentLettersSuck 1 point2 points ago

all parents

[–]Walter_Bishop_PhD 2 points3 points ago

Where's the video of this? This is too good to only be a GIF

[–]rEliseMe 1 point2 points ago

I second this request.

[–]khasiv 1 point2 points ago

[–]chlois18 12 points13 points ago

This was literally posted 2 days ago...

[–]Numlocks -2 points-1 points ago

Then how come I haven't seen it President Lincoln?

[–]bird_brian_fellow 1 point2 points ago

Someone's not.

[–]steps_on_lego 1 point2 points ago

Kids these days have no respect for elders.

[–]garychencool 1 point2 points ago

[–]Stadius1 1 point2 points ago

[–]Chakra_Flow 1 point2 points ago

Hey... hey... hey... hey... you awake? you awake? you awake? hey... you awake you awa-thump ow... :3

[–]padthai93 1 point2 points ago

Pretty sure this is a repost. The original gif pasted a couple days ago wasnt as long but this has definitely been posted before

[–]ComediaDasein 19 points20 points ago

This is a repost from like 2 days ago. I realize not everything's going to be new on Reddit, but you can't wait for a longer turn around?

[–]Macrat 10 points11 points ago

actually this gif is longer...

[–]listentohim 0 points1 point ago

Yeah, not sure why the .gif was cut down in the first part, but at least this one added something new.

[–]DownvotesOwnPost 1 point2 points ago

Can't wait for the one next week!

[–]photosensitiv 43 points44 points ago

the only thing more annoying than reposts is people bitching about reposts.

[–]SquirrelPower 40 points41 points ago

And cancer. Cancer is more annoying than reposts.

[–][deleted] 9 points10 points ago

Also, any mass extinction that happens to include your own species. At least as annoying as reposts.

[–]MakoBoy 3 points4 points ago

Also, the heat death of the universe. Really annoying.

[–]photosensitiv 1 point2 points ago

touché

[–]JenksAlamo 3 points4 points ago

If multiple people continue to say repost, is that not also a repost?

[–][deleted] ago

[deleted]

[–]NoNeedForAName 5 points6 points ago

You know what else is easily preventable by just not doing it? Reposts.

[–][deleted] ago

[deleted]

[–]NoNeedForAName 4 points5 points ago

Yeah, there's also the fact that we don't have a search bar or karmadecay. Oh wait...

[–]siglug -1 points0 points ago

Do you expect people to randomly type "someones tired" to the search bar?

[–]NoNeedForAName 1 point2 points ago

Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. That's why I also included karmadecay. You can't just ignore half of my comment and consider it a win.

[–]siglug -1 points0 points ago

I'm talking about myself, not the guy who made the thread. How am I supposed to see this gif if it's not posted here now?

[–]NoNeedForAName 1 point2 points ago

To be honest, I agree with you. I was really just trying to make a joke with my first post, and I kind of ran with it. I've always been one of those "If people don't want to see it they'll downvote it" kind of guys. There have been plenty of posts that I've seen for the first time that had people bitching about them being reposts in the comments.

It's a little different when it's just been a day or two, but I think the same principles apply.

[–]CUNTBERT_RAPINGTON 0 points1 point ago

Instead of selfishly hoping to see something that's only new for you, it'll be replaced on the front page by something that's hopefully new for everyone.

[–]Jel251 1 point2 points ago

was posted yesterday but its w/e shits cute

[–]deksterr 10 points11 points ago

repost bro.

[–]COCKLAPS -5 points-4 points ago

Get a life bro.

[–]deksterr 0 points1 point ago

Your life is cats bro.

[–]mtpelletier31 4 points5 points ago

"but I'm le tired"

[–]HighDice 3 points4 points ago

My ex used to do this to me in the mornings but only on days when I didn't have anything to do, drove me crazy. I kind of miss it now.

Anybody have the video source for this?

[–]dcoxen 4 points5 points ago

[–]momarian 1 point2 points ago

No fucks given. Whatsoever.

[–]BitchMaker 1 point2 points ago

Sorry to be that guy but this was posted no more than 2 days ago

[–]zoodiary8 0 points1 point ago

aww, I love the White one...

[–]15sunrises 0 points1 point ago

I'm glad that eventually you see the cat breathing...

[–]antocc 0 points1 point ago

it's so awesome when kittens get so caught up in the playing that they just forget what's around them and fall/bump/crash

[–]Unik0rnKing 0 points1 point ago

If I didn't see it breathe I would have sworn it was dead.

[–]UberZeal 0 points1 point ago

I thought it was dead at first :C

[–]bdsisme 0 points1 point ago

Someone's dead.

[–]colin22[!] 0 points1 point ago

This is the best thing I've ever seen.

(Okay, well, best thing I've ever seen until the next cat gif gets posted)

[–]chaivert 0 points1 point ago

Why won't you love meeeeeeee????//

[–]Fingerpickingood 0 points1 point ago

I usually stay out of the internet's cat obsession, but this is pretty much the most adorable thing I've ever seen.

[–]one-eleven 0 points1 point ago

These are actually clips from the live action Garfield TV show. Stupid Nermal, he never learns.

[–]inluh 0 points1 point ago

and someone is knocked out.

[–]chewtality 0 points1 point ago

This is just more proof to my theory that cats don't give a fuck.

[–]abom420 0 points1 point ago

Fuck off Martin.... I said FUCK OFF MARTIN!

[–]Povidius 0 points1 point ago

Well, there goes my morning...

[–]Darduel 0 points1 point ago

Someone`s dead*

sry i had to

[–]raehza 0 points1 point ago

This is pretty much me and the wife after sexy time. Me being the sleeping kitten of course.

[–]flitterella 0 points1 point ago

Me being a perpetual early riser, this is basically me at every sleepover I went to in my youth.

[–]me_can_san45 0 points1 point ago

this has made my day, i don't care if it is a repost this is just simply cute

[–]Holystone 0 points1 point ago

someone's not.

[–]shitisalive 0 points1 point ago

Smh.. probably fake sleeping

[–]firesquasher 0 points1 point ago

This looks like me trying to get my wife in the mood for sexah times at night.

[–]emilysbs 0 points1 point ago

Holy Shit... that is the cutest fucking thing I have ever seen. ever.

[–]thehdtv 0 points1 point ago

or the cat is just pretending to be asleep so the other one will fuck the piss off

[–]cellikat 0 points1 point ago

Cute, but basically a repost. Not the exact same thing but GIFs from the same video. :C

[–]Postsrelevantreddit 0 points1 point ago

Boy, this would sure be a hit at /r/sleepycat

[–]thewhalesvagina 0 points1 point ago

Hey! Leave him alone right meow!

[–]Hyakiss 0 points1 point ago

And then someone will come along and ruin my day by telling me that the sleeping cat has a disorder and will be dead within a week.

[–]HankSinatra 0 points1 point ago

I love how every cat doesn't give a fuck about falling to its death upside down and head first.

[–]ElderBass 0 points1 point ago

Zero. Fucks. Given.

[–]molasses 0 points1 point ago

THIS is the perfect response to any internet troll. Just ignore them until they fall off the edge.

[–]mrBigBoi 0 points1 point ago

I guess the grey cat slept only 22 hours that day so it is still tired.

That's the cutest gif I've ever seen. And I lurk /r/aww a lot, so that means a lot.

[–]nousernameissafe 0 points1 point ago

The lazy cat is me, and the white cat my husband. I only wish he would fall to his side of bed.

[–]nightingala 0 points1 point ago

Sleepy kittens are the cutest; and are only matched by determined kittens that gently/safely tumble off of things.

[–]Viva42 0 points1 point ago

[–]MVolta 1 point2 points ago

You can see some slight breathing throughout. In the second scene, he moves his tail about, and he takes a big, noticeable breath in the last scene.

But cats are sleepy fucks, so that explains the looking like death

[–]LegallyDrunk 1 point2 points ago

uh you didn't notice the tail moving?

[–]TalonTrax 4 points5 points ago

I saw him breathe... Unless someone has inserted a hose into his lungs and is filling it up and releasing slowly off camera to simulate breathing..
