I don’t know why but I love this video. It looks dangerous for this cat; this tabby cat who looks as comfortable as he could be with not a care in the world. This domestic cat looks as if he is perched on the back of the sofa in the living room nuzzling against his human companion but he is travelling at up to about 25 mph on his companion’s back in what appears to be, at times, heavy traffic.
When a police car or a fire engine goes by this charming cat crouches low on his companion’s back and hides behind his helmet. That is as far as it goes in terms of “hiding” and soon afterwards he is back to his normal self.
You would think that he might fall off. I am sure that many people would look upon this as irresponsible cat caretaking and it might be but it is wild spirited and full of joie de vivre (the joys of life).
The man looks very confident and sure that his cat is safe. I think I can trust him. I think I can trust his judgement and I also believe that he is a loving cat guardian to his charming little tabby cat. What do you think?
Far too risky! Taking a cat into traffic like that is very irresponsible, yes he looks happy enough for most of the time but his body and claws must be very tense with clinging on.
The rider can’t be giving his full attention to the road with the cat there, to me it looks as if it’s only a matter of time until the cat is hurt in an accident.
Sorry to be a killjoy but with me the cat’s welfare ALWAYS comes first.
It makes me nervous just thinking about it. But I have seen this first hand in Toronto once. It was a tabby cat too. I think if the cat fell he wouldn’t bolt because he is used to the surroundings.
