The second video (Hot Spot) has been out for some time. I've been waiting for the Snow Business part 2 to see what happens between the bird and the cat. The things this cat does exemplifies my cat's behavior in more than one way... My favorite one of his videos is <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4rb8aOzy9t4">Let Me In</a>.comment:www.metafilter.com,2009:site.87743-2876123Tue, 22 Dec 2009 21:02:11 -0800msbutahBy: embrangled

Aww, I think Simon's cat is entirely worthy of such enthusiasm. And I'm sober.

'ray! Thanks HuronBob. Simon's Cat pretty much mirrors our cat's behaviour. As previously mentioned on the green, if he develops opposable thumbs I'm doomed.comment:www.metafilter.com,2009:site.87743-2876191Tue, 22 Dec 2009 21:57:02 -0800arcticsealBy: chudbeagle

Amusing, and odd. Perhaps, too much butthole. We have 5 cats, and I've seen enough cat anii to last a lifetime.
Very ironic, as I saw the book on sale (even cheaper than ordering online which I always do for books) tonight Christmas shopping for my wife but didn't get it. Now I'm gonna have to go back and get the damn thing!

They should do a Garfield minus Garfield with Simon's Cat. Instead of it being the story of Jon Arbuckle's slow descent into madness it would chronicle Simon's cursed life of terror at the hand of maleovalent poltergeist.comment:www.metafilter.com,2009:site.87743-2876245Wed, 23 Dec 2009 00:27:22 -0800PenDevilBy: fearfulsymmetry

What I think elevates these above a lot of other similar work is that, separate from the anthropomorphic behavior (throwing snowballs, ringing doorbells, etc) which are needed to drive the story, the cat acting like a cat actions are <em>really </em>good. Watching the kitty duel with the bird is fun, but watching the kitty investigate the snow is a truism for anyone who has been around cats and got a huge smile from me.
Now. When do we get to find out what happens with the bird?comment:www.metafilter.com,2009:site.87743-2876460Wed, 23 Dec 2009 07:46:22 -0800quinBy: schoolgirl report

The earliest Simon's Cat videos are the best, but they're all pretty great. The degree of anthropomorphic behavior has increased as they've gone on, and the best part of the videos is how ridiculously accurate their depiction is of simultaneously adorable and annoying cat behavior. Also the cat noise sound effects are pretty great.comment:www.metafilter.com,2009:site.87743-2876863Wed, 23 Dec 2009 11:51:49 -0800CaduceusBy: Zinger

*Thanks* for this!! I'd seen Simon before, but hadn't thought about showing them to my kids (5 and 3) until this was posted. They are absolutely incapacitated with laughter right now, and it's the best sound in the world.

Simon's cat is cool, but I must admit being disappointed to find the "NEW" videos were actually kind of old (at least in internetcat years) With the headline mentioning holdiays I was expecting snow day part 2 and some kind of "cat vs the christmas tree" episode.comment:www.metafilter.com,2009:site.87743-2877182Wed, 23 Dec 2009 14:23:00 -0800mrgoldenbrown
"Yes. Something that interested us yesterday when we saw it." "Where is she?" His lodgings were situated at the lower end of the town. The accommodation consisted[Pg 64] of a small bedroom, which he shared with a fellow clerk, and a place at table with the other inmates of the house. The street was very dirty, and Mrs. Flack's house alone presented some sign of decency and respectability. It was a two-storied red brick cottage. There was no front garden, and you entered directly into a living room through a door, upon which a brass plate was fixed that bore the following announcement:¡ª The woman by her side was slowly recovering herself. A minute later and she was her cold calm self again. As a rule, ornament should never be carried further than graceful proportions; the arrangement of framing should follow as nearly as possible the lines of strain. Extraneous decoration, such as detached filagree work of iron, or painting in colours, is [159] so repulsive to the taste of the true engineer and mechanic that it is unnecessary to speak against it.

The professor doesn't seem to realize Down the middle of the Ganges a white bundle is being borne, and on it a crow pecking the body of a child wrapped in its winding-sheet. 53 The attention of the public was now again drawn to those unnatural feuds which disturbed the Royal Family. The exhibition of domestic discord and hatred in the House of Hanover had, from its first ascension of the throne, been most odious and revolting. The quarrels of the king and his son, like those of the first two Georges, had begun in Hanover, and had been imported along with them only to assume greater malignancy in foreign and richer soil. The Prince of Wales, whilst still in Germany, had formed a strong attachment to the Princess Royal of Prussia. George forbade the connection. The prince was instantly summoned to England, where he duly arrived in 1728. "But they've been arrested without due process of law.

Reuben did not go to the Fair that autumn¡ªthere being no reason why he should and several why he shouldn't. He went instead to see Richard, who was down for a week's rest after a tiring case. Reuben thought a dignified aloofness the best attitude to maintain towards his son¡ªthere was no need for them to be on bad terms, but he did not want anyone to imagine that he approved of Richard or thought his success worth while. Richard, for his part, felt kindly disposed towards his father, and a little sorry for him in his isolation. He invited him to dinner once or twice, and, realising his picturesqueness, was not ashamed to show him to his friends.
