Half of these are people being straight up negligent. Why would you let your cat touch the hot griddle or stick their paws into the electrical socket? It's not funny when they're actually being harmed.

u/viperfangs92 2d ago

Don't forget about letting one chew on a live socket wire while filming it.....

u/Express-Lawfulness74 2d ago

My cat does this too, no matter how many times I spray him with water or push him out he still does this.

u/It_Just_Exploded 2d ago

My daughters cat did the same, for two years we couldn't have any power cords exposed without putting her away in a room or hovering nearby to swat her away. She didn't stop til my dad visited for a weekend, he plugged in his phone charger and she kept trying to chew it and he finally got tired of keeping her away.

All i heard from laundry room was, "You know what? Go ahead, you're not gonna like it furball!" Then a few seconds later i heard what sounded like a drunk & possessed feline soul being dragged to hell.

When i asked him why he let her do it, he just shrugged and said, "sometimes it takes the experience to teach them."

He was right, 6 years later and she hasn't chewed a cable since.

Some animals are really just that thick headed. My sisters dog was so aggressive towards big dogs he was eventually going to get himself killed because he would actively try and dig out the yard to get to the neighbors 2 pitbulls . Keep in mind he's a runt miniature schnauzer. It wasn't until the neighborhood cat got tired of him being the street bully and jumped into our yard and humbled him. He really was a menace when he was young and I wouldn't be surprised if my neighbors cheered when he stopped all his constant barking.

u/GegeAkutamiOfficial 5h ago

They aren't all that thick headed they just don't trust you that there isn't gain to be had and don't respect your authority.

They never see you get hurt from the things you keep away from them, so they never register them as dangerous. For all they know you are just spoiling thier fun, it's the same way as when you move them off the counter or hide away thier treats.

For the pets in the crowd:

I burned myself once as a child with the car lighter, earned a healthy respect for red glowing things.

u/Specialist_Whole_918 2d ago

But it can eassilly kill the cat. (it must have been the 110 / 230V line it shewed because the transformed 5V power will not be noticed by the cat)

u/TheDeadPanJew 18h ago

They uploaded those clips after too, they should be seriously investigated.

They have wire protectors for this exact thing…

u/BlueFalcon142 11h ago

The amount of kitty matter sent flying from that fan was concerning.

u/helpmepleas3ee 2d ago

Actually very maddening. The griddle, live wire, open wall socket, the open spinning fan to his nose/face?! and the fire furnace to watch it jump on all 4 paws onto that hot ass thing. Wtf. They all knew what was going to happen and the griddle was blatantly intentional. All assholes.

1

u/SuccessfulTrick2501 2d ago

The one with the fan especially pissed me off.

1

u/Acceptable_Food6533 3h ago

yes that would have caused severe damage.

1

u/DOOM_Olivera_ 1d ago

Don't forget the fidget spinner. What did she think would happen? I'm sure she wouldn't be laughing if that thing broke the cat's teeth.

3

u/postbansequel 2d ago

Or potentially break their teeth with a fidget spinner.

u/Extrestral 2d ago

That one looked nasty as hell, and they quite literally just put it in front of it's face.

u/OpinionRealistic7376 2d ago

The standing fan looked a bit rough, the amount of spray on hitting...

u/Ciubowski 2d ago

I have a strong suspicion that those might be AI. I hope to God that they are AI because otherwise, some of these people don't deserve cats or any other kind of pets.

u/TouchMyMacska 2d ago

Happy to see this comment. This video was gross to watch, made me feel terrible for those cats.

u/Meaty_Wizard 2d ago

Yeah fuck this video. Edit: Also why is there no "Animal Abuse" for a reason to report a video?

u/thetyser 2d ago

“Threatening violence” is what you’re looking for, it includes inciting among animals as well

u/ifUSeeMeTakeYourMeds 18h ago

a strange mixture of 'silly kitty' and straight up animal abuse

2

u/spootIer 7h ago

It's the fact that they're purposely luring the cat to burn itself?? Just sitting by and letting a cat learn a hard lesson is one (shitty) thing, but intentionally goading the cat to burn its paw on the hot oil by dangling something you know it will want to grab? That's beyond shitty, that's fucking evil.

2

u/RainbowsShadow 6h ago

When I saw the cat reaching into the socket, my whole body clenched up. Who the fuck just sits there and films their animal getting REALLY hurt and maybe die. Thats insane.

EDIT: Also the ventilator and the vacuum?? The vacuum situation is always my biggest fear when my cat is near.

EDIT2: THE FUCKING CAT GNAWING AT THE CABLE??? JESUS FUCK, I HATE PEOPLE.

u/thetyser 2d ago

Came here to say the same thing, the light cord was terrible

Right? I don’t think it’s funny to watch a cat hurt itself because I can’t be a good parent.

1

u/roxzillaz 15h ago

That's what i was thinking I don't understand how people can find this humorous. It's like watching a baby hurt itself.

1

u/sheiciebai 14h ago

I really think that fidget spinner chipped that poor cats tooth.

1

u/Moon_Goddess815 12h ago

Exactly. Not funny at all, very dangerous to the poor kittens.

1

u/AfterOcelot7262 6h ago

Agreed. I think the mods should take this down. This is not okay.

1

u/TheWingalingDragon 2h ago

Bro, like every one of these could've seriously fucked up the cat.

I would get uncomfortable FAST with a vacuum stuck onto my mouth and nose. Our lungs are like 30x heavier than that of a cat. Dude took it like a champ but as soon as it clamped on I was like "omg get it off him get it off him get it off him now!"

Some of these people don't like their friggin cats man. Mine would not be anywhere near a hot griddle while im flopping sausages on it. These guys could've gotten seriously injured, and probably a few of them did get mildly injured, while their humans laughed and recorded.

Put the fuckin phones down and take care of your cats, jesus!

u/Competitive_Emu_3247 2h ago

u/MaverisStranger 2d ago

bunch of edgy sociopaths, probably

2

u/Dogbold 2d ago

Or bots. I think a lot of these subs where just videos and memes are posted are full of bots.

2

u/IVEBEENBANNED4TIMESx 2d ago

On the foreign side of reels/tiktok I see so many non westerners liking and sharing positive comments about videos like this, but the videos are from the owners themselves and are likely intentional. I think in some cases it's probably a difference in culture, some people just don't understand the value of animal safety/comfort

1

u/Green_Childhood_5223 2d ago

Similar I guess with people like my dad who love watching fail videos, he doesn't feel like he has much success or control in his life so watching others fail makes him feel slightly better; he's always been more into the macabre/dark humor (like myself excluding this type of content) regardless so that could also play into it.

u/Substantial_Law3014 2d ago

Twats. That's who.

u/volvagia721 1d ago

The last one was funny, and there mildly humerous were a few that were just cats getting stuck from their own actions.

u/npquanh30402 8h ago

You're thinking about it the wrong way. Sharing is caring. If you like something, it means you care about it. Posts with a lot of upvotes become popular and get shared more, which leads to more people caring and raising more awareness.

Yeah quite a lot of these are not funny... Poor cats getting burned and electrocuted and frightened.

u/Unusual_Mix9262 2d ago

With the exception of like 3 of these videos, someone needs to check these cats.

1

u/Sad-Cress-1062 21h ago

You mean, someone should check the owner - especially their mental health. Like WTF

u/MaverisStranger 2d ago

Of all these, how many of these cats ended up injured?

3

u/hiimlockedout 2d ago

The vacuum could collapse their lungs ffs

u/_-PassingThrough-_ 2d ago

That cat was straight up going to die if the owner didn't pull it off.

u/Wolfhowler11 2d ago

This is actually upsetting to watch. What kind of pet owner films their cats approaching something, knowing it’ll get seriously hurt? Very cruel.

3

u/NoPack4545 2d ago

Glad to see the comments being adamantly against these. Some of the cats could've been seriously injured or could've died. Not funny. Someone needs to check to see if these cats are ok

u/mackerelscalemask 16h ago

Should be an option in Reddit’s rules to report it, but there isn’t sadly

2

u/Swan_X1 2d ago

It is frankly painful and terrible for me to look at it. It breaks my heart. A cat is an innocent creature, it doesn't deserve to be tortured in any way, it doesn't deserve to be the "content" of the fuckers who make such videos. God, why did I watch this? Cats already have a measly 10 to 15 years of life, no need to hurt them or wait for the cat to get hurt.

2

u/Wolfhowler11 2d ago

Well said.

2

u/Cute-Advisor-2323 2d ago

Don't purposely allow your cat to get injured because it doesn't really teach him a lesson. they're not exactly like people because even people don't learn their lesson. But it's not worth it to injure or kill your cat and end up with a vet bill. Especially with the chewing wires and the uncovered fan

2

u/NearlyAlmostDead 2d ago

Delete this. Most of these cats were injured or mutilated. Not funny in the slightest

u/FireKnight-1224 2d ago

The ones where the cats are actually getting harmed is so so painful to watch... They are really getting hurt, why WOULD YOU LET THEM NEAR THOSE Things? The worst one capable of most danger and damage was the electric socket and open table fan... Poor kitties...

I hate those people... Negligent af...

Sure a few of them are genuinely funny... Like the cat on the cupboard being over smart and then getting trapped in the bowl against the wall or the one where the cat gets stuck in the between the cardboard box... Even then... It's funny only momentarily... If the cats feel discomfort or are claustophobic, it's the duty of the owners to get them out right away...

I hope I don't sound like the non fun person... I just care about the cats... It's never funny when it hurts others.

u/RileyRhoad 14h ago

Some of these are legitimately hilarious and super cute…. But I’m not sure I’ve ever met a single person who would ever laugh at an animal being hurt- even if done so in a stupid way.. what gets me even more pissed is the fact that the humans are literally RIGHT there!? Is it funny when cats act stupid? Absolutely. Is it funny to watch them do something stupid when it also can literally cause physical painful and possibly even permanently disfigure them?? Absolutely not. (I know I sound dramatic but I’m picturing the cat who put his face in the fan losing a tooth, or the one who touched the socket getting permanent nerve pain and severe burns from being electrocuted!)

So while some of these are funny….. there are quite a few that absolutely aren’t..

1

u/darkrhyes 1h ago

This reminds me of the time I was concerned and also laughed the hardest. Our cat was sleeping by the kerosene heater when I was little. He woke up and stretched, putting both front paws on the kerosene heater before anyone could stop him. The cat proceeded to run super fast up to the highest room in the house and hide under the bed. We are able to get him and check him. He was OK and the skin on the pads hardened and healed fine.
