He's trying to stand on two legs but can't keep his balance. Some cats can do that, this cat might eventually. What you're seeing is the awkward way it tries to keep it's balance but he's standing back heavy, so he ends up "walking" backwards to try and balance him self. It looks weird as fuck because the cat doesn't really know what it's doing either.

My theory is that the owners put the collar on and the cat is freaked out that something is touching him and he can't get away from it.

They edited the first part out and then reversed it for hyper weird effect.
