Cats stalking a squirrel

This is a short video of Zeus and Aphrodite (two Bengal cats) trying to get the squirrel who knows that he is safe on the other side of the glass. Zeus (who fell off) is fine, he's pretty clumsy and landed on a cardboard box.

Sad story... that's probably the main reason I don't have a pet... I'd hate to get attached to something so special as a pet and loose it. Like they say, your dog is always happy to see you, now matter how long you've been gone or how you feel when you get home. Who said "I'd like to be the person my dog thinks I am"?

Duke, I'm sorry that you feel this way. I know I may have pushed the envolope a bit when I posted this but, I looked at the dogs life and not the person he was helping out.
