surprised kitty

Come on!  This is just a lame Surprised Kitty rip off with aerobics music over it!

Want proof?  Here you go.

What do you think?  That people will just watch anything if there's aerobics music over it??

Now stop wasting my time.  I have to go back to watching The King of Queens with aerobics music over it.

I know we've shown the Surprised Kitty clip a lot, but it did give us one of our most quoted Tosh.0 lines of all time: "The only thing better than the cutest kitty in the world is any dog."

Plus I want to reward Stephanie for proving that it's hard for a woman to get out of the kitchen.

Let us know your favorite Tosh.0 video in the comments so we can feature it next week!

While we were on hiatus, Surprised Kitty became a huge viral sensation, pushing towards 17 million views as I type this.

Last night, Daniel wondered aloud, "Is that all it takes to get a million hits?"

He's in!

Grab the embed code from the clip above and spread it all over the blogiverse!  (Now that the guy who coined the term blogoshpere died, I think it's time we moved on.)

One of the most viral videos of the past few weeks: Surprised Kitty.  After spending over a month as a video unknown, the adorable little cat with his surprised paws has blown up to the count of over 11 million views.

Here's the real surprise though: It's all a scam!  Gothamist (my #1 source for cat news) reports "the kitten's surprise-while-being-tickled is a normal postural play response," meaning this kind of move can be common for kittens.

They even go on to quote veterinarian Dr. Peter Soboroff (Wait, is he a doctor or is he a veterinarian, because he certainly can't be both!?) as saying, "That Surprised Kitty is a total jerk, ripping off the work of other kittens and calling it his own.  He's like the Milli Vanilli or Coldplay of kittens.  He's terrible.  It's all B.S.!"

Alright, I totally made that quote up.  But as evidence, Dr. Soboroff did present the video above showing a cat he had taken care of doing the same thing.

Rip-off!
