Drive By Catting

cat

It was determined this weekend, after thoughtful consideration, that a new form of urban warfare could be easily enacted with simple laser pointers. As we all know cats, or Felis silvestris catus,  find laser pointers completely fascinating and can’t pass up the chance to chase them and try to attack them. Of course they never catch them because it’s just light, but cats don’t understand that scientific part of it.

So the thinking is that you drive down the street with a laser pointer directed at the parallel sidewalk for several blocks. Any cats in the area will be drawn to the beam and chase it instinctually. After about 6 blocks you’ll most likely have around 35 cats chasing the laser (45 if you are in the neighborhood of a crazy cat lady) and by this point they will be pissed. This is when you stop driving and aim the laser onto the chest or face of your target. The cats will then pounce onto this person trying to get the laser, and thus rip him/her to shreds. A side benefit is that once your disengage the laser the cats give up and run away leaving no evidence. Unless of course someone is watching, in which case you can just repeat the above targeting them at the end.

    Thanks for the belly-laugh!

  5. Note: anecdotal evidence suggests that using an open top vehicle (AKA “convertible”) improves targeting and minimizes beam interruption. More empirical data is necessary however to confirm this hypothesis.

    Dude, my sister’s boyfriend does this to me with their kitten.

    Has anyone else noticed the amazing noise cats make when they spot the red dot of the laser pointer?

  8. My cats hear the jingle of the key ring on the laser pointer and get excited. Sadly, I think they know its not “real,” but have fun nontheless.
