[@RiversideM]

@@user-sk8th1ou3m Serious question, have you ever owned a cat? I can tell you, that cat is not stressed at all being in or near water. You can condition cats to not hate water by bathing them regularly when young for example. My cat sometimes jumps on the counter when the tap is running and takes a little shower by himself (though diving and swimming is still a nono). From a lifelong cat owner's experience, I would say that cat doesn't mind water and it's definitely not terrified. I personally would put a lifejacket on it and the leash kinda scared me at first because it might get tangled up while swimming, but from what I can see they're in very calm water and are always very close to it so I don't really see the cat in danger.

[@minachoi1042]

mmm not really. I'm assuming you don't know much about cats and are relying on what cartoons and stereotype of cats tell you. Because many cats love water. They could naturally like it from the beginning or often, it has to do with conditioning them when they're young kittens so they associate water with good, positive feelings. He probably had a very good owner before who did this or he grew up on the streets and learned to not be afraid by himself as he wouldn' always have a safe place to hide from rain and what not. What makes him unique is that he enjoys surfing and isn't scared by all the loud sounds and waves hitting him.

This is too cuteeeee. It is rare to see a cat who loves water.

[@shen-long9082]

My puma, Dr. Evil, loves water & pets but no grabbing his tail cuz he hates that. Oohhh & hugs & mice are his fav!!! Then he loves kisses from pretty girls only. If you rub his belly he'll love it & lick ur hands but only for a few seconds then he'll bite u after that.

[@caheoramnang735]

He doesnt like water, he trust his owner and dive right in to it

At the very end it's precious how kitty looks up lovingly at it's owner on the surfboard.

I love the intensity in his eyes while he's on the board.

[@Zeetana1]

You mean the scared, focused look? Of course, he is trying yo get the hell out of there.

[@ExceptionalMussy]

@@Zeetana1 he’s not scared, he’s just taking in a lot of incoming light from the sun. The pupils of cats constrict and dilate in reaction to environmental stimuli. Here, being at the beach, and exposed to high amounts of sunlight caused the cats eyes to constrict in order to preserve and protect the eye. The counter mechanism would be dilation where cats lets the most amount of light into the eye.

[@aarondavis8943]

@@Zeetana1 He doesn't look scared to me. More like he's wondering if he's meant to be doing this.

[@Kepl_]

@@Zeetana1 also if he wanted to get the heck out of there than the cat would have just jumped off, even without the leash or not. BUT that isnt the type of cat to do that which was showed in the video obviously

[@lsophial]

That is because he is being terrorized! Look at the cat's ears, it is his voice,it tells us, I am terrified for my life! Look how the poor cat tries to protect itself from the idiots!

they're definitely a perfect match. cat and humans both very lucky to find each other.

You gotta miss it when he still got that strength when that cat become old and cannot even groom anymore

[@helenabrill9049]

So rare that a cat enjoys being in the water . May be because he loves his mom's and dad's company and wants to share moments together. ❤

[@2TMarie]

I appreciate how you explained the steps you took to get him there. Great Cat parents 😊🐈

[@Aurisda]

I had a cat who liked hiking and going on bike rides. One day when he was 17, he chased a bird into the river. So I thought maybe he might like kayaking. He picked up kayaking. Just like this cat, he’d swim, get back in the boat, dry out in the sun. Good times.

[@harlanseago4876]

[@sgshaday]

@Sunfeld Jiramhir I do agree. The video is super cool tho :) But yeah I agree. I have seen some friends with their cats treat them like children and it has even led to unnecessary fighting for the silliest of things.

[@ganymeade5151]

@Sunfeld Jiramhir Pets are definitely children and family members.

[@ganymeade5151]

@@sgshaday I have also seen pets make relationships much better. Don't people also fight about children? Apparently, you are not aware of parents fighting over how children are raised; and vicious court battles over child custody case. If this cat were treated as a cat and not as a human, he could not have learned to surf. Respect animals and treat them as equals. Animals are far superior to humans in many ways.
