  1. Welshcake says:

    I think the best one was ‘cat with a rack’. A new category perhaps…?

  2. Edward says:

    I could honestly watch cats bat at things all day. Is that odd?

  3. Wendy says:

    INCREDIBLY clever!

  4. Theo says:

    b’AAAAAAHAHHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA HA HA HA HA HAAAA [hiccup!] AHahahahaahaaaa…

  5. Maggie says:

    amusing, not amazing. The boobies were funny.

  6. Theo says:

    Also, “Rys K.” is a fanTAStic screen name.

  7. Nekussa says:

    A ha ha!! I think it’s amazing that the cat put up with as much of that as he did instead of batting at every dangling temptation. ;)

  8. Beth E. says:

    Awesome!! Highly amusing. Well filmed, great editing. I give it a 10. Academy Award material for sure.

  9. Marly says:

    And it has a MOO Egg in the end!! i dind’t want to search for the moo eggs and here there is one just dropping on my lap. now i have to search the other 5…

  10. Marianne says:

    Wonderful! I love it.

  11. Melinda says:

    Really funny and slightly cheesy with the “I’m in the mood for love” soundtrack, I really liked it, and glad the kitty got some head scritchies for his participation!

  12. Theresa says:

    “Those Mouse ears are bad enough– but that TinTin hair– Up with that I shall not put!”

  13. eh….
    i think your all mercy lol’ing like when a retarded child ties his shoes

  14. Theo says:

    Strong in The Farce is our Theresa.

  15. Seven Paws says:

    Poor Hugo! He has that sort of tolerant but put-upon face I frequently get from my own tabby boy. But I admit I was LOL watching this. Good thing no one else is in the office yet!

  16. DebbieH says:

    This cracked me up! Some people get such interesting ideas!!

  17. MandaBain says:

    Awe.Some.
    Paw.Some.
    OMGCATBOOBIES!!!11!

  18. tesstricks says:

    Certified grade A awesome.

  19. Beth says:

    Hilarious. Well done.

  20. Haha, great video, love it…

  21. ThreeCatNight says:

    The Thousand Faces of Dr. Meow

  22. charliewabba says:

    OH, I Luuuuuuuuuuurve the Woody Allen face.
    Hugo is the Zelig cat!

    [Damn, I was kinda hoping nobody would notice that part... - Ed.]

  23. Micheller says:

    I laughed out loud. Cute!

  24. Redzilla says:

    The pacing on this is perfect. Just at the moment I was thinking, “What a patient kitty,” Hugo decided he didn’t like the mouse ears.

    Awesome! I should’ve watched this two hours ago and improved my whole morning.

  25. Darsa says:

    I snorted while laughing at this one, in the office no less. Good thing boss-lady was on the phone at the time! ;)

  26. cozytailmom says:

    Oh, he was not down with the Tin Tin hair. :>
    Funny

  27. Katrina says:

    Not funny. Not clever. Not entertaining. Annoying. Sad.

  28. diz says:

    Katrina is kidding right?

  29. Hon Glad says:

    Who needs CGI, cheapo production values rule.

  30. Jen says:

    I’m sorry, but that was just plain stupid.

  31. debg says:

    I laughed so hard, I disturbed the cat sitting on my lap. She hates it when I go to cuteoverload! Cats with racks forever.

  32. Lizzy says:

    HAhahahaha! *shriek* *gasp* Ahahahahaaaaa! Heheeheeeee! *gasp* *snort* Haaaaaaaaaaaaahahahaheheheahahahohohaha!!

    Ow, stoppit, cramp, it hurts! Can’t stop laughing! Hahahahaaa!!

    “Mickey!? DO NOT WANT!”

  33. Katrina says:

    No kidding.I have a funny bone, but this didn’t get close. It just wasn’t cute.
    Just sad and well, annoyingly sad actually. I’m glad you enjoyed it, though.

  34. Annie says:

    Sorry you didn’t get as big a kick out of this Katrina.. but I have cats Currently three and OMG LMAO funny. Okay and the rack on a cat was definatly the best thing and was anyone else thinking Monte Python?

  35. Theo says:

    Annie — you speak as if it’s possible NOT to be thinking about Monty Python.

  36. tania says:

    OMG! my brother made this movie and I am freaking out that it made it to my mecca of cuteness- cuteoverload! To me, this is like the holy grail- yay hugo!!!
    :)

  37. Theo says:

    “It just wasn’t cute. Just sad…”

    Please understand, this only makes it *funnier* for me. [g'SNERK]

  38. Shannon says:

    That ended funnier than it started. For some reason I liked the appearance of the human’s hand to show some loving. (begging?)

  39. Theo says:

    Shannon — exactly. This clip might’ve been a “cheapie” (in the shoestring-budget, independent-film sense) but it was well paced & edited. It actually has a story arc, and without words, fer crysakes.

  40. Theo says:

    Oh, and the acting? …flawless.

    ;)

  41. Catsquatch says:

    SOMEONE has WAY too much TIME on their HANDS here pipples….

    ;D

  42. Theo says:

    like, oh, say for instance, *US*, CatSquatch?

    :P

  43. metz says:

    Hugo “zzzzz-wth? Dude. You are weird.”
    later, “DUuuude! Yer startin to annoy me.”
    moar later, “Will U stop? Gimme dat!”
    later still, “Sigh, Whatev.”
    Still ROFL and can’t stop watchin.

  44. Tia says:

    Finest kind. Love it.

  45. kestrien says:

    This spread around my office like wildfire this morning – as more and more people were drawn to the gasps and snerks of uncontrollable laughter. This made my day – the patient, beautiful kitty, the equally patient, loving person!

  46. jen says:

    omg someone has waaaay too much time on their hands! lol. perfection, i must say – what a great production. adorables. i love the composition and lounge music, and letting the patient kitteh play with the cards.

    Luv the cheesiness.

  47. Everything was going good until the kitty started getting playful. Shame on him!

  48. sassi says:

    That was the dumbest video I have seen! A total waste of everyone’s time, including the cat.

  49. daquack says:

    wihihihi .. so funny :] \o/

  50. Clare says:

    BAHAHAHAHA. My favourite bit was the ‘you’ve GOT to be kidding’ look when the boobies come down. :D

    I feel kind of sorry for people who aren’t childish enough to find this funny…

  51. Theo says:

    Now THERE’S a back-handed compliment, if I’ve ever heard one.

    ;)

  52. Ponygirl says:

    Greatest video clip EVAR!

  53. claudia says:

    In addition to the coolest, most hip kitteh around, the music is what cracked me up :D

  54. caroline says:

    Too funny! I loved the background music!

  55. TW says:

    Sounds like sassi is a cat also. Everything NOT having to do with eating and sleeping is a waste of time to a cat. Not being a cat myself, I liked it.

  56. Theo says:

    OMG! Cat-like typing detected!!

  57. LisaL says:

    Hahahahahaha… that was brilliant! I loved the cat bewbs :P

  58. fish eye no miko says:

    Edward said: “I could honestly watch cats bat at things all day. Is that odd?”

    No. In fact, there should be a video-only cat-egory–”cats ‘n bats”… hmmm… “Batting cats”? ^_^

  59. carmini says:

    OOOOH my goshhh! this was SOOOO cute and funny! the mickey mouse ears part was the bessst!! ahahha… what a nice kitty ^__^

  60. darkshines says:

    Absolutely loved the elevator music version of “I’m In the Mood For Love”!

  61. chanpon says:

    LOL!! Another example of the world’s most patient cat. Really, who por what are we going to see next irritating some hapless kitty?

  62. homer mariner says:

    Oh my god…. WOW. I laughed so hard at this. I’m so happy to see it in Cats’n'Racks. If it hadn’t been posted there… well, that would just be a tragedy of epic proportions.

  63. onion says:

    LOL too silly! love it 8D 8D

  64. Tamara says:

    Wonderfully weird! How do you get an idea to do that? Hmmmm, i think i’ll suspend various pic’s of eyes, moufs and bewbs in front of my cat, video tape it, and set it to some weird Ukranian version of James Bond music. Weirdness is the spice of life.

  65. RidBaxter says:

    Hah, that was brilliant!

  66. Smidge says:

    I see the cat is not a Tintin fan… >.>; *Is a rabid Tintin fangirl*

    [I bet kitty associates the hair with that Snowy dog... - Ed.]

  67. NotVerySubtle says:

    *snicker* That was priceless! Fun in the classic ‘what the heck were they thinking’ way, as well as fun in the ‘watching how much of this the cat will put up with’ way.

    I love the internet.

  68. Gail says:

    @Onion: I mis-read your “8D 8D” as “8 Letter D” and I thought you meant 8D as in bra size, which struck me as perfect for the boobs disguise!!!

    Was anyone else reminded at the beginning of the theme to that old “Clutch Cargo (with his friends Spinner and Paddlefoot)” cartoon? Or is that strictly a Chicago thing??

  69. berthaslave says:

    Theo, I’m with you….the thought of someone watching this and NOT being amused even makes it funnier!!!

    “Hugo” is the very definition of non-plussed. Excellent performance skills! Super-duper neutrality!

  70. chet's momma says:

    those were clive owen eyes in first shot!
    MEEEEEEEE-OOOOOOOOOOOWWW!
    who said bewbs? ROFLMAO!!!!

  71. Theresa says:

    Theo, my all-time favorite use of Yoda-syntax was in movie critic Anthony Lane’s review of Revenge of the Sith: “Break me a f***ing give.”

  72. DaytimeDeb says:

    Loved his look at :51 when, after much trying, mickey finally landed on his head. He was looking out at us as if to say, “somebody call KPS (kitty protective services)!”

  73. ashagato says:

    brilliant! so stylishly done, love the music!

  74. muhj says:

    …well, obvy. Yez, teh myoozic eez GUUUUUUUUUUD!

  75. Nienna says:

    lol! Omg, at 0:54, that cat is SO UTTERLY DISAPPROVING! It’s amazing, I laughed out louded.

  76. AuntieMame says:

    I thought I was on Fark for a moment.

    BOOBIES!!1!

    Seriously, I guffawed. Out loud.

  77. AuntieMame says:

    And fact that they were dangling the eyes and mouths (and BOOBIES!!1!) from two little strings made it even more hilarious!

  78. NO SERIOUSLY, OMG!!

    This cat is identical to my cat!! THIS IS RIDICULOUSLY CRAZY!

  79. Kar says:

    “Shoestring budget.” So to speak.

  80. bookmonstercats says:

    Great. Love the soundtrack. Hugo objected to the Mickey Mouse ears – dare I say I agree, MM gives me the creeps?

  81. Gail says:

    @bookmonstercats: I’ve never cared much for the Mouse myself!

  82. Barbarella says:

    That was brilliant. Hugo, what a character! :D

  83. cheesybird says:

    Ahymmm… in de moooooood… for Luuuuuubbbb….

  84. lisa says:

    episode 2 is now live! Yay!

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uf_Rb5uS78s

    [added the "2" there... - Ed.]

  85. cheesybird says:

    OMG! Stormtrooper kitty! And once again with the brilliant music! Jonathan Howells is a FARKING genius!

  86. NotSupposedToBeDoingThisATWork(ButNowI'mHome) says:

    omfg. that totally cracked my s#it up. and it was ridiculously well paced… if only half of what comes out of Hollywood was this good, maybe people would start going back to the theaters…

    back to work, go I must.

  87. Sharon Wilson says:

    I loved it when the kitty started attacking the card!

  88. ilurvemakeup says:

    I love it lol xD

  89. Peep says:

    OK that’s just wrong…love the 50′s themed tunes and look…
    it’s still WRONG tho, I peed my pants a widdle. Oof.

  90. Jonathan Howells says:

    Hey all,

    If you enjoyed Episode 1 of Hugo, Cat of 1000 Faces, here’s Episode 2!

  91. MMc says:

    These are sooo awesome. Love the music. And the Teletubby head…

  92. Ameri says:

    The cat doesn’t like Tintin hair! :O

  93. Subhangi says:

    Hee hee! So silly! All the while he was like “Oh, come off it” and in the end when he sees the boobies he’s like “What the- are you KIDDING ME?!”

    Beautiful kitty, by the way.

  94. Mary says:

    This is, hands down the funniest thing I ever saw. I will share this greatness with the world. When the 3rd episode is released (a Star Wars theme), I can die happy. This filmmaker need to be given an award of GREATNESS. And the cat needs 40 straight minutes of scratches for his AMAZING work.

  95. Rys K. says:

    Hehe, I totally forgot to check back and see if it was posted up! Then again I was sicky lately too, so I couldn’t be online as muchness. Such a good kitty. :3

    The last one was the best for me, always makes me giggle.

  96. I love animals says:

    A couple things made me giggle.

    The kitty is a very good kitty, my kitty would of thought the little thing-a-ma-bobbers were toys.

    I have been enjoying this site!
