Cat Exercise Program

A cat who doesn’t want to exercise needs a little incentive. Dangling a carrot in front of a mule might work, but a cat wants cat food. This one has to negotiate a treadmill to get to it! Notice at one point, the cat seems to try to “fool” the treadmill, but it doesn’t work. I doubt he’s working off all that many calories, but it’s a way to get a cat used to a treadmill. A squirrel in the backyard is a better incentive to exercise, but that’s not always an available option -and it can be bad for the squirrel. (via Daily Picks and Flicks)
