Acrobatic kitten helps out with the dirty laundry in cute clip [video]
Metro [UK] ^ | Thursday 17 Jan 2013

Doing the laundry is never the most fun task but having a little help does make the mundane a little easier to bear.

Like cleaning the bathroom and mowing the lawn, sorting out dirty washing can be a boring job for unwilling hands.

It doesn’t seem to be a troublesome chore for this cute kitten however who appears more than willing to help out his owner.

Leaping up from inside the laundry basket, the acrobatic feline grabs whatever is thrown its way in this adorable clip.

Smelly socks, t-shirts or even grubby underpants don’t appear to faze the moggy who takes it all in his stride.

The clip has racked up more than 30,000 hits on video-sharing website YouTube in just a matter of days and received thousands of likes.

‘Such an acrobatic beautiful kitty :-)’ wrote one impressed user.

The kitten is not the first feline internet star, last year a video of a cat sitting on a wall like a human became a hit online.

One of mine has learned how to open the medicine cabinet. Luckily, all he’s interested in are foam earplugs. (I don’t get it either.)

I often wondered why I got up so early, then I realized they demand to be fed at 5:00 AM. Right now they’re sleeping off breakfast.

I’d never have my cat declawed even if I have been tempted many times.
When she was a small kitten she’d ambush me and climb my leg like a tree – leaving a blood trail. I broke her of it by snapping her ears. I tried to break her of clawing furniture, even using a squirt gun. She thought it was a game, dodging the water stream. When she claws me it’s when I sleep.
She just mean at times but she’s so sweet when she wants to be.

This is part of the charm of cats. As they say, “Dogs have masters, cats have staff.” My 11 lb. Maine Coon is, at this moment, sitting on my keyboard tray. She is ticked off because for 15 seconds, I have been typing instead of petting her. She is making mild attempts to nip my knuckles into submission, but she knows that if she were to get more aggressive about demanding attention, she would be banished to the floor (oh the horror, to be 24 whole inches away from me!). I laugh at the remembrance of one early book written about the then-unknown Maine Coon. It stated that they are not lap cats. Ha! The two I’ve owned could have been named Velcro Cats. I am never out of their sight.

She is about 7 now, still running things.

We found her in a ditch just before those pictures were taken

I am so glad that you found her and saved her! One of my cats is a rescue also. She and her 4 brothers were found at 1 week of age blindly trying to suck moisture out of the earth in someone's yard. Covered with fleas and ticks. Mom had apparently been run over or something like that, as cats are normally great and devoted moms. Fortunately, a kind person found them just in time and gave them over to an experienced orphan kitten raiser. Each of the woman's 5 teenage kids kept a kitten in their pocket, feeding it every 2 hours. They pulled 3 of the 5 through, including my stunning and brilliant tortie and white, Kefira.

My cat went through a phase where he liked Q-Tips.

Kitteh’s got some serious vertical leap going...

Here’s a cute one I saw the other day:

YAY For kittehs.

I’m loving looking at the beautiful kitties that have found forever homes. It’s wonderful.

Re:Declawing- my first cat I ever shared my life with came from the shelter declawed. I really never thought about it , since her back two paws were left intact.

When she died I adopted my present cat who is not declawed. One day I went to my mother’s house for lunch and she was upset to see scratches on my hands from kitty. Mom suggested I get the cat declawed. My vet was very sweet about it, sat me down and for about 15 minutes explained the procedure in GRAPHIC detail and drawings, and after that there was no way I would let that fur ball get it. Or any fuzz balls I might have in the future.

Our Stella secretly climbed into the clothes dryer once and actually did a few rotations before hubby realized something was wrong with the thumping noises coming from it. Luckily, he went to check and opened the door. Stella hurriedly, but wobbly, carefully exited out of the dryer. She still enjoys burrowing under the warm laundry when I toss it on the bed to begin folding. They're something, alright!
