The cat in this video has obviously obtained ultimate understanding of Life, the Universe and Everything. It has been given comprehension of the Answer, **plus** the Question, **plus** how everything comes together.

Enjoy ^.^

Good for a quick chuckle. Though it only needed to be like 30 secs. After that, the joke is overplayed.

I sat through it all, expecting the cat to reappear for the denouement. Disappointing.

It should’ve ended with the cat taking a nap. 😃 But his expression at the beginning was priceless!

Really should’ve ended with the cat lifting its back leg and licking its butt.

I liked it. The cat’s expression alone when the flower was placed on it’s head was pretty awesome!
