It’s cute, but there’s no Roomba in that link.

There is, but it’s after the cat that takes off its collar.  
How did the kittens get on the Roomba, anyway? I felt sorry for them, with the Roomba knocking into them and banging them around.

Classic. The Roomba almost seems to go into cat-abatement mode, rapidly dislodging two kitties in quick succession, then scraping and bashing the counter kicks as if trying to get the remaining two to loosen their grips.
