    I hope my cat never learns this. I’m going to have to block this site when I’m not around.

    #8′s comment wins all. Still giggling.

    Damn. I had my cats toilet trained, but didn’t think I could train them to flush.

    Can we replace “Rick Rolled” with “Cat Flushed?”

    love it #8, I can see this as the intro to TMBG’s Bloodmobile (version 1 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tm1yvSiVs9U version 2 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iy4ltrdGoVI which looks like another artist took a crack at animating it).

  • Talia

    I could easily see my cats doing this. I suspect its only a matter of time.

    Was this a TMBG b-side?

  • Kieran O’Neill

    Lol – and I actually used this (successfully) to scare our cat so he would stop drinking from the toilet…

    Cute, if you think cats are fascinated with flushing toilets, you should see a ferret’s reaction – of course they can’t flush it themselves.
