Funny Cats Inadvertently Swatting Unknown Objects Towards Themselves And Then Freaking The Heck Out (12 Videos)

If there's one thing that cats are known for, it's their excessive curiosity. Cats are curious about everything. Literally everything (except the expensive toys you buy them- because cats suck like that). And while cats' curiosity is also why they're as smart as they are and as daring as they are, it's also… not always good for them. Being overly curious means that cats… can have some really dumb moments. Even the smartest of cats has accidentally run into the wall at least 2.3 times in their life while running after some invisible ghost.

Cats get themselves into trouble all the time because they're so dang curious about life. And although, the cats might not be the happiest when that happen, we, their humans, who are luckily privy to those ridiculous moments, get to laugh our butts off. More than anything, our favorite dumb cat moments are when they paw at something - gently tapping it because they're hesitant - and then that thing catches on their paw and comes flying at them, and they fly right with it. So, we've complied a bunch of these moments right here for your enjoyment.

The persistence is what we love about this one the most. This cat, despite obviously and hilariously being spooked, continues, over and over, to reach for this heckin' toy and touch it. We love it. We can only wish we were as (slightly stupidly) brave as this pawmazing fellow.

Do yourself a favor and pause the video on the very last frame. Not only did this guy do a triple-fly after touching the toy, he also derped the heck out at the very end. The confusion on the face of this poor kitty must be one of the funniest things we have seen in literally forever.
