CIA using cats as spies?
well isn't this a weird episode of Phineas and Ferb

[AverytheCubanAmerican]

Who needs cats when there are plenty of flying spy cameras they call “pigeons”

[SciFactsYT]

Random fact: In Korea, there is a breed of dog called a Sapsali which was originally thought to banish ghosts and evil spirits.

This is a lie. We have never been used... We use humans.

[SupremeLeaderKimJong-un]

This is a plot twist of the Cats musical

[catiecho]

now i know where my cats go during the day

[beachedkale]

My cat is listening to me watching this and staring at me like they know

[farismallah]

I don’t trust thespi her name is *the*-*spi(spy)*

[kaileyeliza]

I have two cats, one of them can give hugs, high fives, shake your hand, and sit.

All the other one has learned how to do is ignore everyone.

[noalear]

It sounds like there's three people talking.

Check out the channel "Jun's Kitchen" and associated channels.
He has trained two of his cat's to sit politely while they watch him cook. He has trained them to shake hands before being fed. Jun even takes one (Haku) to ride nicely in a basket when he rides his bicycle.

In Australia, there was this weird historical war between humans vs emus. It's called The Emu War and it happened in 1932 where the Australian residents in Western Australia were concerned about the mass population of emus. They tried to get rid of them, even went as far as bringing the military with machine guns to shoot them down. In the end, the emus prevailed and won. It was considered a nuisance wildlife management operation but to me I just find it funny that even existed in Australian history

Yes. My husband and I taught my cat Peanut to use a human toilet. He didn’t learn how to flush but he would meow for us to come in and flush it. He also learned how to do high fives. We also taught him the playing the meow mix song meant time to eat. Every time he heard it he would run to the food bowl. I miss him :( he passed away due to a murmur. It caused fluid to go in his lungs and he couldn’t breath. We made the decision to put him down since he was suffering.

[seilaclymer]

It’s not spy kids anymore, it’s now spy cats😂

[rasnac]

This story turned out to be such a bummer :(

[Aplixon]

the girl sounds like an english person trying to do an american accent or if english accent and the american accent had a baby because some words she pronounces like shes english

[waleedksa]

Five years and 10M £ was run over by a taxi.

Just imagine what happened to the unknowing taxi driver and the possibility for him to be a spy against US.

[lolayost]

put a finger down if you fell asleep and woke up to this video... seriously dude how did I get from Kurtis Conner to this

[jetpl]

this should have been done by shane and ryan... im just disappointed

[geethakasibhatla]

Bruh why does Thespi's accent sound American who keeps on remembering half-way through a sentence that she's pretending to be British? Am I going crazy?
