VHS Movie Reviews of Video Catnip: Entertainment for Cats [VHS]

Movie Review: ZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Summary: 1 Stars

Bore me. My cats looked at it once to see what it was and that was the end of that. Waste of money for me, I will sell this at my flea market table for a quarter.

Movie Review: Oh, that a cat's reach should exceed its grasp, or what's a heaven for?
Summary: 4 Stars

When my cats aren't watching it, I watch it instead of reality TV!!
Just kidding, but I would watch this before reality TV. Or poker. Or fashion tips from Al Davis. One reviewer said in the review title "I May Have To Rethink This". I had to rethink where the TV was, since my pals were trying to get inside, atop, & behind the TV cabinet. As for the reviewer who panned this, Dude, you didn't pay full price did you? Bummer. I paid $2 at a thrift store, & would actually go as high as $10. BAD music, but it's better than listening to Britney(yes, I know, anything would be). I put this on, pull a couple of chairs up in front of the tube, start it running, put los gatos on the chairs, & wait for the chattering to start. With this, and the suction cup mount feeder on the front window, my cats are happy guys. Weird, but happy.

Movie Review: Boring!
Summary: 1 Stars

My cat watched about a minute of it, looked at me with a "you got to be kidding" look and walked away.

Movie Review: Could be much better
Summary: 2 Stars

The whole first 10 minutes of this tape has silly slapstick music and old fashioned captions like from a silent movie. It shows birds and animals, but the sound is completely unrelated to the action. Two cats passed through the room on their way elsewhere and did not stop to watch. They didn't even notice it. I was watching it thinking, "Duh, did they not think to put some nature sounds on here? On a video for cats?! How dumb is that?" About 10 minutes in, the soundtrack changes to bird calls and nature sounds, and the cats started watching. "Oh," I said. But what that whole first sequence had been for was never explained. Once the soundtrack changed to one that fit the picture, it got their attention and the cats were totally into it. They stood rapt and mesmerized, sometimes batting at the tv, sometimes trying to go behind it to find the critters they figured were behind the glass. It's got squirrels, birds of all types, and one chipmunk, I think, cavorting to the peaceful sounds of birds and nature. I thought the sound now was very restful and enjoyable. I could meditate to that while the cats have a good time. But a second disappointment quickly follows when you discover the tape is over in about 25 minutes. Then the screen goes blue, and it's worse than if you just left on CNN for them. Dudes, I bought this tape to entertain very bored, attention deficit cats who are often alone all day. 25 minutes of video, 10 of which are accompanied by Benny Hill music, doesn't come anywhere near to doing the job. If it had an endless loop capability, you might get away with it (although I suspect they're smart enough to figure out it's the same thing over and over). But it doesn't even have that. Which makes that first 10 minutes an especially dumb waste of space. It's as if the makers thought the video needed something to occupy bored cat owners too, and birds hopping to the sound of silly slapstick music was it. I still can't figure out what that can possibly be for. A good video for cats would have a copyright warning of 3 seconds and then right into the bird action with exclusively nature sounds throughout. It would be a minimum two hours long, or have a loop capability so that it can go all day. Because they did enjoy the part of it that's clearly for cats, and the picture and sound are good, where they make sense, I have to give this some credit. But because it would have been so easy to make this so much better but they didn't, all around, a 2 is about as good as I can give this.
