In the wild, cats are dangerous predators. On the opposite end of the bravery spectrum, baby housecats are frightened of just about everything. They don’t call them “fraidy cats” for nothing, I suppose. Here are 13 things that scare kittens, and the videos to prove it:
Apples
You never know when apples… will strike!
Bunny Rabbits
Good thing the cat’s afraid, or this would not end well.
Vacuums
Don’t worry, you won’t get sucked inside, little kitten… unless you’ve been bad.
Toy Balls
Careful now. It might be full of poison. Keep your distance.
Tennis Balls
Game – Set – Watch Out!
Fake Cats
“YOU get him,” thinks the cat.
Real Cats
According to the uploader, the kitten is scared of the cat in the background. Who can blame her?
Their Own Reflection
The two cats are strategically well-matched.
Video Cameras
Wait for it…
Being On Television
Or maybe it’s just being on Jonathan Ross’ show. Science has yet to determine the answer.
Sudden Touches
Calling this kitten “jumpy” would be an understatement.
Falling
Hold on, kitten! Hold on!!!
Everything
To be fair, I also do this.
