Everyone knows that animals can do amazing things. Dogs can save lives, sniff out bombs, and find illegal drugs. Birds can deliver wartime messages, mimic speech, and even pry beers open with their beaks. Fish...well, fish don't do much, but they can be pretty tasty so they get a pass. Cats, on the other hand, aren't good for much of anything. Right?
Wrong. Cats may actually be the smartest of all animals, but they've been fooling us for years, pretending to be incapable so we'll let their laziness slide. They're friendly enough that we let them hang around, but they really don't serve much purpose. It's not likely that your cat will maul an intruder or locate you in a collapsed building. When the dust settles, you'll probably find him sitting on a windowsill sleeping. Most cats won't even wear a leash so you can take them to the park to help you pick up dates.
Most of us just assume that they can't be trained. The Cat Man knows better. He's been performing with his well-trained cats for over 25 years. Below, check out a clip of his show.
On a side note, I can't be the only person in the world who thinks that he bears a striking resemblance to Russell Hitchcock, the lead singer of the 80s duo, Air Supply.
