You know what happens when it snows a whole bunch and people have cats? Yes. They throw them in the snow. A trawl of YouTube helps us identify the people we should locate and go to their houses and forcibly remove their cats, who are all being thrown in the snow because, I dunno, there were no children to lock in the basement or whatever. Update: Interesting! Some people are already removing their cat-tossing videos that were posted here.
And for the win, these cats are all, screw you, I love it out here, I'm staying.

Luckily for cats, I am allergic to cats.

That's a lot of people who will be killed in their sleep and eaten by cats.
To be fair, cats are going to do this anyway.
Exactly. Your cat has been plotting your demise since the day you brought it home. Why not chuck it in the snow once a year and have a little fun?
But there WERE children to lock in basements!

(God, I'm so depressing I don't know why the rest of you even talk to me).
Oh, jesus.
GOD THERE WAS ANOTHER ONE?
In Buffalo - too close for comfort!
Oh jeebus, I hadn't seen the one from this morning yet that you posted!
*(head in hands)
These are much funnier than the baby in pool heartache.
Oh my God do it to Cat!!! And then do it to Balk!! And then see which one can dig out faster!!!!
Will Balk will always come back just like a cat?
As long as you hide his cigarettes.
But would Balk ever land on his feet?
Pretty disappointed that the Belle & Sebastian reference did not make it to the profesh blog :(
I'll have to show these to my cats when they return from the Bahamas.
Are your cats organizing a GOP strategy meeting or something?
I wonder if cats will be as shocked and surprised as I was with each successive video. "OMG, They are not going to throw that cat in the snow...".
Cats are, universally, Republicans.
Youtube: Lowering the common denominator since 2005.
Simply providing a platform for that which was latent.
Oh, my cat used to love to go out and check out the snow every winter for a few minutes, tromping around, sinking deeper and deeper with her tail sticking up like R2-D2's antenna poking out of the swamp on Degobah. She was quite a cat.
That last cat only has one eye so his badass self is all pffft whatever loser, I'm going to check if my stash of dynamite under the house is still dry.
That is not far from reality:

I'm definitely not a cat person, but that second-to-last one was...making a cat snow angel or something? Amazing.
That's Skeeter. He is an amazing cat. Amazingly dumb. But he is cute.
They are related to snow leopards in some way, so this must be humane.
Clearly y'all have never had cats in the country. In my experience, cats love the snow. Much like dogs, they can't get enough of it.
Why are all the tossers big dumb white guys?
What makes them go, why tossing a cat in the snow would a fine idea?
Haha, brilliant. Finally, a use for cats!
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger.
These cats should do Super Squats.
Who would have thought so many people have broken microwave ovens.
and no firecrackers.
Clearly the infrastructure stimulus monies needs to be re-routed to replenish our dwindling stocks of burlap sacks and bridges.
Sorry, but this upsets me. They might as well take a foppish dandy and toss him in the middle of a sports bar and ask him to get out. Same expression, same exasperation.
Can't remember the last time I ran into a foppish dandy. Not that I miss them...t'was but a reflection.
