Hi, all! To my mind, no forum worth its salt is complete without a thread devoted to videos of our feline friends doing weird and wonderful things! Here's a couple to start us off!

I love the first vid!

Here's one of my favourites, you've probably seen it before

Of course, if cats are not your "thing", then please feel free to post any amusing furry/feathered/scaly friend related vid!

Mandy

LOL, brilliant, irrie - thanks for posting! I hadn't actually seen that one before!

There can't be many cats who don't mind getting wet like that!

Hi Mandy,

You can add youtube clips really easily if you look at the tool bar of the editor for this icon click on that and paste the youtube url into the box it will be embedded like the one above.

or you can type in [_flash(425,350)]https://www.youtube.com/v/XALVPwkor7U[/_flash] (width,height) youtube or flash file url. You need to remove the '_' form the [_flash and [/_flash I did that so it stays visible in the post.

Thanks - that's really kind of you! I'm afraid I'm not very computer-savvy!

Mandy

You have other strengths so I wouldn't worry about it! If you hang about here maybe we will turn you into a bit of a geek.

Spoiler:

Here's another one! Hooray! I think I managed to do it! Ta ever so for the tip - you learn something new every day!

Nice one, we can take on some basic html and css now then...this is usually the point where everyone runs away.

Thanks for that, but I think I've probably reached the outer limits of my computing ability now, Smoked! However, at least I know who to ask if I've any computing questions in the future!

I've heard of HTML (I even know it stands for hyper-text mark-up language!), but I've never heard of css! Wot is it?!

I had a sort of buddist cat once.

He was a lovely chap, cuddly, purrey.....loved everyone and anything.

He used to save mice.

His best friend for a while was a frog. Every morning he'd take some of his breakfast outside too share with the frog, who was his pal

CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheets and it's bloody amazing.

Think as html as a frame which also has some functionality, but it's very bland and unsightly what do you do? Roll out some nice shiny covers to give the bland frame a bit of style and bling with CSS.

The masters of CSS can do amazing things with it and they keep coming up with new ways to do cool stuff. It's hard to explain how funky it is to people who haven't delved into web design. If I find some good examples that demonstrate its power in an exciting way I will try to open a post and share it.

I don't think it would be very popular here theough.

And this is @ the other quality posts of encouragement and tails of cool karma cats. Picked me up that did thanks folks.
