Small video of Fred (my cat) doing what comes naturally....

Great to watch in slow-motion...set to half speed or less and play from 13 seconds onwards....you see how they become a spring about to uncoil...then when he arrives at the dragonfly, his back end scrunches up, and his back legs lift off the ground as he decelerates. Top stuff Fred.

Hope you enjoy.

a small fly was slightly hurt during the making of this film (well eaten actually )

Ah yes, the 'tiger in your living room'. Wonderful things. You can see how the animators of old derived their exaggerated squash and stretch concept.

No video here I'm afraid, but on the hunting theme:
