Cats are lovable creatures because they’re so fluffy and cute. That’s what makes the above video so amusing in that a man named Chris Greenough decided to use his cat like a machine gun.

Chris picks up his cat, cocks its legs, and then proceeds to aim the cat’s head and make firing sound effects while shaking the cat as if recoiling from all the firepower coming out of the gun. Apparently the cat in this video is used to its owner grabbing and shaking it so it takes this activity in stride, which shows that cats are able to cope with anything with enough catnip and treats.
