My Cat Is Watching HDTV!
And she isn't alone. Many High-Definition TV owners report that their pets are
having trouble distinguishing the realistic picture from reality itself.

Washington, D.C. (January 14, 2006) -- The other night, I was thinking of
watching a movie on HBO, but my female housemate wouldn't let me. She was
absorbed in a PBS documentary about birds, which was broadcast in
High-Definition TV.

My female housemate is named Snoopy. She's a five-year-old black domestic cat.

Yes, my cat watches High-Definition TV.

In fact, she will watch for 20 minutes at a time, particularly if the show
features birds, fish or animals. If she sees a bird flying on a high-def
channel, she will crouch down in the attacker stance as if the winged creature
was right in front of her.

The high-def picture is so clear and life-like that Snoopy apparently thinks
it's real.

I've had a 56" 16:9 analog TV for nearly 10 years. The two cats have
been around longer. One ignores the TV the other acts just as the report
above describes. I think it says more about the cats than about the TV.

I had a cat watch some birds in documentary on PBS HD one time for about
two minutes. I'm sure the 5.1 surround sound didn't hurt for keeping
his attention.

Yeah, some cats have a shorter persistence of vision and don't see a
picture, especially on CDT displays. It's sort of like taking a picture
of the screen with a shutter speed that's too fast.

My dog stared at the bird migration movie like nothing I've ever seen
before, he normally pays little attention to TV. He really hates birds
and didn't move for about 20 minutes and stared at it until it was over,
then tried to look behind the TV to see where the birds went.

When my female cat was a kitten, she loved to watch Space Jam. I think
she liked Micheal Jordan. My dog would not react to animals on SD tv,
but constantly goes after dogs, cats, birds and horses on HDTV.
