  1. SCUBA CAT

  2. Isn’t this cruel? How does the cat equalize its ears since the air pressure in the bubble still exerts pressure on the ears that will cause pain if not a rupture if taken deep enough.

  3. fuck yea SCUBA KAT=WIN!

  4. Not even in Phoenix, AZ will other cats attempt to do this cuteness.

  5. It awful for cat though lol x

  6. no need to at that depth…
    also cat may have larger, straigter Eustachian tubes which would not require manual middle-ear pressures normalization (it would be “automatic”, even some human don’t have to do that… )

  7. it’s in a 6 foot pool. i think the kitty is fine.

  8. Dude…It’s a pool, not the ocean. Besides, wouldn’t the cat have squirmed around and meowed if it actually was in pain? And if it got hurt during the first dive, it would never have let its owner put that suit on it again. You can’t make a cat do something it doesn’t want to.

  9. i think the cat is stoned off of too much oxygen.

  10. This is the dumbest thing I’ve ever seen! And yet I love it… I don’t care how much that cat likes water, this seems to be pushing the limits.

  11. I cant’ tell you how cruel this seems to be to me. I’m sure I’ll be flamed, but I want to water board the cat’s owner.

    Funny? No. Cool? No. This guy needs punched in the throat.

  12. Funny? YES! Cool? YES! Completly fucking awesome? YOU BETTER BELIEVE IT! Cruel? HELL NO!

    If you don’t like it that’s fine, but threats of torture and throat punching are unnecessary, douche.

  13. i would think that if the cat had a bad experience with the scuba diving, she would meow and scratch and generally complain the next time they tried to put her in the suit. considering she doesn’t, i don’t see any reason to think she actually minds it all that much

  14. Oh yea cruelty to anamals is bad but torturing another human being is cool? Did daddy take you in the basement too many times as a child? Well anyone with the name Tater in his handel has issues to deal with from childhood……

  15. Forget the scuba suit, if it was really so traumatizing for the cat, I’d imagine he would want to avoid the pool altogether, but we’re seeing nothing but the opposite of that–this cat likes to swim, people!

    Of course, it’s perfectly common for we as a race tend to have a negative first reaction when faced with something out of the ordinary.

  16. Brilliant deduction, Sherlock… *rolls eyes*

    The point’s been made- the cat is clearly enjoying the water if it swims on the surface and such without any fuss (maybe the cat’s crazy, but they’re all crazy in some, often adorable, ways). I admittedly thought it possibly cruel at first, when I saw the commercials recently, but also looked into it and relaxed, and found the story very cute.

  17. A BREAKTHROUGH!

  18. its called pressure relief. its taking the pressure off its back the fat cat.

  19. cool~

  20. Apparently the cat absolutely loves it. Also it’s a treatment for it’s joint problems. I guess you don’t really know what anyone else is thinking (human or animal) Unless you are them. It’s pretty foolish to think otherwise!

  21. cool dog

  22. Lol i feel sorry for the kitty

  23. I’LL GET YOU YET CAPTAIN PLANET

  24. BRING ME PETER PAN!!!!!!

  25. cats only do what they want to do. Presumably this cat was brought up around water so doesn’t fear it and was brought up around dogs so doesn’t fear them. Maybe whenever its owner tested his diving gear in the pool the cat tried to join in or something like that and he thought “Well I can try…” the fact that it looks so chilled out under the water proves that there is no problem from the cat’s point of view. Plus being so big that cat will have arthritis and the water will help with that.
