    "My thumbs are not opposable yet I oppose everything" That is so catish! That is a great video! Thanks for sharing.

    I'm french and had a hard time understanding without the subtitles... that henri had a really horrible english (or spanish, couldn't really tell) accent :p

    Sacrebleu poor Henri. Nice to have what little French I learned tested by trying not to read the subtitles.

    As Dave0179 says, being french makes this even funnier. It is so close to a cat's thinking.

    Give him a prozac and everything will be fine.

    Poor Henrí, his opposable thumbs are non existent too.

    Very cool, and true on cat level as well as depressing French film level. My favorite part was when Henri "made friends" with the spider.
