This mini documentary has a great bit of info about the Moscow Cat Theater. Apparently shows like this are fairly common in Russia although we certainly have nothing in the states like this, at least not with cats. It's easy to think the cats are unhappy if you saw them outside of the film, but seeing them with their owners, you can see there's a lot of love there.

Update: For those of you who can't watch Hulu, coconutnut has found the video on YouTube. Thanks Coconutnut!
Other than that..these kitties work hard for their owners...I see nothing wrong with that. You can tell they are well cared for and loved.
As for anyone who says this is mean to the cats; Since when do cats do anything they don't want to! If you say that and believe that, then you've never had a cat.
Remember cats don't have owners, they have staff.
If you had actualy read taliesyn30 post then it states the video CAN NOT be viewed OUTSIDE the USA. Check your reading skills.
I would bet that the video is available on YouTube as well.... unlike Hulu that has global reach...
Anyone know why Hulu is so restricted? Servers, copyright.... que pasa?
Protip: don't use hulu its the devil
The WORST I tell you.
"International
For now, Hulu is a U.S. service only. That said, our intention is to make Hulu's growing content lineup available worldwide. This requires clearing the rights for each show or film in each specific geography and will take time. We're encouraged by how many content providers have already been working along these lines so that their programs can be available over the Internet to a much larger, global audience. The Hulu team is committed to making great programming available across the globe."

Why put something up with is only accessible to certain visitors? Posting a video which required a subscription from another website wouldn't work for Neatorama. So why post something from Hulu, where a paid subscription isn't even possible?
What? The cats have interchangeable feet? Cool.
However, hulu rocks. I'm not sure what makes it evil. Each country has it's own set of copyright laws. I'm sure it takes a battery of international lawyers to wade through the crap.
I'm off to watch an episode of The Tick on hulu.
Thank you for the youtube link! Dang Hulu!
