I found this website today that sell videos for cats.http://www.cattv.com Sounds a bit like a crazy idea but at the same time the cats do get interested when there are birds on TV. Have you ever tried those videos for your cats?
Here's a pic of Costello watching TV (dogs!).

There was a time that I would have thought that those videos were silly but I'm not so sure anymore. I have a friend at work who's daughter buys them for her Siamese and he loves them! He will watch the whole video. I notice that mine take interest when certain things are on tv so they might like them as well. I have been considering buying one but hubby might not want to give up his shows for a kitty video!!http://petoftheday.com/talk/images/our_smilies/biggrin.gif
Here's Pete watching a nature show.

I bought the video a couple of years ago. The first time Edwina watched it she ran around the back of the tv trying to find where to get in! She particularly likes the rodents. The big birds bore her.

Here's a photo of Eddie watching the video...

Aww, those pics are so cute :)

Boomer likes to be on top of the TV and sorta hang over the edge and watch TV sometimes, when I have the Animal Planet channel on.

Beans also watches every now and then, but Jade and Bownie don't care.

Ed likes basketball, car and motorcycle racing....

There is a big Harley that comes up the street-
Ed runs to the window to see, he loves the exhaust noise.

Ok, my image of Eddie has changed. I pictured this adorable kitty that loved his grandma and snuggling with his dad.
Now I see BIG ED in a spiked leather collar ready to shred anyone who dares mention his grandma or dad!!!:D :D http://petoftheday.com/talk/images/our_smilies/biggrin.gif

Ok, there has to be a song in there somewhere. Not from me mind you, but someone with creativity could come up with something.:D

Loved all the pictures of the kitties watching TV. My two don't seem that interested in it. However, they do notice if there are dogs or cats sounds comming from it. So who knows.

I have my own version of Cat TV during the warm months. I bought 4 bird feaders, and set them in front of our livingroom window, then I raise the blinds and the cats go crazy over all the birds :) And Thats my Cat TV, No commercials and its on 24/7 :)

I love that site.I may get the kitties a video.I think it is neat.I think the dogs may like it too.Thanks for sharing it with us.I wonder if to much TV is bad for the kittiies :D At least I don't have to monitor it if I buy the video..

My cats like to watch football, maybe because we like to watch football. Here Pichu kept watching for the whole time they had the sport news, and nothing could get his attention, even us laughing.

He loves to watch tv, and very often if I sit near the radiator, just in front of the tv, he comes on my lap and watches for a long time, especially if it's Animal Planet :)

Love the pictures... When Chester was "young" he use to sit on pillows I had on front of the TV and watch it. Those storm warnings that would go across the bottom of the screen, he would try to catch and would go to the side of the TV to see where they went.

He also use to sit at the front door and watch the birds at the bird feeder and "talk" to the birds and squirrels, making a chirping sound that use to crack everybody up! Ever heard a cat chirp?
