Hi,

Directed by Marilyn Agrelo. You'€™ll be hard-pressed to find a more unusual circus, or father-daughter performing duo. The Moscow Cat Theatre is just that: a travelling show of cats that perform amazing tricks for the owners who love and train them. Everybody in Russia may be used to seeing cats perform tricks, as the theatre’s manager explains in this funny, charming film, but felines walking tightropes, crossing the stage on giant balls and walking upside down is not a common sight in most countries. As balalaika and accordion circus score plays in the background, Creative Director Vladimir and daughter Maria combine their love of cats and stage to create a captivating act and illustrate the tricks of the trade – giving new meaning to the expression '€˜herding cats'€™.

That was amazing. I never would have thought cats could be so cooperative.

Thank you for shareing. :)
 
Very cool tricks - seems like they're capable of quite some sophistication.

Shortly after 1:55, the guy states

Some guy said:
"[The cat trainer] has a preference. As long as the cat is lively, up and looking to please."

They're probably much more trainable if "they're looking to please", and I just haven't met much of those cats.
