Biohazard? It is if you leave that kittie locked in that box all day.

Is it fake?

Oh, yeah.

Whoa. I am sad, happy, and terribly amused -- all at once!

"Do a wheelie, robo-kitty!"

Do you really think it's fake? It easily could be, but I took it to be on the level. I did, however, find it curious that they didn't show the cat outside the box. Perhaps the hind legs are too mangled up or something.

The reason they have those biohazard symbols all over is because they are "Team Biohazard" They built a pretty successful robot named Biohazard, that fought on the show BattleBots. Apparently biohazard has won more more competitions than any other combat robot.

Here is the link to their BattleBots profile-

Their homepage is http://www.robotbooks.com

There is a section on their homepage that talks about this device for Elvis the cat.

The video clip was from a segment on battlebots and i believe has aired on other shows as well. I believe this is real.

That's really great information. Thanks for pointing it out skforty.

Very late comment and I don't have the power but holy crap.

Re-promoting this video to the front page as a VideoSift Classic. Originally published on Monday 28th August 2006 (promotion called by gold star member djsunkid)

downvote due to promote let new content have it's moment in the spotlight...

For what it's worth, I think it's terrible to downvote promoted vids. Especially such an awesome and cute one. Shame on you, bl968.

How many members does Videosift have that can promote. Lets say everyone who can does as often as they can, what does that do to new submitters stuff? That's right it buries it. That's my sole point with the downvote. I am sorry if it offended you but that's my view on the subject. If I ever use promote you are welcome to downvote it. I won't get mad I promise.

Wow. What is this world coming to?
For whatever it's worth, bl968, Gold Star members can promote once a week, and old videos are not promoted very often, so they aren't flooding the front page or anything. FYI, down-voting does not work as you mean for it to. It does not "let new content have it's moment in the spotlight" because it does not cause a video to change position in the listing.

Thanks for promoting, djsunkid!

That cat sounds pissed off. The robot doesn't really make any cat-like moves, mostly just crazy spinning. Too bad if he wants to pounce, stalk, or even just laze around.
