He's like a fainting goat. Halfway up he just froze solid.

This is so funny. The look of shock on his face is hilarious, but the physical jolt of his body at :39 had me lmfao. He just goes all stiff like one of those fainting goats. It was as if he was suddenly sucked back into reality from whatever joyful land of eternal mouse batteries he was frolicing in.

Fainting Goat.

If you click through to the actual YT video, the person reports that only the black and white one has died.

I hate you forever :'(>> ^moopysnooze:

My trusty metro paper tells me this morning that one of the kitties have passed from respiratory failure as this condition also causes stiffness of the oesophagus making it difficult for them to eat or breath. Aww sweeties I wonder why the goats seemed ok...

Sad but hilariously funny at times as well...
I think President Bush has this syndrome as well...


I think, when you consider that they're not suffering, it's significantly less sad. They're not in pain and they're not aware that anything is wrong or that they're not "normal" kittens.

Also, Bush's case is clearly different. While myotonia congenita causes its sufferers to have uncontrollable muscle contractions at the slightest surprise, GWB seems to suffer from a condition that causes him to attempt genocide at the slightest surprise.
