Ok, the real question is: who is better at catching mice? The cat or the owl? The stalker, or the dive bomber?
Owl for sure they can see from up top, and swoop in fast, besides, they're cooler too
jdw99 They actually have very similar hunting strategies, but the owl's vision is far superior lol
jdw99 The owl is faster but I doubt it would wait near a mouse hole for the mouse to come out
And here we see both the graceless land cat, and baffled sky cat communicating.
That owl is beautiful, it looks like it has the universe on its wings.
"it looks like it has the universe on it's wings"....pure poetry. Thank you.
Owls are so cool! I love the way they swivel their head and just observe stuff around them. The way their head moves is almost robotic ^_^
Did you know that an owl's eyes are fixed in position? They can't move them, so when the need to look at something they have to turn their whole head.
THANK YOU FOR REPLYING! And thank you for uploading this video (I was watching this adorable owl in class. Shhh... don't tell anyone :) )
stellvia hoenheim Y'know, I actually was watching a video a few months ago of an owl that turned its head almost 180 degrees and what a coincidence that I tried exactly what you said since the owl looked so cool doing it! It didn't end well, been in the hospital ever since and can't move from the neck down. Tragic huh?
Owls are the avian version of cats, they are flying pillows filled with seething hatred
Atleast there is 1 thing we can be sure of here....there are no mouse problems in this house!
lol the cat is just like "play with meeee"
Let's just have sex like normal people and forget about creepy "playing"
Such a beautiful creature. Owls truly are amazing
they are both beautiful and they match in colors and looks haha very cute
Lol, they look like different versions of the same thing.
@@AngelEyes124yea I noticed how they modelled Mononykus after a Barn Owl in Prehistoric Planet it was adorable
this is just a story book waiting to be written.
It's already been written (well, a poem, not a story book): The Owl and the Pussy Cat, by Edward Lear. www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/43188/the-owl-and-the-pussy-cat
Owls. Everyone's fond of owls. Except mice and shrews and simon cowell.
Actually, Arabs have traditionally detested owls. Israel now has a program to promote biological rodent control/reduction of pesticide use using barn owls and kestrels. It's been a huge success and now Jordanian and Palestinian farmers are learning about this and changing their minds about the owls. "In the Middle East, the dove has been replaced by the barn owl and the kestrel as ambassadors of peace."
They look like they’re having a really awkward first date
2:19 Human turns off Camera
2:21 human leaves room

Cat: FINALLY!! I thought they would Never Leave!!
Owl: I Know!! Well Lets PLAY!! You Have the Contestants?
Cat: Right Here! >:) All 12 of them. Where's the Host?
Dog: I'm Here! (uh em) Welcome to 75th MOUSER GAMESSSSSSS!!!!!!
Mice: This is wrong! :-(
Owl: No.... This is survival of the fittest.
Mice: And if we refuse to Play?!? ~:(
Cat: Well we could just eat you here.........
Mice: ................ so what are the rules again?
Owl: Make it out of the house and you live.
Dog: And May you Know the odds Are NEVER in Your Favor!
+Tmarie2u u should write the Owl and Cat version of Stuart Little; i imagine it would be action packed :P
This video is literally "My barn owl and cat". Though they're just idling, you have to respect the honesty. Hah.
The owl is like "Am I supposed to play with this thing? I'll pretend I'm not seeing it" meanwhile the cat's like *staaaaarrrrreeeeeeee*
They're just sitting there doing nothing, yet I can stare at them forever and not feel bored. The cat is adorable and the owl is lovely.
I dunno guys, I only see two cats. A Scottish Fold, and a weird winged cat with feathers and bird feet. ;)
The owl is beautiful!
Tomaso375 Hey!, don't discriminate. The cat is equally as beautiful. If only she found out you said that she will boycott you and leave you abstinent for the rest of your life.
Real life Litten and Rowlet!
Litten used Scratch!
Rowlet used Wing Attack!
Litten used Rest!
Rowlet used Foresight!
Put two leaves on the owl's neck and he'll be an actual rowlet
Owl: this room is awesome!
Cat: LOOK AT ME DAMN IT, I'M F*CKING CUTE!!
Owl's and cat's have something similar... beautiful creatures ❤️🐱🦉
That owl looks like it knows about everything and everyone
This video made me realise just how similar the two species are in a way.. Both stealth masters with wide eyes that don’t allow for much rotation but are highly adapted to night vision, they hunt the same prey, have similar calm/quiet temperament but can also produce the most demonic sounds known to man, have great patience which is linked to forward thinking and intelligence.
Love this video ❤
I like how the cat took the submissive position when the owl got a bit uppity with it.
+Robert Duncan thats not submissive position, cat often does that when wants to play
that doesnt mean they want to play... i thought the same thing when my cat did that and tried to play with it... then it bit me :-\ turns out that position is either a sign of trust or a warning that all defense mechanisms ( claws, teeth, etc.)will be engaged if you try to touch it anywhere near the stomach... :-\
My Parents
That's also true... cats, either small house or big wild, tend to fight from below so to speak... in this position they can use all four clawed legs while delivering bites at the same time.
This kitty looked like she just wanted to play, though. But one can never be 100% sure about their intentions.
ThanatosSGD1 yea... I hate how certain things cats do can either mean come love me or it could mean try something and ill claw ur face off... But thats what makes me love them so much (i probably dont make any sense... Oh well XD)
I know that there are strict laws about Barn Owls. It's illegal just to own one of their feathers. If you find one that has perished on the side of a road, you are not even supposed to touch it. It seems a shame too. Because some type of wild animal is just going to come along and drag the carcass to the desert, and destroy it's beautiful feathers. I think that someone should be able to pick up the owl and bring it to a museum and let them decide if they want to preserve it's beauty, in an Natural History Museum somewhere. But our Government says, "Don't touch. or else, we will fine you out the wazoo". Seems like such a waste of natures natural beauty.
The law is for any bird of prey. Problem is the authorities hve no way of telling if you got the feathers due to a road kill or hunting it. Mute point thogh as this video was not in the US.
What is going on in the head of a barn owl
+Joe Silkwood Despite their reputation for being wise, owls are pretty dumb by bird standards (their brain space is mostly taken up by their eyes). So probably not much.
Lol sadly I hit 3 on the road this year. the last stuck to my side mirror an all but stared at me with a broken back for a few miles... I've been researching this bird every since... An I'm afraid u may be right. But they represent being insightful seeing in dark an hearing better then they see an flying without making sound with good instinct of threat an a love for humans called the flying hunting cat. ain't bad for a dumb bird
+Joe Silkwood You let it suffer with a broken back for miles? The fuck...
Cat: NOTICE ME OWL-Senpai!
Owl: NEVVAA!!
kitty wants to play....and waits so patiently but owl is in a mood to observe his
surroundings.
This kind of owls are soo elegant, it looks as if it was wearing a venice carnival mask
I love how the owl is trying to avoid eye contact at all costs.
The owl is like "where the fuck am I? And you the fuck are you?"
That barn owl is one of the most beautiful creatures I have ever seen.
Just goes to show that you simply can't beat the real thing.
Nature rocks.
What a cool looking bird. Look at those feathers. :)
That owl is a barn owl they are found on every continent except antarctica!
we are friend cos ur enemy is my enemy too
I like how the cat is just chilling while the owl is like;
"What is that?"
"Oh, what's that?"
"What's this?"
"What is THAT?"
"Hey, look at THAT thing! No, that other thing."
"What's that noise?"
"Is that a camera?"
"Oh, what's in here?"
Owls are basically the avian equivalent of cats.
They are like cats, except better at hunting and with an ear-splitting screech. Like, cat yowls are mews compared to that.
I think they need a script, they don't exactly know what to do.
I love that in the beginning, when the owl jumps a little bit, the cat lays down to show they mean no harm.
Land owl meets Sky cat, How adorable.
Aww that owl is sooo adorable! :)
I love how the barn owl was just relaxing and then the cat annoyed it❤ oh and btw I love barn owls
Scottish Fold and a Barn Owl! Two perfect animals!
They're both so adorable I just really want to help them both in the route that I'll can turn its head
Wow some of the comments are very rude, it's not like she picked up the owl from the wold
No, but someone did and at a young age so as to raise it by hand... Barn owl numbers are dwindling in the wild because people are destroying their homes and taking hatchlings from their nests to raise as pets... I love barn owls and would love to have one as a pet but it is cruel and I would rather there be some in the wild for my daughter to enjoy...
Rachel Harper I can't believe how stupid you people are... it's in the name of the goddamn animal BARN OWL. They have adapted to living in people's barns, sheds, and other human structures. Not only that but you fail to think that maybe this owl was a rescue and cannot survive in the wild on it's own anymore. If you're gonna be a fucking hippie, at least be a smart one.
Rachel Harper Except I provided facts. Fine though, if you want to consider facts as opinions that is your problem, not mine.
Rachel Harper you got your ass torched. Sit down please. Try again later. Accept your loss. OverZealousFist made a great point. You cannot win every argument you engage in.
Barn Owls are such beautiful creatures they definitely are my favorite owl species 💙🦉!!
What a beautiful owl! You are so lucky to have one as a pet!
Aww. The Barn Owl looks just like Soren.
He's the Barn Owl from the Legend of the Guardians, based off the book series, the Guardians of Ga'Hoole.
It would have been more entertaining to throw a mouse between them.
Cat : "just wait till mum goes out the room birdy"
Owl : "just wait till mum goes out the room kitty"
i just love how the owl and the cat seem to be friends
0:16 thats cute when the owl looks at you
i wish i could turn my head like that
I love barn owls they're the most beautiful and cutest birds ever!!!!
Why do hoots move their heads in that way...looks like they're doing the robot, pop n lock.
owls eyes are locked facing forward by bone.they have to turn their whole head to look around.
Also, they can only turn their head 270 degrees. And they have lots of bones in their neck to be able to turn their head that far. And every time they turn their head blood vessels take different routes.
Owl: "There's a cat? Where is a cat? I don't see a cat."
If you colored the screen red and marked the owl's line of sight throughout the whole video green, this would be a video about a red cat.
Me: "Just snuggle it already!"
Other: "The cat or the owl?"
Me: "BOTH!"
The cat: play...play..I'm being sexy..
The owl: what's my motivation again?
cat : OwO
owl : OvO
cat get bored: - w -
owl looking around: O v O
I really have a hard time deciding whether or not owls are cute or creepy. They some times can be both at the same time, what an animal
59s in cat is like "how you do that head thing" then the cat tries to do it its self! Lol that the way it looked to me
Barn owls are my favorite out of the other kind of owls since their face looks like a spartan helmet
Owl: Must...avoid...all...eye...contact...
I love how they kinda have the same colour palette of light brown, cute
What a beautiful bird 🦉
00:17 that beautiful wink
they are so lovely together.. Owl has a beautiful expression and cat seems to want to make friends with it.. I would too. lol
I've always loved how clueless birds look all the time. I own two budgies and they always look confused by everything I do, even if it is changing their food or putting them to bed.

**Owl Uses Wink**
**The Cat Got Jealous!**
**Very Effective**
aww they are so CUTE!!
Cat trying to sneak up, owl quickly turned to the cat; what's up bro!?! You wanna go!?!
The cat quickly realized he can't sneak up toward the owl, the owl got the upper hand in this game, so the cat lied down and showned its tummy to the owl, whenever an animal does that in nature it basically meants: oh shit you got me good, I got nothing on my hand, ill stop resisting, you can do anything to me daddy.
But the owl never trusted the cat, and cat just stays there waiting for approval. The funny thing is, cats are usually the one who doesn't trust people and force others to wait for its approval.
This is like a animal version of love/hate power balance relationship. So much thing can happen within a minute.
actually no cats show their stomach as a defence posture. research your shit before commenting false knowledge.
GoldenClaw3 showing weakest part of your body and lying down is a defense posture, you need immediate medical attention.
Atsuko Hashimoto have you even researched it?
Although belly exposure is generally a positive thing, it can point to defensiveness in a cat, too. If a cat is in a frightening or otherwise threatening situation and feels he has no way out, he may assume a belly-up position as a technique for taking full advantage of all of his defensive tools, in particular retracted claws. When a cat is in this state of heightened protectiveness, he's certainly not feeling cuddly. Be on the lookout for growling and hissing, other hints of defensiveness.
Aww the kitty is so cute! And the owl reminds me of Soren from guardians of ga'hoole! Pygmy owl noise flyer and elf owl. Grass owl whispered screech owl snowy owl spotted owl etc! So many owls! I LOVE OWLS AND Cats!!!!
Don't lie to us. I see that they're both made out of cappuccino.
Owls are so awesome
Dang that owl is a BEAUTIFUL creature!
Lol, they have the same face.
rowlet and litten, right there.
Does the cat always has ears like that? How do you even read if he's angry?
I think the cat is a Scottish fold their ears are naturally like that
Kakto Tak I think his ears will still move back if he's angry. The fold is cute though.
He could be a Scottish fold cat they have naturally pinned back ears it's a feature of the breed if a cat is angry they normally hiss and growl :)
What a cool owl--and that cat is wonderful!
How did you get an owl I've been wanting one so bad!!!
Which one are you taking with you to Hogwarts?
The cat is like NOTICE ME OWL SEMPAI!!!
and the owl is just like NOPE!
Cat: **poke**
Owl: -v- **looking around discovering things**
Cat: :c **lay helplessly on side**
Owl: **continue to discover**
Barn Owls are 10^10^100000000000 times more intelligent than cats from what I can see in this video
