A rebel cat takes down a plastic owl statue in the most hilarious way. The feline knocked over the yard ornament in a way only a cat could and would do it. Watch the short but hysterical clip to see how the animal decided to tip over the plastic figure.

Cats are lovely animals and make for terrific pets. Anyone who has ever had the pleasure of owning a feline understands the joy of keeping one in your house. They are warm and cuddly creatures who typically brush up against you, signaling when they want attention.  

However, in life, there are downsides to everything, including cats. Yes, they are warm, cuddly and friendly. But felines can also be some of Earth's most strong-willed and stubborn critters. Trying to get a cat to do something it doesn’t want to is fighting a losing battle. They will refuse to listen and do what they want regardless of what you’ve told them or done. It will be like you never said or did anything. A cat is going to cat.

A clip posted on social media perfectly captures a cat's stubborn and strong-willed personality. The short, 9-second video features a feline outside exploring. As the clip begins, a full-grown, light-colored cat walks across a front porch. It has spotted something worth investigating. The cat props itself up on an orange container holding a plant. Next to the orange container sits a plastic owl statue.

Now, being a statue, the owl is doing nothing but standing completely still, not bothering a thing. It does not give the cat any problems and does not impede the feline’s exploration activities in the slightest. But before the cat climbs into the container, the animal feels the need to send a message to the plastic statue. It bumps the plastic statue, knocking it to the ground.

You know that the cat was repeatedly told to leave the owl alone, but it just couldn’t resist being that close to it and not knocking it over. Again, cats are going to cat, always.
