Acrobatic cat keeps its paws dry in bridge high-wire feat

You may already know that cats hate water, but here's a hilarious reminder from Latvia. Forced to cross an evil stream on a discarded rail-turned-makeshift-bridge, our feline hero improvises a high-wire act to keep its paws nice and dry. The kitty earns commenter comparisons to the Internet-famous "Monorail Cat," which is fitting, because this is likely the closest thing to the resiliently futuristic train you'll find in this country.

And no, we don't know why you'd walk your cat in the snow, either.
