Some mad scientist had a cat who wouldn't leave a plant on his kitchen counter alone. He could have turned to a spray bottle, abuse, abandonment, or euthanasia, but instead he turned to his gadgetry skillz. The genius rigged a motion detector to a blender and a strobe light, so every time the cat jumped on the counter he was greeted with a whirr and a flash. But he didn't stop there: he wired up a networked video camera to shoot the scenes! The fraidy cat videos are hilarious; watch them here.
