We often envy young animals for their energy and vitality. But sometimes those youngsters can also inspire us to relive our youth and put a spark in our step. Cats can be lazy sometimes, but often, especially when they are kittens, they seem to conquer their worlds with unlimited athleticism and power.
The following videos can encourage all of us to get up and jump around, or leap up those stairs, or whole-heartedly chase that laser light. Watch these clips of energetic cats and be inspired!

1. Someday this cat will get that light. (Keep telling yourself that, cat.)
The cat in this video has sensitive skin and can't go outside, so he gets his exercise indoors on a giant cat wheel. The bait is every cat's frustration: the red laser light. Check out this cat as he hits the wheel and tries to kick that football...um, I meant, catch that light. Good luck, cat!

2. Mama doesn't play, kids.
What do you do when you're a busy mom, and you've got a house full of kids who are always playing and running and jumping on you? You put them in their place, which is precisely what mama cat Belle does in this video. You go, mama!

5. Here's a kitten who enjoys playing Wack-a-Husky.
Mufasa the kitten has grown up with Gabriel the Husky, so perhaps that's why the little feline takes great liberties with his canine friend. This kitten likes to stir up some trouble by sneak-attacking Gabriel and smacking him on his face. It's a good thing Gabriel loves this kitten! Watch Mufasa's cheeky slaps in the following video.
