Agreed.  But it=92s not the obvious LED pointer trail that cats love, thoug=

e ground in the video.  At two points the bouncing image changes direction =
very rapidly in an un-animal-like manner, so it does appear to be human-mad=
e.  First guess is that somebody with video skills has superimposed another=
 image on top of the cat pic, and that it=92s a scam.  Second guess is that=
 it=92s a miniature UFO.

Dear Andrew and All,

I had a look at this. That must be some rotating light source nearby or som=

Fascinating that it is bouncing and in January. Any ideas are appreciated.

The video is available on Twitter, using the link. You don't have to be sub=
