In a strange video that has emerged online shows a cat carefully examining a painting hung on the owner's wall before bringing it down. The video posted by u/Hosseh on Reddit shows a black-and-white feline standing on its back limb and looking at the painting intensely before bringing it down by placing its paws on top of the frame. It seems the cat was looking for some insect or fly when it mistakenly brought down the painting. The sudden fall of the painting startled the pet standing on its cat tree and made it lose its balance for a while.

Mine’s been like this for the past few nights chasing geckos but without knocking pictures off the wall," to which the original poster replied, "I think it was a small fly."
