French Telecom Commercial Features Kittens Doing Awesome Things


Imagine a world filled with tiny kitten sized office buildings, cabs, living rooms, and more. A world where kittens attend meetings, vending machines dispense fish and milk, and "Catchete" is the latest movie rental of the week.

Now imagine that world no more, in this new commercial for French mobile internet service provider, Bouygues Telecom.

According to Melty Buzz (and my friend Google translate):

"Bouygues Telecom is the leader in customer relationship on the phone, how to prove to those who have not joined? By addressing what works best on the web: the cats. The Lolcat as they are known on the Internet, it is the cats videos posted on YouTube, as summarized in Planet of the Cats, a parody of Planet of the Apes."

Hmm, so I'm still not entirely sure of what's going on here, but I like it! (And am feeling strangely motivated to learn French.)

This is a really well done commercial! I've been trying to learn French for years, but somehow, it never clicks. Perhaps these kittens are the very motivation we need!

Oh gosh I love that video even if it is in French. It is just terrific. What fun for all the kitties. Thanks for posting this. Great stuff. Take care.

The computer 'mouse' is a great little touch. Also I don't know... I kinda like the fact that the cats are speaking in french... even if I haven't a clue what they're saying =^..^=
