Relate to the monitor and window/icon decorations, that cat must be dead already.

I've had a couple cats live to 20+. It's not impossible they're still alive. If not dead, certainly on their deathbed though.

Yeah it's the early 2000s with XP, IE6 with Google search bar, glad we got rid of those!

That monitor gave me immediate nostalgia.

The window decorations gave me flashbacks.

That's an ancient setup. Only fitting to have an ancient solution.

It's a matter of perspective. To me, an Apple II is ancient. This is last month.

Cats originally started living with us because they hunted mice. Now that people have moved into cities and farmers have other options to get rid of pests, cats had to adapt and started doing this to not become useless.

Sorry sir. That is against YouTubes terms and conditions.

YT will block them because now they don't know to drink Mountain Dew™ verification can #3 to prove they watched the ad.

Look at that monitor! Those are a thing of the past. Remember when you'd press the "Degauss" button and the screen would go apeshit for a second? Good times.
