A man who wished to discover what his farmyard cat gets up to throughout the day strapped the brand-new Insta360 Go 3 to see where he goes.
Jake Watson from Corridor Crew relocated to a little farm in main Texas and acquired some relatively nomadic farm cats — consisting of one called Junior.
“They hunt mice, they hunt grasshoppers. I’d like to at least figure out where it sleeps that would make feel better just knowing that,” Watson says in the above video.
After checking out a number of various setups for the cat camera, the team chooses sticking the flexible Go 3 onto the collar.
Farm Cat Footage
The angle is shot from Junior’s throat providing audiences a first-person view (or first-cat view) with his hairs partly obscuring the frame that makes for a soaking up shot.
Watson instantly found where Junior invests the majority of his (in a tree) and likewise understood that he was entering the chicken cage where he triggers minimal mischief.
Another of Watson’s issues was that Junior wasn’t discovering the cat food he put out for him in a barn, the cat camera rapidly revealed that he has no issue discovering the food.
However, when examining the video from the barn, Watson likewise found that Junior had actually experienced a rat.
“I’ve never seen one in here, I don’t know whether or not it had been in here a long time or whether it was just passing through,” says Watson.
“But either way, it seems Junior found a rat but ultimately didn’t do anything about it.”
Junior is maybe not the sort of rodent hunter a farm owner may wish for. However, the cat camera showed up yet more intriguing video when Junior encountered a dead rat outdoors which, it ends up, might have been killed by Watson’s dog Abi. When the Insta360 Go 3 was strapped to Abi, she was seen moving the rat around the farm and likewise getting a deer leg.
“Watching through this footage opened up a whole new perspective for me,” says Watson at the end of the video.
“And I’m not just talking visually, this farm, it isn’t just their home, this is their world and I’m glad to have had the opportunity to see it from their view.”
