The iPad: So Simple a Cat Can Use It

This article is over 14 years old and may contain outdated information

How simple is the iPad and its games? One adorable fluffy kitty demonstrates precisely that.

I’m not exactly a fan of Apple products myself, but I will say this: The iPad (and products like it) are pretty damn intuitive for people to use. Why, they’re so intuitive that you could use them by randomly batting at the screen – like, say, a cat.

Which is exactly what one iPad owner’s feline friend does, as seen in the video above. The cat – named Iggy – makes his way through the iPad port of Keita Takahashi’s Noby Noby Boy ($2), and then paws through the “Magic Piano” app ($3) just fine. And he looks adorable while doing it. Aww, who’s a cute little iPad user? You are, yes you are!

Not only are Iggy’s paws less greasy than human fingers, says the cat’s human, but the screen was fine – claws aren’t as strong as glass, after all.

Steve Jobs couldn’t be reached for comment, but he was rumored to be taking this new information to R&D for Apple’s next product to capture this heretofore-unknown potential audience. Word on the street is that Apple plans to announce the iCheezburger next month.
