Cats are very, very attached to their food. It's just their way. And as any cat owner knows, it can be tricky to put a cat on a diet.

And if you do, you'll also have to figure out how to keep it from lurking around its food dish waiting for the timer to go off.

This frantic clawing isn't much a surprise for cat owners. In fact cats have all sorts of... interesting reactions to their feeders. But this is definitely up there in the "yikes" department.

So we've got to ask... what happens when this cat isn't fed? Does it tear the top off the feeder, or does Japan suddenly have a rampaging animal on its hands?
