Many years ago: My wife was on the treadmill when my toddler threw a squishy foam ball (about soccer ball size) at the rear end. It caught the tread and got pulled in. Emerging from the front and cracking the cowling over the motor.
Came here to say this. Definitely should be higher up in the comment than it is. I supposed it's fine if a parent/guardian is present, but it's too easy for children to sneak away and do things w/o your knowledge. It's best to teach them to stay away.
I love cats. I love them so much. I look into the eyes of a cat and I see a individual intelligence THINKING about the world around them and how they interact with it. I see them learning how to do new things with such speed and ingenuity that erases all doubt in my mind that cats are 'just animals'. They are intelligent individuals that have thoughts and desires beyond simple instinctual needs. I look into the eyes of a cat, and I see a soul.
Even as a little kid I'd have these moments looking at our cat where I was completely and utterly mindblown that we get to have a miniature tiger in our house. And she loves us? This is the coolest thing.
I'm not religious, but love this line in the documentary "Kedi", a movie about how, in Turkey, hundreds of thousands of cats roam free. "Dogs think people are God, but cats don't. Cats are aware of God's existence. Cats know that people act as middlemen to God's will. They're not ungrateful, they just know better."

Waiting for the next video where your child seriously injured probably not a good idea to let your child play with keep fit equipment.

No that's for hanging laundry on.

Letting a kid play with the treadmill like this is how my cousin had most the skin ripped off his back and in the ICU for a week at age 9.

She is a patient teacher and she can speak cat.

please do not encourage young children to use treadmills, kids get really hurt or die on these machines
YoudSwearImAVirgin
Great. Absolutely great. First you guys come for our guns for killing kids in schools. Now you're coming after our treadmills? This is ridiculous! /s

That's pretty much how I treat any animal. As an individual, a person basically.

Cats can be appreciated and loved with out involving delusional religions.
alantosai
and people can find beauty and comfort in the fact that appreciation and love for cats is so strong as to be immortalized in mythology.

One of my old native friends swears that cats are spy’s for aliens
Cranbananarama
As if cats would obey aliens. Cats are spies for cats.
kathlTvVillain
Cats are very independent ! They would not work (spy) for anyone or thing. :)
majorPUFFEN2
That’s what the aliens want you to think 👽
