Tired of being taunted by a pair of apparently free-roaming (and clearly evil) parakeets, a cat named Prince Michael turns to science in this video from filmmaker Aaron Benitez. When that fails him, he finds inspiration in Marvel's Iron Man 2, and with the help of Benitez becomes ... Iron Cat.

"No cats or birds were harmed" in the making of the video, the filmmaker assures, but that's probably only because Prince Michael isn't equipped with repulsor rays.
