We all know that Simon Cowell has a soft spot for dog acts on Britain’s Got Talent. However, but I bet he never thought he’d find talent in some cats.
A cat act on America’s Got Talent left Simon speechless, as a troupe of cats death-defying leaps, swinging from poles and jumping through hoops. That truly was the Cirque du Soleil for cats!
Hopefuls Svetlana and Marina took to the stage to audition with their Savitsky Cats, and when they told AGT’s judges — Simon Cowell, Mel B, Heidi Klum and Howie Mandel that they train cats, Simon – who has three Yorkshire Terriers – didn’t look too convinced.
After a stunning performance that left everyone’s jaw dropped, the judges unanimously voted to send The Savitsky Cats to Hollywood Week, and we can’t wait to see what they do next.
“You know why that was so impressive?” asked Cowell after the cats finished their hairball-raising performance. “Because dogs want to please. Cats are like, ‘Make me.’ They had sort of like ‘cattitude.’
‘I think there’s a gap in the market for this. I thought with my dogs sometimes, it’s like I want to take them out and see a show and this is a show I can take them to.’
And Heidi said: ‘Obviously I am also very impressed. I used to have a cat and even if I would call her name, she wouldn’t even come inside of the house.’
