June 26 (UPI) -- A pair of cats in Japan that have been trained to ring bells for treats have improved their act by donning fruit-shaped hats.
Twitter user b_ru_ru shared a series of videos showing the two well-trained felines frantically tapping on the bells to receive treats while sporting the silly hats.
The first video from June 17 features the cats wearing apple-shaped hats, while maintaining the bell-ringing skills that first made them viral stars.
For the next four days b_ru_ru shared videos featuring the cats wearing melon, banana, orange, strawberry and watermelon hats.

I have such a bell. I am going to see if our cats can "get it." 2 of them look like mirror images of the 2 in the video.

(11,330 posts)I showed our oldest cat Athena how the base works...now when she wants food in the AM and I'm still in bed....she turns the light on so that I get up.
I trained my other two cats to come home for the dinner bell.

And they play guitar better than I do.
