Here’s one for your cute files: And entire compilation of animals playing dead. While my dog was a genius with this trick, rolling all the way over to his other side for dramatic effect, my cat Farley never quite mastered it. I don’t think it’s because he’s not playing along, I literally think he has some magnetic forcefield that blocks imaginary bullets. So really, my cat is just extra genius for his out of the box interpretation of the “bang bang” trick. Compliments to Compilariz for their wicked new mashup. Previously, they’ve done compilations on why they love Russia and why small gestures mean a lot.

While these animals are all very talented, they have nothing on my albino shih poo Kokomo, who learned the old “bang bang” trick years ago. Admittedly, the hamster is a slightly better actor so I’d nominate him for the Oscar. This compilation of dogs playing dead was put together by CompilarizTV, who were also the masters behind the sleeping dogs and babies laughing at dogs compilations.
