Whole thing is really quite dumb. The cat just walks towards / stares at the drone, it does not physically prevent it from landing - the operator just gets spooked and flies off.

Not to mention that this is an article about a video that links to another article about the video.

Agreed. That cat was very curious about the drone, but there was no hunting/stalking body language there. The operator would've been fine to land it. He would've come upon the cat sniffing it thoroughly when he went over to pick it up.

Looked to me like the drone op didn't want to risk hurting the cat with the props or the frame, or risk the cat hurting the drone lol, and the cat didn't understand it needed to back up a little to let it land.

But yeah what the hell is with the матрёшка articles lol. Cute kitty though!
