If you thought the recent videos of [pizza rat](http://time.com/4043383/rat-pizza-slice-subway/) and [milkshake squirrel](http://time.com/4046272/milkshake-squirrel/) were evidence enough of this, just wait until you see this footage of the one and only window mouse. The small animal uses its seemingly superior of intelligence to torment a cat, its species’ greatest enemy. While passerby stop to laugh at the scene, the cheeky mouse uses the window separating it from the cat to drive the feline insane. Which rodent will be next to become a viral video sensation? ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4049350/mouse-torments-cat-through-window/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4049350/mouse-torments-cat-through-window/"},"headline":"Watch This Sassy Mouse Turn The Tables On a Cat","datePublished":"2015-09-25T00:50:35.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:25:12.105Z","description":"It's a real-life Tom and Jerry scene","url":"https://time.com/4049350/mouse-torments-cat-through-window/","keywords":["Newsfeed","animals","viral","New York City","cat","animal videos"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Megan McCluskey","jobTitle":"Staff Writer","url":"https://time.com/author/megan-mccluskey/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4049350/mouse-torments-cat-through-window/","name":"Watch This Sassy Mouse Turn The Tables On a Cat"}}]}] ```
