The 'I Hate Kitties' video may have a hate on for cats, but it certainly shows a love for art. The video was produced and directed by Pamela Reed and Matthew Rader. The concept behind it is truly creative and combines animation, live performance and an [idea for a video game](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/neko-atsume-2).

The video features a rather [Lady Gaga/ Katy Perry-esqu female character](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/katy-perry-1) walking around a house kicking [a bunch of cats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/exploding-kittens-the-board-game). It's set up like a video game, and in order to get to the next level, the female character has to kick away a certain amount of felines. The background scenery and the cats are all animated. The music also loops the saying "I hate kitties" in a rather daunting voice.

This is a truly sweet concept for an art film and is worth checking out.
