People may debate which animals are smarter, cats or dogs. But in the accompanying video, filmed in Australia, the feline critter clearly outsmarts the canine critter. The clip is soaring in popularity for the obvious cuteness factor. After all, most cats would just climb up a tree or leap up and over a fence if being chased by a terrier. But this cat chose a much cooler means of escape, a surfboard, and barely even got its paws wet. However, the crafty animal might have enjoyed unfair advantage, as the person who uploaded the video trains cats for a living.
