The Mean Kitty Song by Cory Williams, Staring His Cat Sparta

by Scott Beale on March 3, 2009 · 8 comments

Back in 2007 actor and professional YouTuber Cory “Mr. Safety” Williams of Thousand Oaks, CA made a great music video for “The Mean Kitty Song” about his cat Sparta.

The video became so popular (currently over 18 million views) that Cory launched Sparta’s own channel on YouTube, TheMeanKitty. Recently there as been some sad news, in January Cory posted an update saying that Sparta had feline leukemia.

As a tribute to Sparta, Cory made his “Midnight” video about cheating death.
