this cat's trainer's name is michaela from the czech republic and she trains sheltie dogs, competitionogs and does really well. they win all sorts of awards and then she got this cat that was four months old and decided, why not train it. and now it has perfected all of the moves. this is my favorite little trick that you can see. the cat jumps up on the shoes and goes -- jumps up on one shoe, jumps over to the other one. i'm into that. >>> i like this cat better than most cats, because it doesn't just sit there and judge you like a lot of cats do. it just sits there and looks at you and think of ways that they're going to do your house after you leave. and tear up your stuff and just -- judge you with their weird eyes. >> are you worried about cats? judging you? >> yeah, they're judgers. >> you know what i think you should do, actually. now that we know there are competition cats, you should become a judge at this cat competition, because then you could judge the cats. >> i would be the most impartial judge of all time because of my hatred for cats is just across the board. >>> tomorr

convicted komisarjevsky of the murders of jennifer hawke-petit and her two daughters, haleigh and michaelaat absolutely reprehensible case disturbing connecticut and the rest of the country. let's bring in dr. keith ablow. member of the fox medical news a-team. doctor, they already lost in court in terms of fighting a conviction. he has been convicted. he faces the death penalty. they're saying they want to bring in his 9-year-old daughter. put her on the stand. try to make him a human being in front of the jury instead of the monster they convicted and let life or death essentially rest on this little girl's shoulders? >> well, preposterous. number one, it can be psychologically, incredibly traumatizing to the little girl. that's the first fact that we should accept. secondly he shouldn't have any parental rights at this point anyhow. there's a guardian in place or there ought to be or the, the other parent to this little girl. so i think as a matter of course it shouldn't be that a defendant in a trial in which he or she has been found guilty of murder and is at the penalty phase regardi
