- Rebecca and Ruth Brown are twin sisters who run a museum about the Civil War in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. The twist? Their scale model dioramas are filled with thousands of miniature cats depicting key moments from the war. That’s right: tiny cat soldiers. You have to see it to believe it.

I guess it's cute that there a little cat soldiers, but there are also thousands of dead cats strewn around the battlefield.
I'm a dog person so that's the best part
The Outhouse Studios fuck you
The dogs will have a feast

Underrated Comment 😭😭

@@BottleOwater1776 💀💀💀💀💀💀
All of these cats were hand made? Wow, that's incredible, especially when you consider that everything is to scale. I wonder how long it takes to make just one of them.
They might have too much time on their hands.
Maybe
you mean paws?
@Dylan Warren - Hey, at least they're putting it to good use.
Greg’s Dad really went overboard on this one.
Harvard University I was looking for this comment
@@yangyangxia4081 I honestly think that Mr. Heffley is actually a civil war soldier reincarnated and has flashbacks😳 just a little theory
In the beginning I thought they were talking about the battle of Schrute farms
Me too!
Good one!
Those darn catfederates!
The correct side is the mewnion
Ahahahaha
Brandon Kirkwood confederate pride!
Brandon Kirkwood Yankee cats
I
This is the most amazing thing I've ever laid my eyes upon.
The Illuminati Havent laid your eyes on much eh?
The battle of Gettyspurrgh.
Visited here this past summer. The details of the battle scenes are historically accurate. We enjoyed talking to Rebecca as she knows so much about the details of the battle. Will visit again when we are in town.
"Cheers luv, the cat-valry's here!"
Haha lol
lol
Talk about a CATastrophe
Catgratulations
no
Bryce Get out!

Shut up please
The furry civil war
I'm left with asking why.....
Excellent to hear people interested in cats are going in and gaining some understanding of the American Civil War. But the real question is, are people interested in the ACW going in and gaining any understanding of cats?
Captain Destructo There is nothing I love more then the Civil War and Cats!
epic dioramas, I am getting into clay making and I have already fallen in love with this kind of style.
Next Total War title, Total War : Cat Civil War
As an English learner I thought cat was a word for knick-knacks when I read the title..
XD
PhoenixNoor so did i
lol wtf are knick knacks
Just stopped in the museum…it was on my bucket list after seeing this video during Covid quarantine😉
Is there a Mulyses S. Crant?
Awesome work
Y'all deserve more subs.
The WV 1st light Artillery Hill’s C battery was at Gettysburg
1:25 ah she’ll “ CAT-culate ” the numbers
"We really just want to make the Civil War approachable, so they can relate to the history, and have more of a connection with the men and women involved."
Uh, speak for yourself. Some of us, believe it or not, relate to other humans better than cats.
You're weird
People do actually "relate" easier with doing it this way. Because it`s so normal to see portrations of people being murdered in video games and movies, so a couple of figures on a board is not going to make much diefference. While recreating it with cats is not something you`ve seen before, so to assess the situation you create a simulation in your head. Symbolism is easier to get related to, because since it`s you who do the connection through the metaphor it gets more personal.
Saggy Pants Well, Saggy Pangs, your reply is definitely a good "portration" of how much you know what you're talking about.

Que mamon este vato si o no raza
Who else thought they were reading the title wrong?
The cat holding up the flag was so good lol
Proud to say I've been there.
hi from France. I can't to find my words... il's a very very very beautiful work. all my respect!
Amazing!!
I think it is interesting. The replacement of cat to human make us possible to regard history objectively.
When we learn those kind of history, our prejudice or common concept affect to our mind too much.
That's a lit museum fam!
It’s crazy that I live about 35 minutes away from here and never knew about this!
Kitty History!!!
I think this is great fun. Where is this in Gettysburg.
Gettysburg was certainly a CATastrophic battle with terrible casualties incurred on both sides.
"Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight
It must have been something you said"
I want to visit that Gettysburg Civil War[cat] Museum
The music in the beginning is sooooooo good what is the song name
Rebecca is not my kinda person but it’s kinda cool what she does
Man I wish I had that
Lovely to see my home state of good ol jolly Pennsylvania.
Me when i accidently made the human faces to a cat: shit.
i thought the title said that cats made the diorama
very cool
They look like they live with a bunch of cats.
I thought I meant that they took little model cats and filed gruel to look like soldier
Yap..! Great work! 👍 from Indonesia 🇮🇩
The dioramas are beautiful but that is the most random thing I've ever heard of
Brilliant
I need to see Cat-war 2 and 1, but don't forget the Catmerican Catlutionary War
