As you go about your business today, do spare a thought for our old mate Henri the existential cat, who's really had enough of all this Halloween nonsense. Honestly - the whole thing gets right on his whiskers.
"This is not a happy time of year for a black cat who does not suffer fools," he muses, in his latest artfully shot video.
Gosh - doesn't time fly when you're being all mournful and introspective? We've just realised it's now a whole four months since Henri went to the vet's.
Anyway, want more cat-based entertainment while you're here? Allow us to present our 30 cat videos under 30 seconds long...
