This mischievous cat might just be the world's worst IT support as she hates the noise of a printer so much she crumples all of the documents.
Grumpy Gemini dislikes the sound so much that she perches on top of the machine in the vain hope of stopping anyone from printing.
The two-year-old long haired tortoiseshell jumps into action as soon as the paper starts coming through the rollers, swatting at it from above.
Stop that! Gemini, a two-year-old long haired tortoiseshell, dislikes the sound so much that she perches on top of the machine in the vain hope of stopping anyone from printing
Having failed to halt its progress, Gemini then jumps down in front, launching her whole body on the sheet to scrunch it up.
Despite being lifted off the paper by mum Meredith DeVere, Gemini goes straight back to her starting position to attack her mum's second attempt.
Dad Quentin, 41, filmed the shenanigans in his office at home in Simi Valley, California, last Monday.
He said: 'Gemini goes nuts for the printer - she doesn't pay attention to anything else, but that sound drives her crazy.
'It took my wife a few attempts to finally finish printing our kids' school work.
'The only reason she could was because Gemini got spooked by our dogs.'
Quentin and Meredith have owned Gemini her whole life, and also have three other cats - Gobi, Mako and Leia.
Quentin added: 'Gemini is the most uptight cat we've ever had.
'She's not keen on being touched and if you try you will feel her claws.
'But we love her, even if she does hate the printer.'
