A very scaredy cat! Tiny kitten is terrified by its own reflection (VIDEO)

This tiny ginger kitten looks set to be a real scaredy cat when he grows up after being filmed in a hilarious video being frightened of his own reflection.

The frightened feline can be seen strutting across a ledge when he catches sight of himself in a mirror.

Although startled, the cat plucks up the courage to move in for a closer look and then repeatedly attempts to charge down his opponent

But the reflection in the mirror won't back down, and after six or seven charges at the mirror, the defeated kitten begins to back away with its tail between its legs eventually falling off the ledge and landing on the floor with a bump.

Luckily, the star of the clip, which has been viewed more than 5,000 times so far, was left relatively unscathed by the confrontation.
