OMG, that was amazing!  First I thought it was another link to that
stupid Bonsai cat thing from years ago, but I clicked anyway.  But no,
this cat gets into the bottle all on it's own and then gets out again.
Mind you, it looks like a fairly wide-mouthed bottle.  But still!

Did you notice the date on the video? Just over 15 years ago, I wonder if
that cat is still around.

Amazing! You have to see it to believe it.

What a remarkable feline! I was wondering how the poor thing would
scrabble its way out again, but it didn't seem to have a problem...

Tyche would love it in that bottle.  Of course, Tyche is so fat, she'd
get stuck halfway through.

(I thought the owner would have to break the bottle to get kitty out,
but no....They really are remarkable.)

I noticed that the hoomin put some kind of treat in the bottle to
entice the cat inside.  Although not quite this extreme, I remember
always playing this kind of game with Betty, where I would place a
treat in a hard to reach spot, like under the bookshelf, or under a
cushion, and Betty would use her paws and tongue to get it.

It was like a daily or weekly Easter egg hunt.  I'd rattle a can or
bag of treats, and let her watch as I carefully placed a treat
somewhere, and then she'd try to get it.  If it was too easy, I'd pick
a harder spot.  If it was too hard, I'd reach in front of her and
readjust the location of the treat so that she could reach it better.

I thought I was the only person to do this.  I used to do it for my RB dog.
Pollyanna.  She was very clever at it so it was no good letting her see
where I put the treats, I had to shut her in the kitchen while I hid small
treaties under rugs, under sofa cushions, inside a shoe, on tne windowsill
etc.
She absolutely loved this game - we'd play it about once a week.  As soon as
I opened the kitchen door she would hurtle in and be like a vacuum cleaner
as she applied her nose to every available surface in her hunt.  She always
found every one.
My cats won't play games like this.   They just prefer to do their own
thing.

Dennis does this with Vino.  Hides treats in all sorts of places, then
Vino goes around and sniffs them out.  It was a hoot in Thailand, where
we always had about 3 different fans on, blowing the air around.  Made
sniffing treats out a bit more of a challenge!
We also give verbal instructions to Vino on where the treats were
hidden.  Trying to see how much he understands.  When he goes straight
to the spot we are describing, we congratulate ourselves on raising the
smartest cat in the world.  When he stares blankly at us and doesn't
find the treat for days, we each blame the other for going wrong in the
raising of our fur-child ;-)
