That's awesome.
“The Turkey Trot, Grizzly Bear and Other Naughty Diversions”

“Starting as if in the good old-fashioned Two-Step, the dancers suddenly let go hands, the man slipping behind his fair companion, there is a little step and a hop, something like a turkey might be expected to do, then a fresh grip around the waist of the young lady, the man snuggles up ever so closely behind her and they hop, skip and jump and half run along.”

Two points:

I noticed that the feet seemed to slip a fair bit, even though they were made of rubber. I suspect that there are a lot of subtleties to the articulation and surface nature of paws, giving a real cat much more traction...

Also, it was clearly externally powered. I suspect with current battery of fuel cell technologies, there would be major weight/range issues and trade-offs in a truly autonomous model.
