If you were wondering if the dudes in Vancouver's Sweetheart were cat people or dog people, that question will be inconclusively answered by their feline-friendly new video for "David Bowie Is Dead."

The strange new clip shows singer Marty Zylstra breaking up with a girlfriend before sparking up a romance with his, uh, cat. They hold hands and go on dinner dates, and things get a little weird when they disappear into a bedroom with a trail of clothes behind them. As for the song, it's a relentlessly upbeat number that name checks the Thin White Duke over a guitar-heavy power-pop arrangement.

The clip will hit iTunes in mid-December. The song appears on the prior EP XOXOX.
