I did not have anything noticeable flying around in my kitchen
then I'd expect it to show up as a bug.
It could be fishing boats
Dust particles brother or small bug.........
I was recording my cat, and ironically, I started recording him because he was acting like he was watching ghosts; i.e. he was staring up at empty space, and meowing at it.

well as seen on the footage it would be too small for you too see but the footage shows it was noticeable through the lens with the lighting available.
Its either dust or a very very small flying insect,

Not a moth but it does show up on footage like a very small bug.
That is fake.
The cat is watching it like it would a laser pen or even cellphone torch beam.
The shape of its trajectory also informs me it is a human hand at work. it might even be some jewellery, like a shaped stone or metal. Yes, more likely a shiny object catching the light.
Another "give-away" is that they are having to shine it at the cat first to get its attention and that is where it starts its trajectory. They deliberately got that cat's attention with whatever they were using to project the beam. It looks rather strong to be just a jewellery or shiny object actually. I think it has to be a small torch light or laser. The rectangular shape may be just a pixel shape of the recorded beam when the video is slowed down. It does not necessarily mean it is that shape. Moving objects obviously look different when pictured still or slowed down. They distort.

It does very much resemble one or the other in my opinion as well.
But I can understand why OP would want it to be an orb due to their pet passing a few months ago.

Actually I think more towards a very small bug with the cats reaction,
if it was a dust particle I doubt your cat would pay attention, meaning it would be very unlikely to perform movement that catch your cats attention and keep it on it like a small bug flying around would.
but a small bug that you cannot see but your cat certainly can and would make your cat keep an eye on it, cats being predators and all even though they are domesticated they still have those instincts and eye sight that would be super human if you could see it from a distance.
chances are if this flew past your face slow enough and caught the right light you would see it as almost transparent orb for a split second as well like the lens has.

Definitely an insect. Dust can move fast on wind currents, but this was purposeful flight. And of course it isn't in focus, the camera is focused on kitty, so it's going to be blurred.
Sometimes you'll see CCTV footage claiming to show a ghost when it's typically an insect actually on the lens, blurred here as well
So no, I'm not trying to imagine that his ghost is visiting me, in a strange vid... Regardless of this vid, his ghost is visiting me, lol.
This is really the last place and time that there'd be bugs flying around... I'm just saying, lol. Bugs can't live in our winters, the landscape is frozen solid, covered in snow and ice.
So outside, it's an absolute wasteland, and there's zero chance of a bug flying in from nature. There are no bugs flying around. No flies, no fruitflies, moths, gnats, mosquitos: Nothing.
I don't know if people know how absolutely lifeless the northeast becomes, during winter. There's literally no life outside.
Who said it flew in from nature? Look your intelligence of being all knowing just makes it impossible to converse with you.
