Cat’s Hilarious Reaction to Owner’s Fainting Test Goes Viral

Quick Smiles:

• Cat owner’s fainting test leaves TikTok viewers in stitches.
• Feline’s reaction proves independent stereotype right.
• Cats express love in their own unique ways.

A delightful video capturing a cat owner’s experiment with her pet has taken the internet by storm, leaving viewers chuckling at the feline’s classic response.

Cats often carry the reputation of being self-reliant and indifferent, a stereotype that TikTok user @alofgarden decided to explore with her orange tabby.

In a video clip, which has gathered nearly 7 million views, the owner set her camera on the ground and dramatically pretended to faint as her cat sauntered by.

The timing was impeccable: as she collapsed to the floor, her cat paused, turning his head to investigate.

However, upon realizing it was his owner on the ground, he nonchalantly continued his stroll, completely unfazed.

This reaction confirmed to the owner that she was merely a “human roommate in his kingdom.”

As she noted, the cat’s behavior came as “no surprises.”

TikTok viewers were equally unsurprised by the feline’s indifference, which perfectly exemplified the typical cat demeanor.

“He almost cared, almost,” one user observed, while another humorously added: “Be grateful the cat wasted an actual second to look before walking away.”

Another comment noted: “Bro only flinched to make sure his own safety wasn’t in jeopardy.”

Some speculated on the cat’s thoughts: “She better get up before mealtime” and “She’ll be fine.”

While many perceive cats as only caring for their humans when they need something, like food or outdoor access, felines do have a tender side.

Cats express affection through subtle gestures like slow blinking, purring, and kneading.

They also demonstrate trust by trailing their humans from room to room.

Studies have indicated that cats form attachments to their owners similar to the bonds babies have with their parents.

Kittens, in particular, showed distress when their caregivers left and joy upon their return.
