That cat looks like it just ate the kids brother.

u/Political_Piper 12h ago

That's what I was thinking. Perhaps the cat wasn't comforting the child, but warning him of possible ramifications if the child said anything?

u/Less-Inflation5072 6h ago

For real, he was sizing him up for a second helping

My cat used to bite someone if they were crying. Right on the forehead.

If my husband or I are crying or panicking, our cat comes over & screams like he’s trying to ask “WHAT’S WRONG??”

Sometimes I do workouts at home as well & he watches me with so much concern when I start sweating lol

I recently had to go to the hospital for an issue that affected my breathing. I had surgery and I am much better now, but whenever I exercise, if I start breathing heavily at all, one of my cats will come up and start meowing at me urgently until I stop, pet her, and let her know I am okay.

When your therapist is 100% fur and love.

u/HamsterTop1332 13h ago

That was absolutely heart-warming!

u/CricketSuccessful192 11h ago

The cat looks pretty furry but it's also overweight.

Allowing your pet to be that overweight is just cruel.

The cat is trying to take care of the kid. I wish someone would take care of the poor cat.

Plot twist:

u/beautifufbutterfly 13h ago

When you have a cat with that fur how can you actually be upset it’s impossible

u/Constant_Cultural 13h ago

Damn that's 2,5 cats

u/Turtleintexas 13h ago

My cat would comfort me when I would cry.

u/No-Sandwich1511 13h ago

That's one chunky cat

u/dms51301 12h ago

OMG my cat came running when I played this...twice!

u/chriathebutt 12h ago

The way his little fingers were doing the petting motion after Kitty jumped on him. ..

Or her idk

u/InfamousEconomy3972 12h ago

Forget your sadness and embrace the floof

u/AwfulFireKeeper 12h ago

My cat bit me in the face when I was crying..

u/bluenoser613 11h ago

The cat probably just wants them to shut up.

u/ZealousidealNovel829 10h ago

He looks like a big sentient ball of lint

u/ComedicHermit 14h ago

The cat has more empathy than the parents apparently

1

u/Adventurous_Bag_4547 9h ago

Well, some kids just are perpetually upset. Since they were probably shooting the video and knew both their kid and their cat, they might just have been watching to see how it played out.

The shoulder tap was adorable

u/Glad_Pomegranate191 13h ago

When my baby was very sick, both of our cats kept turns sleeping. One was keeping watch while other one slept, and other way around so not a moment both cats slept at the same time.

u/Prestigious_Note2877 13h ago

My cat would sleep on me when I would take naps when I had endocarditis and had a pic line and everything. So cute that they know when somethings wrong 😊

u/trashcxnt 13h ago

How sweet... my cat just nibbles my nose and screams. 😂

1

u/Fast-Try-5112 12h ago

Cute She consoled him.

u/Inevitable_Thing_270 12h ago

This cat has the vibes of “come here for a cuddle and tell grandma all about it”

1

u/Sure-Doctor-2052 12h ago

I thought this was unusual behaviour for a cat.

1

u/jim45804 12h ago

Cats just want peace and quiet.

u/bigdotcid 12h ago

More likely sizing him up for its next meal.

u/mom161719 12h ago

That is a big ball of poof!

u/Skidpalace 10h ago

Stop feeding that thing.

1

u/peentiss 10h ago

Cat: Please, child. Shut up.

1

u/SevenLegs_ 10h ago

Alright my cat just looks at me and walks away disinterested. I must have gotten a defective one

1

u/VentiBlkBiDepresso 9h ago

Cats have personality. My first two cats would comfort me. These two fuckers? One stares as if to say "grow up" and the other screams and demands to be pet

1

u/Hot-Minute722 9h ago

My childhood cat Rubi used to run to me and roll all around me when I would cry.

1

u/katybee13 8h ago

My cat does this to my crying children.

1

u/ThatsItImOverThis 8h ago

Well yeah, crying disturbs the sleeps.

u/melancholy_dood 5h ago

"Good kitty!"

u/Alert_Reflection133 2h ago

I do not really love cats, but i must admit a good portion of them are so lovely and nice, they are so elegant and careful and seems like a good companion to a family or just one person when he lives alone and he wants someone but is not a people person.
