It’s not unusual to see cats squabble with other cats or dogs. But witnessing a cat having a heated argument with a monkey? Now that’s something you don’t see every day!
In a viral video posted by @wiraalbino on TikTok, a 21-second clip shows a cat subtly but firmly putting a monkey in its place from the safety of a car window. This unlikely showdown has sent social media into a frenzy, leaving viewers both amused and bewildered.
Cat persuasively puts monkey in its place
The video kicks off with a curious monkey sauntering up to the car, probably expecting some free snacks or maybe a friendly face. But what it got instead was a cat with zero tolerance for monkey business.
As the monkey inches closer, the cat, perched inside the car, dramatically sticks its head out of the window like a grumpy grandma ready to scold the neighbourhood kids.
Monkey see, cat yell
What follows is a masterclass in feline indignation. The cat starts howling and meowing louder and louder, making it clear that this car is a no-monkey zone.
The monkey, looking more bewildered than threatened, keeps stepping back, probably wondering what on earth it did to deserve this.
Monkey business? Not on cat’s watch!
Speaking to WeirdKaya, Miezal, the mastermind behind the video, who revealed that this epic standoff took place at Puteri Harbour, Johor. He gave us the lowdown on how this unexpected drama unfolded:
There were a lot of monkeys there, so I stopped to give them some fruit. One monkey climbed onto my car, and my cat, Acan, got angry. He couldn’t handle the monkey being there.
He went on to explain his cat’s fiery temperament: “My cat gets angry quickly when he sees other animals.”
The comment sections have been ablaze with laughter and witty remarks.
One user wrote, “Why are you so angry, cat?”
Another commented, “Wow, you’re fierce.”
And a third added, “He’s got a warrior blood.”
