Cats are weird. From sitting in boxes that are way too small to launching 3 a.m. parkour sessions, they’re masters of making us question their logic.
But one oyen (orange tabby cat) on TikTok has taken things to another level—by sniffing a man’s butt like it’s his new favourite hobby.
Yes, you read that right.
The video shows the oyen in deep concentration, sniffing the man’s butt (pants on, don’t worry) as if trying to solve a mystery.
The man, visibly aware of the odd behaviour, decided to simply brush it off and focus on his phone instead.
‘He’s just obsessed with his “dad”‘
Speaking to WeirdKaya, Syifa, the woman behind the video, spilled the tea (or should we say, the sweat?).
“That’s my husband in the video,” she said.
“He’d just come back from jogging and futsal. He was soaked in sweat AND rain, so… you can imagine the smell. Even we were confused when Kechik, our cat, started sniffing him like that.”
She added that Kechik, their mischievous male cat, has always been a daddy’s boy.
“He knows my husband’s footsteps from outside, meows when called, and honestly, he’s just obsessed with his dad.”
And after the big sniff?
“He just went back to sleep like nothing happened.”
Netizens Share Their Cat Stories
As expected, the video left netizens rolling with laughter, and many chimed in with their own hilarious cat stories:
“As an experienced cat owner, I’m confident this guy must’ve stopped at a mamak stall after futsal. Those chairs always have cats sleeping on them before anyone sits down. Oyen’s just curious because his owner brought home another cat’s scent!”
“That’s exactly what my cat loves too. My husband comes home from the gym, puts his gym clothes in the laundry basket, and that’s when my cat jumps in and just sits there. I don’t get it.”
“My cat loves sniffing my dad’s feet when he gets back from work!”
“My cat’s even crazier. He goes straight for my armpit!”
