At Different Moments in the Clip:
• His bright white face suddenly appears.
• His little white paws peek out.
• He disappears dramatically behind the chair.
• Everyone watching immediately loses their minds.
The kitty's markings are so oddly perfect that commenters became deeply distracted by one extremely specific detail: his missing "socks."
People in the Comments Were Absolutely Cracking Up:
• "I've never seen a cat without socks."
• "His hands are inside his sleeves."
• "Can you please take him to the tailor? His sleeves are way too long on his tuxedo."
• "I love how we're all shocked that he doesn't have his socks on."
• "I've never seen a mittenless cat in my life."
Honestly, the "mittenless cat" comment completely took me out because now he really does look like a tiny Victorian child whose coat sleeves are too long.
And the way he slowly pops up behind the chair somehow makes the whole thing feel even more cartoonish.
