If you’ve been on the internet in the past couple of weeks, there’s a good chance you’ve seen a viral video depicting a dog’s pure joy when her owner’s boyfriend showed up dressed like her favorite stuffed Gumby toy.
It’s wonderful, it’s adorable and it’s completely understandable that you might want to try this out with your own pet.
But if your pet is a cat, take note that it might not go quite as you hope.
It's a heartwarming video of a man dressing up as his dog's favorite toy. The dog reacts...well, like a dog. He goes absolutely nuts. It's cute, for sure, but how would this work out with a cat?
In fact, they're probably the best thing on the internet. We were pretty excited when we heard that someone was flipping the script on that famous dog prank.
The cat's reaction says it all. It's less, "Oh, hey, my friend came to life," and more "Oh, God, this thing I'm sleeping in told its family." So, is this the greatest cat prank of all time? Not even close. After you watch the video check out the rest of the pranks on the next pages.
It turns out that cats don't really like it when you dress up like their nightmares. Of course, some pranks are more practical...
In the cat's defense, clear barriers don't really exist in the wild. Then again, cats haven't been wild for a few millennia. Stupid cats.
The leading theory was that cats are naturally afraid of snakes, so they freak out when you put a cucumber behind them. We'd say that just about anyone would be terrified by a magically appearing cucumber, but that's just us.
Sure, it's not creative, but you don't really have to be that creative to scare a cat. They're idiots. That's why we love them.
