The amusing clip, shared on YouTube, shows a cat looking at its own reflection. Quickly, the feline stands up and starts fighting its own image in the mirror to the tune of Eye of the Tiger by the band Survivor, an iconic song from the movie Rocky III.
The video, posted five years ago, has already received over 56,000 views, in addition to more than 1,000 likes and numerous comments from internet users who enjoyed the fighting spirit of the feline.
“The cutest thing I’ve seen all year,” said a YouTube user. “He’s getting ready for the next fight,” said another. “That’s me every time I look in the mirror and see my face,” joked a third internet user.
According to experts from the site The Spruce Pets, cats’ reactions to mirrors can be quite varied. Some cats completely ignore the kitty in the reflection, while others become curious, but some cats may show aggressive or fearful behavior upon seeing their reflection.
According to them, if your cat becomes aggressive or extremely frightened by its own reflection, you can try reintroducing mirrors using positive reinforcement (like treats) so that they learn that their reflection is not a threat.
However, if this does not work, it may be necessary to remove all reflective surfaces that are at your cat’s level or hang a cloth over the mirrors so your cat no longer sees its reflection. This content was created with the help of AI and reviewed by the editorial team.
