The clip, posted on Instagram at the end of February, shows the cat holding a dead snake in its mouth while the owner, with a broomstick in her hand, pleads for the feline to release the reptile so she can remove it from the house.

“Check out the toy the cat found,” reads the caption of the video, which has already received over 2.9 million views, as well as more than 97,000 likes and thousands of comments from internet users impressed by the scene.

“I would have definitely left the house,” said one Instagram user. “‘You don’t buy me toys, Márcia, I had to make one myself,'” joked another. “I would have fainted. I don’t know how you’re managing to talk, negotiate, film,” recounted a third internet user.

Although it may seem strange, if your cat brings dead animals to you, this is a way for them to show affection. According to experts from the Spruce Pets website, cats are hunters and often want to share their generosity with the family.

Just like when mother cats teach their kittens how to hunt and eat, when a cat brings you a caught animal, whether it’s alive or dead, it means they consider you part of their family.
