Stray Cat Finally Finds Food

A stray cat crying after finally finding some food

A ginger-and-white stray cat peeks around a dark container, appearing to cry with huge glossy tears after finding food. The exaggerated sadness turns the cat’s relief and vulnerability into a reaction meme for moments of overwhelming emotion or finally getting something badly needed. Mitski’s “I Bet on Losing Dogs” plays underneath, adding a mournful indie-rock atmosphere that makes the joke feel melodramatic and bittersweet.

My baby, my baby, you're my baby, say it to me. Baby, my baby, tell your baby.
