Cope Cat Being Petted

Cope

A sleepy brown-and-white cat lies in a basket while a person repeatedly pets and gently presses its head, making its ears flatten. The caption “Cope” turns the cat’s resigned, mildly annoyed expression into a reaction to accepting an unpleasant situation. The clip is useful as a sarcastic response when someone has to endure something they dislike; the repetitive sound effect reinforces the mockingly soothing joke.
