The nature of a cat is to hunt, so it’s always fun to play with toys that your kitty will chase and attack.
Normally, a toy mouse or some feathers on the end of a stick would be a cat’s game of choice, but these owners decided to play a different kind of game with their fur babies: dominoes.
The video posted onto YouTube by Cat Navi Desk has since gone viral with over 11 million views, and it’s so adorable that we can totally see why!
These two cats appear to be local celebrities in their home country of Japan, and we just can’t get enough of their cute videos and pictures!
The video begins with a brown tabby cat knocking down a single domino. There is a whole line of dominoes set up, and when the first domino falls down, it creates a whole domino effect, which seems to be very interesting for the two kitties.
So interesting, in fact, that this black and white cutie has to get out of his cozy basket to go and investigate.
There are lots of things moving without his permission, and it’s slightly annoying. He must put a stop to it.
The brown tabby cat isn’t as proactive as his friend. The dominoes knock down a ball that rolls slowly toward him. However, he’s too nervous to take action, and he instead stares at the ball with a slightly bemused expression.
The ball then gets to the bottom of the setup and knocks down a domino. The domino effect then begins again.
The dominoes then reach a tray, which seems to be holding something very tasty for this kitty. He licks up his treat happily, and there’s a tense moment when it looks like his little head isn’t going to touch the domino to his right to start the chain again.
Fortunately, the little guy’s head does eventually hit the required domino, and then sequence can continue.
We now reach the next obstacle. This time, it appears to be just a normal wooden box. However, when the clever kitty taps a white button with his paw, a model cat slowly appears from the box and knocks down the next set of dominoes.
This little guy doesn’t know whether he should be watching the scary cat in the box or following the trail of the dominoes!
Hilariously, the dominoes then cause a toy car to drive toward another stack of dominoes, and our little brown friend makes another appearance.
He has the important job of hitting the bell, and he does it brilliantly. What a clever kitty.
The dominoes cause a ball to roll down a contraption, which is most annoying to this little kitty. The poor guy just wants a break from all of these dominoes.
He paws at the ball in the dish, and almost puts a stop to things! But before he has the chance to maneuver the ball out of the dish, it falls through the hole and the dominoes begin to fall again.
In a force to be reckoned with, both cats then rally together to watch the final lot of dominoes fall.
Little do they know that this game of dominoes is going to have the most purrfect ending.
It’s dinner time!
The last domino falls and hits a bell, which causes a portion of tasty treats to fall into each kitty’s bowl.
It turns out an annoying game of dominoes is very much worth it when there’s food at the end.
