The video begins with Nero comfortably asleep, his face sticking out just enough to prevent the door from closing.

The owner decides to gently wake Nero by, of course, lightly poking his butt.

Nero, slightly confused and still sleepy, begins to scurry around, trying to make sense of his sudden wake-up call.

Viewers haven’t seen a frog being woken up before, so the scene proved pretty popular.
