Asher is a grey and white cat who has grown up with dogs and seemingly learned a few things from them.
When Asher met Waffles
His family recently shared the moment Asher met the family's new kitten, Waffles.
The clip shows Asher using his litter box when he first sees the tiny newcomer. After an initial tense moment, the two-year-old cat jumped and barked, surprising everyone.
Asher, who grew up alongside a Chihuahua named Emma and a Husky-Basenji mix named Ada Belle, had evidently picked up some canine habits. The family hoped Waffles would be a playful companion for Asher, allowing their older cat, Whitaker, to enjoy some peace.
Barking cat
Katie, their owner, shared the video of Asher and Waffles meeting, explaining that Asher's unexpected barking left the family in stitches.
TikTok users reacted with amusement, with some commenting on the "full body bark" and others joking about Asher's "bilingual" skills. One user joked that Asher was simply "breaking in" the new kitten.
Here's the clip, appropriately captioned "Welllll that was unexpected":
Despite the comical start, Asher and Waffles quickly bonded, with Katie sharing in a follow-up video that the two now happily play, snuggle, and groom each other.
