The short clip, shared by user @blooberrybaby, features 11-month-old British Shorthair Bloo sitting patiently on a bed, her wide eyes full of anticipation.
A simple text overlay reads: "This is your reminder that no matter how tired you are, your cat waits all day to spend time with you."
Emotional response
Since its upload last week, the video has amassed over 1.6 million views and nearly 280,000 likes.
Commenters flooded the post with emotional reactions. "I don't even have a cat, and this made me cry," admitted one user, while another shared their grief: "My cat passed away recently. I wish I'd spent more time with her when I had the chance."
Attention seeker
Some added a touch of humour, noting cats' knack for demanding attention at inconvenient times.
"Mine sleeps all day but suddenly wants to play when I'm ready for bed," joked a viewer.
The owner's caption, "Of course I'll play with you," only highlights the deep bond between pets and their humans. Hopefully for Bloo, the wait was worth it.
