In a now-viral TikTok clip, a spicy orange cat named Apollo is caught launching a flurry of swipes at what he clearly believes is a new challenger in the household.
The unsuspecting enemy? A tea towel printed with the face of another orange cat.


Cat versus towel
For this cat, this wasn’t just a bit of cloth. It was a threat to his turf. And as far as he’s concerned, there’s a strict two-orange-cat limit under this roof and this flat feline imposter had crossed the line.
With a dramatic paw smack and some serious attitude, the ginger cat made his feelings clear: Not today, towel cat. Not in my house.
Only two gingers in this house
Viewers were in hysterics over the dramatic showdown. One commented, “Cat said u not gonna mock me in my own house,” while another added, “How are they so smart and so daft at the same time?”
Whether it’s rivalry or just feline flair, this adorable feline has reminded us all who really rules the kitchen.
