Was i the only one that counted the hops to make sure they matched the title?

[–]VelosiT 2 points3 points ago

I came here to ask the same question.

[–]malignant_humor 10 points11 points ago

Upvote for 7 Hop's in the title and the cat actually hopping 7 times.

[–]jiblet84[S] 7 points8 points ago

Yay! Someone noticed! :)

[–]libertango 2 points3 points ago

Cat, you are drunk. Go home.

[–]elzadra1 15 points16 points ago

Kitty Gangnam style!

dog: dafuq?

[–]klousGT 3 points4 points ago

It makes the cat look bigger by showing its body to the aggressor, while also keeping it's eye toward the aggressor if a sudden escape is needed.

[–]mtbmike 6 points7 points ago

Agreed. I gave seen small men use this tactic in street fights.

I just pictured a little person hopping along on all fours, saying "Put 'em up! Put 'em UP!"

I read that in the Cowardly Lion's voice.

Gamboling gato!

[–]kristin57 0 points1 point ago

Why do cats do this?

[–]Barchen 0 points1 point ago

I have never done any research but I've always just assumed it's their version of making themselves look bigger.

[–]kt00na 3 points4 points ago

Puffing out their fur, arching the back, and presenting their side all make them look bigger. So you are correct, sir and/or madam.

Muffin Chops.

[–]rville 1 point2 points ago

But the "boop!" is missing :(. It's just not the same without it.

[–]nilgiri 0 points1 point ago

the dog doesn't give a hopping fuck

[–]thebeattakesme 0 points1 point ago

kind of reminds me of the cat in that computer game where the mouse has to get cheese by moving blocks around....anyone?...

[–]Kogitsune 0 points1 point ago

That sounds really familiar, but I can't think of what that might've been called.

[–]sugarpill420 0 points1 point ago

Anyone have the video?

[–]AnotherHumanBeing 1 point2 points ago

Aww best friends forever :3

[–]GeneralTapioca 0 points1 point ago

I awwwwwed out loud. Kitty wants to play!

For the non-cat folks here: This is the feline equivalent to a canine play bow. He's trying to get the dog to chase him, and then he'll chase the dog while looking ferocious.

[–]IhateToronto 0 points1 point ago

I can imagine the next moment is the dog looking back at us, "What's wrong with that thing??"

[–]witty_user_ID 1 point2 points ago

I was expecting cute fluffy bunny - should've known better. Damn you reddit - I'm a dog person!

[–]aaffddssaa 0 points1 point ago

Damn you reddit - I'm a dog person!

[–]6chan -3 points-2 points ago

The poowa kitteh is limping :(

[–]sugarpill420 0 points1 point ago

I don't think you know what limping is...

[–]6chan -1 points0 points ago

I'll have you know that I've been limping all my life, I damn well know what limping is.

[–]sugarpill420 0 points1 point ago

Well if you think that cat was limping then you must be hopping.
