The star of this online sensation is a fluffy feline, peacefully engaged in a self-grooming session. However, her serene moment ends abruptly as the owner gleefully pokes her with playful persistence. Initially, the cat responds with irritation, attempting to nip at the intruding fingers with swift, calculated movements. It is a classic feline warning of “Enough is enough.”
Despite the initial resistance, the owner continues, seemingly unfazed by the cat’s half-hearted attempts at discouragement.

While our feline friends may not always seek our attention, they do appreciate the companionship — even if it comes with a side of playful annoyance.
