Mornings look very different when you share your home with an enthusiastic feline, and a now-viral Instagram video proves it in the cutest way possible. A fluffy Ragdoll cat named George has captured hearts online after showing off his unmistakable “bunny hops” the moment his day begins.
Cat couldn’t be more excited to start the day in adorable Instagram video
The clip, shared by the popular Instagram account @sirgeorge, opens with George bursting into motion almost as soon as he’s awake. Instead of calmly stretching or strolling into the day, the blue-eyed Ragdoll launches into energetic hops that look more like a rabbit than a cat. His movements bounce with excitement as he darts forward, clearly ready for whatever the morning brings, most likely breakfast.
The caption reads, “Somebody was very excited to start their day. Spoiler alert: it wasn’t me,” perfectly filling the humorous gap between George’s enthusiasm and his owner’s sleepy mood. George’s hopping routine highlights his excitement. It also showcases his expressive personality. Viewers quickly picked up on the message: this cat is awake, motivated, and absolutely ready to be fed.
Fans flooded the comments with relatable reactions. One viewer joked, “Time for breakfast, Mom! George is starving!” while another wrote, “The magical floof wishes you a good morning and now needs his breakfast, I’m sure.” Others pointed out his dramatic personality shifts, with one comment reading, “Love George’s split personalities.” Another summed it up bluntly: “George woke up and chose violence.”
The video was posted by @sirgeorge, an Instagram account dedicated to George and his sister, Lady Eleanor.
