A cat named Mr. Puss — also known as Pancake Face — just turned a regular car ride into a main character moment in this beautiful Instagram video from @misterrpuss. In the clip, the Siberian Forest Cat posts up at the open car window as if he paid for the front-row seat. He is strapped into a harness, with paws braced on the door, his fluffy cheeks and whiskers catching the breeze, making the best of his straight-out-of-a-movie moment.
Cat can’t get enough of car ride in adorable video
The owner explains in the onscreen text, “Every time the window opens he becomes the main character,” while another line adds, “Wind in his face, ears flying, zero worries.” And that’s exactly what it looks like. In the video, Mr. Puss squints into the fresh air with the calmness of a saint — except he is a cat who is probably living his best life during the car ride.
The caption anticipates, “This Is Gonna Break His Heart When We Close It?,” and honestly, you can feel that looming tragedy through the screen. Mr. Puss looks completely locked in. He soaks up every sight and sound like it were the best part of his day.
Cats don’t always love car rides, but some do surprisingly well when they feel safe and in control. Besides, a cracked window can turn the whole experience into a sensory buffet with new smells and moving air. For a seemingly confident and curious cat like Mr. Puss, it is basically a portable window perch.
Viewers couldn’t handle the cuteness. One commenter declared, “I’d take him everywhere. This is so cute. No closing windows,” while another added, “Man if I saw him while driving past, it would make my day!”
A third user remarked on the “main character” claim, writing, “What do mean by he becomes? He is.” And for anyone who loved the cat’s serene face, you are not alone, as a fan wrote, “Look at that cutie patootie squishy face! I cannot!”
