Cat's First Time Seeing A Tortoise Is A Real-Life Comedy Skit

April 8, 2025

Some moments are just too perfectly funny to script—like a cat meeting a tortoise for the first time.

A viral TikTok video shows Chonk, a very expressive orange cat, absolutely baffled by a slow-moving tortoise. As the shelled creature crawls toward him, Chonk freezes, eyes wide, clearly questioning everything he thought he knew about the world.

“Never in my nine lives…” you can almost hear him thinking.

The internet, of course, delivered with some hilarious commentary.

One user wrote, “His timbers have been shivered,” while another added, “He was trying to use ALL of his orange cat braincells to understand.”
