Today’s article may resonate with those who have friends that own cats. After all, the experiences of having a cat versus not having one can be vastly different. For instance, have you ever felt that cats are everywhere? One moment they are in the room, then suddenly they appear in the hallway, and before you know it, they are back in the living room or right by your feet. You might even think, "Did I just step on a cat?"
The user @tanaka_fujimoto illustrated this experience perfectly. To him, it feels like being watched; one moment a cat is in the room, and the next, it’s right beside you while you’re using your computer. You walk past and see a cat, only to find another one moments later, making it feel like you are under surveillance—quite unnerving! Although @tanaka_fujimoto has more than one cat at home, it often feels like they are observing him wherever he goes. His family even teases him about his mental state, suggesting he should spend less time cooped up in his room and more time outside in the sun.
@tanaka_fujimoto is an artist who specializes in cat illustrations and frequently shares his work on Twitter. His creations often reflect everyday life and are characterized by a cute art style that resonates with many viewers. Each time he releases a short comic or illustration, it tends to garner significant attention from online users. Many people relate to his experiences; for example, when spending time at home with their cats, no matter how they sit, cats always seem to find their way onto their laps for a nap.
Recently, one of his illustrations gained immense popularity among netizens. It depicted the feeling of thinking you stepped on a cat and received over 2.1 million views! Many users shared similar experiences. Typically, these situations arise when you’re extremely tired and a bit distracted. You might feel something furry by your feet; if you're barefoot at that moment, the sensation becomes even more pronounced. Suddenly, a dreadful thought crosses your mind: “Did I just step on a cat?” You quickly snap back to reality and instinctively pull your foot away, ready to apologize to the cat—only to discover that what you touched was actually a fluffy indoor slipper.
This article aims to share these relatable experiences. I wonder if anyone watching has had similar moments—especially those who have owned cats?
