Cats aren't big fans of change. This can be a problem if you go out of town and leave them with a sitter—especially if they aren't a fan of that person. One kitty knows this all too well, and she's not afraid to let her feelings be known (hisses and all)!
In a September 2 TikTok video shared by The Burton Bunch (@uvacase), the gray cat gives her sitter a piece of her mind and she's not holding back. It's so hard not to LOL at this.
The 38-second clip captioned, "My BFFs cat still hates me. Bless her heart," shows the cat's angry conversation with her temporary sitter. Though the woman explains the feline's parents will be home soon, the kitty meows and hisses in response. If we had to guess, she's not saying anything nice!
With more than 25,000 likes, many people are shocked the cat seems to understand the sitter's words.
"The hissing at 'May the Lord have mercy on your soul' is wild," one person. wrote. "The way its responses changed with each of your questions was crazy! That cat knows exactly what you're saying!" another noted. "I was hoping for one last hiss, and the cat delivered," another added.
Many had a lot of feelings over the cat's hissing almost on demand and shared similar stories of their own interactions with angry cats.
"I watched my sister’s cat while she was on a ski trip in the 90s. I’m still scarred, emotionally and physically," one person commented.
"That’s like my son’s cat. Even though I’m the one who found him, he always hisses at me when I go feed him when my son's away. Can’t figure him out, but he loves my son," another shared.
"My cat, when I leave him with my daughter," another said.
Cats really are a treat sometimes. As long as they get everything they want and nothing in their routines changes, ever, they're happy!

How Much Do Cats Understand?
Any pet parent of cats knows that, at times, it really does seem as if they understand our words when we speak to them . According to Catster , cats may understand some words we say, but only in some situations. They typically ignore most of what we say and only pick up a word sporadically when followed by an action or consequence.
For instance, they may recognize their name if it's followed by, say, getting a treat. They don't necessarily recognize it as their name or the context behind it, and they don't understand human language as a whole.
Regardless of whether the cat in the video truly gets what her sitter was saying or not, she took it personally! That's the great thing about cats—they're not afraid to let their feelings be known!
