Cats are known for their curiosity, but one cheeky kitten recently learned that sometimes curiosity can backfire – especially when fish are involved.
In a viral TikTok clip by @aisyahrosli9093, a playful kitten can be seen intently eyeing the fishes swimming in an aquarium. The video, paired with a humorous voiceover suggesting that one of the fish would make a delicious fish sambal, set the perfect stage for some feline mischief.
As the kitten made its move, paw ready to "catch" a quick snack, the tables turned in an unexpected twist – the fish bit back! The startled kitten's wide-eyed reaction instantly melted hearts online, with viewers flooding the comments section with laughter and plenty of "aww" moments.
The hilarious exchange reminds us that not everything goes according to plan, even for our usually stealthy feline friends. In this case, the fish proved it wasn't on the menu after all.
