In a hilarious video on social media, a pet owner captured the cutest footage of his feline bestie watching the game with him.

Every time the man cheered, the feline responded with a boisterous meow. Obviously, the cat didn’t know that their dad was watching a sports game, but they knew he was excited about something. It’s way too cute to see these two hyping each other up!
“When you don’t understand sports or why he’s yelling at the TV but you’re going to match the boy’s energy regardless,” read the text over the footage.
This hilarious video of a cat connecting with their dad over sports has been going viral online. Commenters loved seeing the kitty’s enthusiastic replies to their owner’s cheers.
“Get that cat a jersey immediately,” wrote one user.
Another said, “He’s a little confused but he’s got the spirit.”
A third added, “He’s mirroring you! He’s trying to bond with you by ‘mimicking’ your cheers!”
Catster tells us that these animals do, in fact, have a habit of “mirroring” the people they live with. Often, this means that they have a very close connection with their owners. So, it’s possible that this cat wanted to cheer along with their dad just because they love him! Isn’t that sweet?
It’s amazing how, even though we don’t speak the same language as our pets, we still find ways to understand each other. What a beautiful bond this cat dad has with his furry friend!
