A black cat named Yanno has captured the internet’s heart after a hilarious video showed his quiet yet relatable reaction to being dressed up for his birthday celebration. The footage, posted by his pet mom Angela (@angelamakiya), highlights the cat’s dramatic display of discontent in a special birthday outfit, striking a chord with cat owners everywhere who know the struggle of dressing up their furry companions.
As the only cat in the household, Yanno’s birthday is clearly a big event, with his mom going all out to make the day special—complete with treats, a party, and of course, a costume. However, it’s clear from the video that Yanno isn’t thrilled with the attention. His unamused expression, coupled with his plaintive meow, gave the impression that he was silently pleading for help in his birthday attire.
Angela joked in the comments, “He does like his outfit, but he’s just acting like an Aries,” adding a playful touch to the situation. However, the cat’s unblinking stare and reluctance to move led some viewers to believe he was trapped in another dimension, while others speculated he might be trying to endure the celebration unscathed.
In fact, one commenter noted, “I’ve seen five videos for his birthday, and he has not blinked ONCE.” Another added, “7th video I’ve seen. Blink if you’re ok, Lil bro.” Despite the amusing reactions, follow-up videos showed Yanno in his more comfortable, talkative state, dispelling any concerns that he didn’t appreciate the love his mom showered on him.
Yanno’s mom, who clearly shares a deep bond with her cat, goes the extra mile to ensure he’s always looking his best, even scheduling professional portraits with matching outfits. Despite his apparent displeasure with the birthday celebrations, Yanno is a true champ for indulging his mom’s efforts.
For now, the little black cat is off the hook until next year—when the birthday antics will surely begin again!
