The way that animals think is a crazy and sometimes unbelievable thing. Animals have a good sense and they are typically caregivers, especially if they are female animals.

This pet owner just wanted a cute picture, when something unexpected happened. We've all tried to be awesome pet owners and do something cute for our animals or maybe catch a picture of them doing something cute.

I don't think any of us were ready for what happened next when she brought home a plushie that looked pretty much identical to her cat. The cat's instinct kicked in and she was totally freaked out.

We can imagine that cats and other animals don't really have a sense of what is real and what isn't. What we know to be a fake stuffed animal, might look like a real thing to them.

Animals tend to try to play with stuffed toys as if they are alive and well. Realizing that, this scenario doesn't seem as crazy as it once did.

This cat owner thought it would be great to bring home a plushie that looked like her cat just to get a cute picture of the cat with the plushie, but her cat had other ideas.

Let's look into this story to see what exactly happened when the cat saw this plushie.

Alright so here's the story..

Some extra edits and a summary of the situation for context.

Imagine if the cat was on Reddit and what their side of the story would be.

You are not the asshole.

Thoughts from the cat, possibly?

Cat tax was paid and the picture was uploaded for all to see.

People are really adamant about seeing the picture.

I mean, I know I'd be a little freaked out.

Definitely existential crisis.

People are coming out and saying that their animals have a similar reaction to plushies and other things. Interesting.

Another situation where it is a similar story as OP.

Animals are so weird sometimes.

People are telling OP how their animals react to situations like this just to see if it is indeed normal.

The opposite scenario.

I feel sorry for the poor cat too.

Definitely a little weird since cats have amazing senses.

Possibly the thoughts that went through this cat's head.

"You've gone from a monster to a God." Fair enough plan.

Cat's see evil? Could it possibly be?

Oh no, a voodoo doll cat plushie?

Other pet owners who's animals do the same.

Another person saying cats are very in tune with senses so it is weird how the cat reacted.

Animals are a little weird but even if the cat did think that was a little dead cat, who can blame her? Honestly, I think it might be a little weird.

People do have a point in saying that cats have good senses so not sure why she couldn't determine that it was a plushie, not a real cat.
