There have been numerous occasions where cats and other pets have attracted tens of thousands if not millions of views and interactions online.
Earlier in July, a cat that hilariously clung to her canine friend went viral on the social media platform TikTok.

When the owners went to grab the cat, she held onto Luna's fur and was not willing to move, resulting in hilarious footage.
