Not only are Pallas cats avid hunters, but they're also great at visual comedy

I love how this cat simultaneously looks adorable and like a hungover homeless guy.

This is legendary footage. I remember seeing a documentary about this clip, the camera was stationed in the Himalayas intended to capture footage of snow leopards and this was a total surprise for the researchers who never thought Manul cats ranged that far or high up.

This cat's comedic timing is better than humans I've met.

The way it trots over and then peeks up from below the camera is perfect, what an amazing cat

The way the cat slowly creeps up onto the camera and then slowly descends back is probably the most funniest thing I have ever seen.

He looks like the Wizard who lives in the mountains that you have to go meet to continue the campaign. 🧙‍♂️

The comedy descent, whilst looking contemplative yet furious, was the best bit.

I was not expecting this to be as hilarious as it actually was. That cat has epic comedy timing.

I’m aware that they almost always look grumpy, however it looks like it’s offended by the camera 😂

This cat is so round and fluffy, in front view it looks like a walking pebble

The way the cat looks at the camera is so adorable! 🥰

That little face peeking into the camera is so funny 😁

I love how this cat always looks a little bit mentally unstable.

I love him and his face! I hope he’s still out there and happy and healthy

Hilarious, the expression on his face is totally mental, yet cute at the same time. Comedy gold. Smart little critter.

They permanently look like they’re super grumpy and dishevelled because you just woke them up. So cute

The way it slowy peak it’s head to the camera and descending had me genuinely giggling

It's everything, but it's especially the way he pulls his head so slowly out of shot at the end!

Smart cat noticed the camera and knew he was being watched.

His head slowly comes up...he stares into the camera....and his head goes slowly back down....this cat's got great comic timing. I've never laughed so hard..!!

This cat has more comedic talent than half of the comedians and Hollywood writers I have ever seen/known.

I'm a little disappointed that this cat did not knock the camera over.

The way he ducks down after looking into the camera kills me every time.😂

So smart, he even figured out how to turn the camera off because it was infringing on his privacy

Adorable little guy.... so cute the way he stealths over to the camera.

The visual comedy in this is better than some multi million dollar movies

So many emotions in such a short video. Such hilarity at the beginning, and by the end of it it looks at the camera like a velociraptor.

Sometimes, I think animals know when they are being watched, even when its a camera..

I love how his left eye squints a little bit, like an old guy who's had it up to HERE with those kids always coming into his yard.

Why does this cat look like my middle-aged neighbor when he comes to get the newspaper in the mornings…

This is my favourite video on the internet.

The only being in the universe who decided to *confront the cameraman* True legend.

0:19 That feel when gram gram goes on a Zoom call for the first time lol.

Thank you for uploading this on KZfaq! The way it disappears and then reappears right in front of the camera was really funny.

I love the way cats peek at things with one eye. My cat peeks half her face from behind a wall to stare at me. The way he came up to the camera and then left was hysterical 😂

Fun fact, these cats are native to the Asian steppe. For that reason, they have developed a different hunting method: they peer over rocks and mounds instead of creeping through trees and underbrush. That's why their ears are always back and why they slink instead of walk. It is jokingly referred to as the Cheshire Cat--because some people believe it may have been the real-life inspiration for Lewis Carrol's fictional feline because of how wonky it acts.

this is the absolute cutest thing I've ever seen. Thank you for sharing this, albeit short, video

I can’t remember a single time when I’ve wanted a specific cat that “I CAN’T HAVE ONE!”😫😩🥺😥😭 This breed of cat is absolutely one-of-a-kind, “mysterious,” certainly all-wild all the time, very curious, beautifully adapted for life in the frozen landscapes they inhabit and VERY secretive! I love them very much. I do worry a lot that, now the world is aware of these stealthy creatures, they’ll be number one on the endangered list very soon!! People see these unusual cats and, of course, those with the money will soon have some living in Beverly Hills and the surrounding area in places where what used to be a person now lives like the rules no longer apply to them! Such a tragedy lining up to happen!

It's like a cat but it's always grumpy. And round of course

When his eyes got all close to the camera I couldn't stop laughing 😹😹😹😹

With the right music, you can make this clip horrifying

I'd never heard of this species before I saw this video years ago. Whenever I need a pick me up I come back and watch this again, it never fails to cheer me up. I love this haggard little fuzzball and his suspicious glare.

It's 2024, who's still here for this wholesome content?

Why do I find this so funny, I literally cried with laughter at his suspicious little face. Bless him and his cautious/curious nature 💕

Amazing how seamlessly they blend in to the environment

The way it slowly moves it’s head up to the camera and back down again is so cute

I LOVE manuls, those grumpy, round wild cats ❤ Fierce as demons they cannot be tamed, LOVE their independent spirit as well ❤ Thank you ever so much for posting 😊

Pallas cats are ferocious, yet they are also curious, smart, and so darn floofy.

The way it just looks up at the camera is just golden 😅

POV: You're a veteran player that left a spectator orb outside the cave that acts as the tutorial’s exit point to the open world region of the game. You remember you placed the orb down earlier and decide to select spectator mode moments before a newbie player hesitantly peeks their head outside of the cave and notices the object.

My cat notices every change in her environment. Everything entering must be thoroughly inspected.

I have watched this hundred times & it still makes me laugh 😂

It definitely has this look of “Wtf is this? What’s this doing here?” And an old guy face, “newfangled technology, geh!”

Pov: the fridge seeing me finally come out of my room for a snack

This video single-handedly being one of the most cutest vid i've ever seen.

The camera not budging and the pallas' cat being outside of the camera view at the end of the video makes for a seamless loop. Perfection.

I'm a big fan of space opera. And and this really, really. Curls my whiskers.

I don’t know anybody that can keep a straight face while watching this tomfoolery

One of the many things that make cats adorable is their curiosity. Like humans, they like to explore and see how things work. If they were human, they'd ask questions!!!

It takes skill to break the fourth wall of a nature documentary.

When I first saw this, I thought the way the cat poked its head up looked like one of those animal puppets from those kid's shows in the 90's 😂

This cat looks like something from the dark crystal and I love them for it

his last words: "Good afternoon, good evening and good night" *waves to the camera

They're so adorable looking and they really look a lot like house cats mostly... but still they're wild.

pallas cats always look like old men trying to figure out technology and it's hilarious every time i see one

Pretty sure he was checking out the birds, but still the best thing I've seen all day.

I love how his face when he first discovered the camera. He was like "it's looking at me!" 😂😂😂 Too funny 😁

I love the fact that the video ends with a subtle shakey camera indicating the cat was tapping the camera

Dudes obviously trying to avoid being spied on by the IRS

It's like watching SNL News and clueless characters are supposed to leave but they end up walking to the camera and standing there. Lol

I love how at the end he slowly lowered himself from the view of the camera. Lower, lower, lower, gone. Cats are awesome......

Pallas' cats are highly intelligent

After 9 Year KZfaq Recomends this for Showing us the Camera

"Are you getting my good side?"

Reading the comments, I'm glad to see I'm not the only person who finds this hilarious. 😆🤣 The first time I watched this-not expecting anything humorous-I laughed so hard I could barely breathe. It still makes me laugh every time I watch it. 🐈 These are such cool little cats. Totally awesome. 👍 Thanks for sharing this video. I love it!

I love 0:05 where he's like "wait, what the...?"

If looks could kill. Love watching these guys.

Crazy how nature does this

Beautifully feral. The stare straight into the camera was priceless.

"Sir please step aside, you're blocking the view" "I am the view"

I am so glad to live in a world where Pallas cats also live. I hope they continue to entertain us. Thanks.

That Pallas cat’s discovery has now changed all of cat history

Sometimes I'm blown away that animals like this exist in real life.

🐈 He looks like an old man finding a camera drone in his yard. 🐾. "I don't know what it is, but I definitely don't like it in my yard!". 😼

How he very sllllllowwwwlllyyy drops out of frame 😭🤣🤣 pure comedic gold 👑

Purrfect comedic timing

Dude looks like he's got some wisdom he's reluctant to give.

Looks like a slightly fuzzier cousin of the Scottish Wild Cat. Those eyes …checking out the camera - hilarious. Beautiful animal.

Delivery was perfect. Deserves Oscar

Love how his little face pops up from below then slides back down again.

That is cute. Cats of all kinds, even in the wild, are curious. This cat has an ancient look. Very interesting.

I didn't even know such a cat existed! So so so cuuute, love him peeking into camera closeup, hysterical! ❤❤❤

The awakening of a terrible beast strikes dread into your heart...

When the cat is unhinged af

"I don't know what this is, but I'm highly offended by it!" - Pallas Cat, 2014 circa 2022

It’s so neat how it inspects the camera, trying to figure out what it is, that’s one smart kittu

I just keep watching this!! It’s hysterical!❤️👍

I watch this almost every day and it never gets old
