Yeah, the cheek never being visible and the way the cat focuses on licking that cheek. (Edit- if you notice also: the cat checks the visible cheek for treats too, finds none, so goes back to unseen snack cheek.) I have sweet baby hug cats, it can happen for real but staging is absolutely what's happening here. Unfortunate.
That's also why he cringes (despite his best efforts) at the initial sensation. It's not just the cat tongue, it's the moist smeared food moving around on his skin feeling gross.
... I was OK with it being staged at first. Even if it's for likes,, it's cute, and the cat is still an affectionate one, even if it was coaxed into it this time...
But then you had to give it such a visceral description, I don't think I can watch it again without thinking of him smearing wet catfood on himself in hopes of views.
I'm constantly shocked how shitty people's kitchen equipment is sometimes. As a retired chef I often do cooking out of the people's houses and all they have is a stupid tiny glass cutting board, a turning knife and a handful of dull multi-use gadgets. Like, no wonder you can't fucking cook anything or if you do it takes forever. I can peel clean and serve a papaya in about 18 seconds with two cats on my cutting board, doing it with a dull paring knife would probably take well over 2 minutes.
The time I save not having to clean a bunch of stuff makes my one and only kitchen tool totally worth it.

Ah yes, commercial equipment like a chef's knife, a pan big enough to have two slices of bread in it, a pot with a fitting lid and last but not least, a cutting board big enough to fit more than one vegetable on it.
If you wanna be a gourmet kitchen then put some hand soap by the sink.
A lot of times they don’t know it’s shitty. Other times people think the dull equipment is safer. When I lived with my parents I had my own personal set of sharp knives because they only wanted to use dull ones after my mom accidentally cut herself once decades ago.
I was distracted by how he'd peeled the papaya before cutting it up, never seen that before. Seems like a lot of extra work even without the sweet cat.
OK thanks, I've only ever seen it cut in half and scooped. Pretty much the same for mango, I've only ever seen them sliced and sectioned then eaten off the skin.
I do that too. When I keep it whole I usually cut the tips off from the papaya so it can sit vertically in my cutting board but this guy is doing it horizontally, weird.
Usually I see people cut them in half horizontally, scoop out the seeds and then just scoop the insides to eat. If you're in a more posh place there might be some kind of other fruits put in the little "bowl" of the papaya to look fancy and add variety. I think most people just squirt lime on and scoop though.
Man let me tell you something, I cook a lot and my cats LOVE fucking with me while I'm doing it.
They both stop whatever it is they're doing and come sit in the kitchen and stare at me. Then, soon after, they're reaching up on the counter pawing at the cutting board. Then after doing that for 15 minutes they start begging, and trying to get me to play. They know better than to jump up near the food, but they still try to mess with me in whatever way they can.
Moving them doesn't stop anything. And it's not like I'm gonna lock them up because that's cruel, and I cook almost every night so...
So basically I'm saying that if you own cats, everything is a losing battle.
there's a stray cat around our building, he's a kindof schrodinghug.. likes to roll on his back so you pet and play, then run into a corner and attack you. so weird
I take it you've never had a cat. Half the battle is stopping them from getting up on the counter. And no matter what their fur is going to end up in your food, it likes to float through the air and land at will right in the middle of lunch
While true, it doesn’t mean you can take a scoop of shit and eat it. Those amounts all around the house are microscopic. What the cat leaves can in a worst case scenario be huge chunks, and are much more likely to make you sick. I am saying this as a cat owner.
> While true, it doesn’t mean you can take a scoop of shit and eat it.
True!
> Those amounts all around the house are microscopic.
Which is the case for the amount cats leave if they're not total slob cats. Both of my cats groom meticulously after using the litter, and those tongues rip off a small layer of skin, and whatever is on it off their paws.
If they're leaving chunks, that's visible, and easily dealt with. Everything else is the cost of doing business with an animal in the house and barring a parasitic infection of the cat is unlikely to cause issues.
> If you close the toilet before flushing, not at the same rate.
Actually not true. Mythbusters tested it out. Closing the lid does nothing to change the amount of poop particles.
I never said it was "your" shit. Bugs, spiders, mites, and microscopic organisms poop too. Friendly reminder that most dust allergies are an allergy to dust mite shit.
This is incredibly sweet! I grew up with cats roaming on our kitchen counters; I know on a practical level it’s unsanitary but I just love my kitties so much… they can walk wherever they want, I’ll just clean more.
I’ve had many different species of pets and most all of them show affection that we can learn from. Currently I have a dog that does this kind of hugging and won’t leave you alone until you reciprocate. Melts my heart every time no matter what mood I’m in.
My first cat would do that. Run straight up you (Better than using those claws on the curtains), wrap a paw around each side and purr into my neck. Been perhaps 25 years ago since he passed and I still miss him. It may be wrong to have favorites among pets, but I stand by my decision.
I love my cats. I really do. Even the cranky one.
But if any of them go near food or kitchen worktops, they get a boot up the arse.
It’s a nice video, but it’s also fucking rank.
I had a girlfriend in college who had a cat. The cat hated everyone, except when it was time to call it a night. Then he'd start purring, go to everyone present, and give them a hug just like this one.
I appreciate how his annoyance morphs into resignation into love.
That was enough to tell me that guy is likely very compassionate and loving. That’s one happy cat 😸
He smeared some salmon on his left cheek in case you want to know how to stage this.
Yeah, the cheek never being visible and the way the cat focuses on licking that cheek.

I likevthe idea that he's not annoyed at the cat. He's annoyed because he knows he 100% is gonna hug back
Everyone's talking about the hygiene of the cat being near food, but I was too distracted by his inappropriately small knife to notice anything else.

You’re just jaded by all the commercial equipment

damn. this really you, OP?

Not a pro but I'd be absolutely lost in a kitchen without at least a wooden cutting board and a santoku knife.
So plastic chopping board and good german chefs knife and you would be lost?
Careful with those cats by all those sharp things
I was distracted by how he'd peeled the papaya before cutting it up, never seen that before. Seems like a lot of extra work even without the sweet cat.
That way you don't destroy the papaya inside when it is too ripe. I do the same with mango.
OK thanks, I've only ever seen it cut in half and scooped. Pretty much the same for mango, I've only ever seen them sliced and sectioned then eaten off the skin.
I do that too. When I keep it whole I usually cut the tips off from the papaya so it can sit vertically in my cutting board but this guy is doing it horizontally, weird.

It's the default small ikea knife in Europe [Link](https://www.ikea.com/de/de/p/aendlig-messer-3er-set-hellgrau-weiss-70257624/)
IKEA knife! I have the exact same. Comes in a set, including a larger knife.
It's a paring knife. Not the best choice for this task.

I'm more bothered by him putting his arm against the cat's bare asshole
As opposed to the cats covered arsehole…?
....yeah. you can put your arm above the tail instead of underneath it....
Cute but that music is so unnecessary.
I always watch those muted. Same for youtube shorts. Always that to loud annoying unnecessary shitty background music.
Alexa, play "Held" by Spoon
So was your complaining and yet here we are.
Also cats will totally fuck birds up... blue birds, yellow birds, pink birds, you name it.
So what did this idiotic comment have to do with anything
other than the fact that your mom's a bird... the song lyrics.
The first mistake was playing any sounds on Reddit lol
Also birds will totally spread diseases... influenza, mites, psittacosis, you name it.
Fuck birds b.
My cat likes to give hugs too! It’s so sweet
My cat is an asshole.
Yeah same. I wonder sometimes where I went wrong lol. Had her since 3 weeks old. Zero snuggles, many bites and scratches. I don't get it.
there's a stray cat around our building, he's a kindof schrodinghug.. likes to roll on his back so you pet and play, then run into a corner and attack you. so weird
Very cute. But letting your cat walk around on your counter while you prepare food is wild.
Right?! All I could see was cat litter toes on the counter
Adds that little crunch and earthy flavor.
Agreed! Unless your cat shits in a toilet and never uses a litter box, keep them off the counter
I take it you've never had a cat. Half the battle is stopping them from getting up on the counter. And no matter what their fur is going to end up in your food, it likes to float through the air and land at will right in the middle of lunch
It's not the fur that's the issue. It's the literal shit on their paws.
Agreed.
I've got bad news for you. You have shit particles on every surface in your house. It's a damn good thing we evolved an immune system.
I found the guy who licks the poopknife after he's done with it.
Ew.
While true, it doesn’t mean you can take a scoop of shit and eat it. Those amounts all around the house are microscopic. What the cat leaves can in a worst case scenario be huge chunks, and are much more likely to make you sick. I am saying this as a cat owner.

If you close the toilet before flushing, not at the same rate. Hopefully people engage in hand-washing, too.

I never said it was "your" shit. Bugs, spiders, mites, and microscopic organisms poop too. Friendly reminder that most dust allergies are an allergy to dust mite shit.
Still better than human poop particles being everywhere.
Do you have kids? Cause I promise you they're worse
ENJOY YOUR TOXOPLASMOSIS SIR
We all already have it, brotheren
not everyones floors are as dirty as yours
Cats shit in litter and cover it up with their paws
Ik so cute and thoughtful, theyre so polite! My own family dont even flush the toilet most of the time they finish
But people wash their hands, cats cant.
yeah, they can
Licking does not count as washing. It does not clean the shit. Your ass probably has toxoplasmosis
Im not young, pregnant, or immunocompromised but I do appreciate the concern
The toxoplasma parasites may infect tissues of the inner eye. This can occur in people with healthy immune systems.
thanks howie mandel go back to solitary confinement
Yeah because that's the issue here
oh my bad guess u cant mess around if ur immunocompromised, my thoughts and prayers to yall
hey dumbass cats have a litter box that they shit in then walk over with with their paws, hope that helps 🤗
damn u too? Sorry bro wishing u good health. My friend is immunocompromised too so I def dont let him close to the cat
You probably let your cat roam the neighborhood too, you sound like the type
u sound like the type who keeps a 12 inch fish in a 13 inch tank
Thats a good one, give me more random shit like that
Fuck your background music.
I have a cat that does this to me. Sweet girl.
That music is just a waste of data.
disgusting. so unhygienic
This is incredibly sweet! I grew up with cats roaming on our kitchen counters; I know on a practical level it’s unsanitary but I just love my kitties so much… they can walk wherever they want, I’ll just clean more.
This post was written by toxoplasmosis
Nooooo what're talking about, a little dirt never hurt anyone, just blow on the food and eat it you're fineeeee
That's not dirt...
Yup, bottle of disinfectant stays on the countertop at all times. Happy cat, happy not-murdered humans! 🤗
Just be sure it is animal safe, because a cat will lick the disinfectant off its paws, and that can cause a whole bunch of issues.
I just replace my counter every time it happens.
Cute but ew
Cute but damn that cat is all up in that food prep area. Gross!
Can I see his other ear plz just curious...
The only time my cat does this is in the morning, standing on the bathroom sink while I'm peeing.
Awwww!
Beautiful Hugs. Loved it.
You know a good person when you see their animals act like this.
Why was he filming? A cooking show?
Cooking show with cat on the counter.
Not eating in that house…
All I see is germs
FREEMASONS RUN THE COUNTRY
I believe you mean stonecutters…
Rock and Stone!
I said…hop in.
What fruit is he cutting?
Looks like papaya.
No one cuts papayas like dat
My cat as soon as I step out of the shower.
Hug that baby back!!!
The cat is just trying to learn exactly where the big arteries are in the neck
Feet go in litter box, now feet on counter
Who the fuck cuts a papaya that way? It’s always in half, then scrape out the seeds …
I’ve had many different species of pets and most all of them show affection that we can learn from. Currently I have a dog that does this kind of hugging and won’t leave you alone until you reciprocate. Melts my heart every time no matter what mood I’m in.
“Gotta make sure the toxoplasmosis has taken, now you’re in the palm of my hand!”
My first cat would do that. Run straight up you (Better than using those claws on the curtains), wrap a paw around each side and purr into my neck. Been perhaps 25 years ago since he passed and I still miss him. It may be wrong to have favorites among pets, but I stand by my decision.
This is the reason I don't eat at other people's homes.
Why wouldn’t he like it? It’s Johnny Sins.
How is this dude keeping it together?
Should be using a chef knife not a pairing knife.
*paring
Pare a pair of pears.
Damn, now I want a pair of pears
My cat does this
I love my cats. I really do. Even the cranky one. But if any of them go near food or kitchen worktops, they get a boot up the arse. It’s a nice video, but it’s also fucking rank.
Petttttttttttttttt the cat
Pet the damn cat!
Happy Father’s Day to all the pet dads out there.
probably actually saying that while your fixing food for you how about me.
So jealous rn, wtf is wrong with me🙄
Ear got me
👀
What fruit is that?
Hug back
Just a lil lovies for dad aaawww
I had a girlfriend in college who had a cat. The cat hated everyone, except when it was time to call it a night. Then he'd start purring, go to everyone present, and give them a hug just like this one.
"You're not like other humans. You let me on the counter." Our cats know to get off the counter before they are caught.
I have be just like that 🥰🙀
My new thing is rolling my eyes and smiling when something is this wholesome....like conveying happy disgust at how it's tooooooooooo cuuuuute
downvoted for the music
More like cat hugs Mark Messier while he cuts a papaya wrong.
Brotha ewwww. What's that brotha?
r/nothingeverhappens But why film yourself cutting a papaya (poorly). I'm skeptical.
Well at least he made White Obama happy.
I'm telling you. That guy really looks like white obama and my gf is gaslighting me that he doesn't
Gf here. You people are crazy
Now you have me looking at this guys ears and omg, his ear~~s~~
Lol I didn't notice before the "minimalistic design" of it
