Which Pixar movie could make kitty react this way?
Whether they’re sleeping, eating, or walking through closed sliding doors, cats have a delightful way of making us smile at their antics, and we always laugh the hardest when we know they probably don’t want us to. Lately, it’s cats watching scary movies that have been catching our interest, and this cute little bundle of fur from Japan, named Rikku, is reminding us why the term “scaredy cat” exists, as its relaxed face turns into one of horror, all because of an animated Pixar movie.
▼ The chill kitty, who usually loves kicking back in this position to watch a movie, suddenly lost its stoic cool when one scene played out on the screen.
▼ The cat’s eyes grew wide and its head pulled back away from the screen.
▼ But still, kitty couldn’t look away.
And what was it that caused the feline to recoil in fear? It was James P. Sullivan, a.k.a Sulley, from Monsters, Inc., in the scene where he’s made to give out a loud roar and ends up scaring his little friend Boo.
▼ Turns out the loveable furry monster has a way of scaring cats too.
The cute pet’s owner, Twitter user @HOMEALONe_ksk, posted the photos online, where they received more than 25,000 likes and retweets, with commenters laughing at the sweet cat’s reaction to the film.

Still, it’s not the first time the black-and-white kitty has pulled this face, with another movie causing the same reaction, although this one didn’t even make it out of the DVD box.

That time, Rikku was reacting to his owners attempts to watch a Harry Potter movie. The clever kitten must’ve known what types of scary monsters lay in store just by looking at the cover!
