Most cats can be summed up in words…

MISCHIEVOUS. LITTLE. TROUBLEMAKERS.

A TikTok user posted a video and showed folks the fast one their cat Eleanor pulled on them.

The video’s text overlay reads, “Eleanor, after I spent 90 minutes tearing apart the house looking for her sobbing, thinking she got out somehow.”

In the video, Eleanor crawled out of a cardboard box.

Like all cats, Eleanor didn’t think she did anything wrong and she simply stared at her owner who’d been frantically searching for her.

The video’s caption reads, “I love that she definitely heard me calling her name and just completely ignored it.”

Cats sure do have a knack for terrifying their owners…
