Cute animal clips always tend to leave netizens heart warmed and recently a video of a cat getting startled after ‘reading a scary story’ is making rounds on several social media platforms. Shared on Reddit on July 17, the short clip shows a ‘polite’ cat pawing a Kindle and getting scared. While the caption of the post read “must be a scary story,” the clip was shared on the subreddit ‘Startled cats’. 

The 13-second-long video starts with a white-and-tangerine coloured feline nibbling the edge of the Kindle. Within seconds, as the pet parent tried to move the device, the cat suddenly can be seen jumping back and getting startled. The furry feline can be seen ‘politely’ tapping on the device with its tiny paws. No matter how inquisitive the cat was, it can be seen keeping its gap from the device and sniffing and pawing it from a distance.

Another added, “I love how he kind of carefully bats at it without claws. Very polite”.
