Kittens have no problem letting you know when it’s mealtime, and this little one could win an award for his performance. He’s hungry, apparently, and came ready to ooze out the drama to get his way.

In a hilarious video, this tiny Black Cat lets out the world’s longest, most expressive meow to demand someone get him a snack. It’s impossible not to laugh (and maybe want to feed him immediately because he’s very persuasive). Take a look at this little guy!

On October 22, @mom_of_benny shared a video on TikTok of an adorable Black Kitten who had a lot to yell at his mama for, and the reason is typical for kittens.

Mom opened the door where Benny was, and he didn’t skip a beat. The cute, tiny kitten used his big-boy voice to let his mom know that he wants food, and he wants it right now.

In the comments, people shared how they reacted to listening to Benny scream at his mama, and how much they all fell in love.

One person wrote, “Better feed him before he finishes casting that spell.”

Another shared, “Twisting that head around like Salem from Sabrina the Teenage Witch.”

Someone else added, “I immediately thought of the cat from Scary Movie.”

Other comments include, “The head turning is so funny,” “I’m so happy that he didn’t overreact,” “I thought [his] head was going to spin around,” “Probably just ate 5 mins ago,” “I think he’s trying to tell us something. I just can’t make out what it is,” and “Aww, poor baby hasn’t had food in 2 minutes.”

How Much Food Does a Kitten Need?

Kittens grow really quickly in the first few months of life, which means they need a lot of food. But how much food does a kitten need? Well, a lot.

According to Pawlicy Advisor, a kitten’s food needs are related to their weight and age. For kittens aged 6 to 8 weeks, experts recommend three meals per day, down from four meals per day, which is the recommended schedule for kittens between 4 and 6 weeks old. At 8 to 10 weeks old, kittens are generally weaned off milk and would do best with two meals a day.

Benny demanding food in such a vocal way isn’t unusual for a kitten his age, and he certainly makes it interesting.
