It’s always fascinating to observe how two completely different species interact with each other. Cats, known for their short tempers, often provide the best entertainment when they are forced to engage with other animals.
When a video surfaced of a little goat attempting to headbutt a cat, we knew it would be amusing. Goats seem to have an instinctual need to headbutt things, and unfortunately for this cat, it became the goat’s latest target.
Captured on video, the goat persistently tries to headbutt the cat, who is clearly not in the mood. As the goat continues its attempts, the cat’s patience finally wears thin, resulting in a hilarious moment where the cat gives the goat a warning nip.
The video, shared on YouTube by Lavender 23, has garnered over 4.5 million views from people around the globe. Despite having no caption, the title, “Baby Goat Tries to Headbutt Cat,” perfectly summarizes what viewers can expect.
The video begins with a standoff in the kitchen between the goat and the cat. As the cat tries to make her way through, the small yet determined goat blocks her path and stares her down as if daring her to proceed. The housecat, an expert in displaying disdainful indifference, pretends not to notice the goat and attempts to sidestep it.
However, the goat remains undeterred. It was born to headbutt, and it won’t be dissuaded. As the goat moves in for its fourth headbutt attempt, the cat finally loses patience and gives the goat a small nip, asserting her dominance. At this point, the goat concedes, although it seems likely that this won’t be the end of their interactions.
Viewers took to the comments to express their enjoyment of the video. One person joked:
“Goat was definitely underleveled for this fight, tactics need a lot of improvement and he needs to invest some skill points in attack. Probably a new player.”
Another speculated about the goat’s thoughts:
“The Goat’s like, ‘This feline has a nearly impenetrable forcefield. I must hit it in different places enough to weaken it!’”
A final commenter noted that, despite appearing annoying to the cat, the goat might be trying to be friendly:
Sign Petition Today: The Cruelty By This Man Is Unthinkable.
A horrific case of animal cruelty and domestic violence unfolded last year in Fargo, North Dakota. The details are disturbing and tragic. The abuser was sentenced to prison, but we must ensure he never terrorizes another person or animal again.
“It’s cool seeing the goat try to play using his goat etiquette, which any other goat would understand, but this cat is just like ‘what is this thing doing in my house and why does it keep bouncing like that’ lol.”
We hope this unlikely duo will grow to be the best of friends, as long as the goat learns to hold back on those headbutts!
