On November 20, 2023, a charming scene unfolded in a Shanghai residence when a pet owner decided to introduce their newly adopted dog to the family's cats.

When the dog was led to the cats' room, the owner slowly opened the door so as not to startle ten feline residents, but they went into alert mode all the same with astonishment.

In the midst of a tense standoff between the two sides, a curious cat by the window tries to get a little closer, but accidentally makes a slight noise, causing all the cats to go into a momentary panic.

These panicked critters started jumping up and down in a swift, chaotic ballet around the room, leaving their owner with no choice but to gently close the door to abort the attempted introduction.

According to the owner, the dog, who had just been picked up, had previously been kept by his father and had a gentle temperament. He tried to get his cats and the dog to meet and get used to each other, not expecting the scene to get out of hand.
