It doesn’t come as a surprise that social media is full of everything pet-related: from cats on TikTok to doggo memes, our love for pets is a phenomenon on its own. YouTube alone is a never-ending source of cutesy, funny, and darn awesome footage of whatever-animal-you-have, and so many of them are viral.
This particular internet craze of pets behind glass can be seen as yet another twist in an online animal planet. Both utterly absurd and too funny, it epitomizes everything we like about animals on the internet.
It’s also not the first time people have gotten creative with merging objects and pets in pictures for online challenges, Twitter threads, and viral jokes.
You probably remember the times cats were tortured with the sight of cucumbers, or the days when people would put slices of bread on top of their animals' heads. “Cats Vs. Cucumbers” and “Cat Breading” are now among the most viral examples of social media humor and are now listed in the Know Your Meme database.
