‘That’s a weird dog,’ say netizens about this cat who loves to play fetch

“Black cat zoomies are wicked good!” read one comment under the post.

Cats may be known for many things, from getting their pet parents unwanted rats as tokens of appreciation to ripping up toilet paper for no apparent reason. However, playing fetch is usually something netizens associate with another species of four-legged furry beings that also rule our hearts, aka dogs. If you’re someone who also believes in that notion, then get ready to be pleasantly surprised. Here is a cat named Ollie who could potentially give any dog a run for its money when it comes to playing fetch.

This almost 10-second-long video was shared on Reddit on September 15. “My best boy Ollie! He thinks he’s faster than lightning!” reads the caption shared alongside the clip.

The recording starts with the cameraperson shaking a little toy in front of the lens. They then throw the plaything towards the grassy area of the backyard. Suddenly, a black-furred feline appears in the frame. In a few quick and swift motions, it reaches its toy.

Ollie? This cat should be named Flash. Watch the video, below, to see if you agree with us:
