“Mistakes were made,” says the simple caption with which this video has been shared on Instagram by Imgur. The short clip shows the curious kitty standing on the edge of the bathtub. It then takes a careful step inside and lands on a dry surface of the tub. So far so good.

The cat then decides to test the water and dips a paw in and quickly realises this isn’t what it wants. However, by then it’s too late because it lands up in the water struggling to get out.

Don’t worry, the cat makes it out of the water within seconds and even runs out of the bathroom just to be even safer. Watch the video below:
