“Baker in training,” reads the caption posted along with the video. The clip opens to show the cat lying on top of a blanket on a bed with a tablet kept in front of it. On the device, a video is playing that shows a person kneading dough. The kitty is seen imitating the gesture perfectly using the blanket.

Why did the video remind people of the animated film?

For the unversed, the 2007 fantasy film Ratatouille is about the journey of a rat named Remy, who becomes a famous chef from a drain-dweller rodent. In the film, the animal is seen cooking different dishes with the help of a human companion.

Take a look at this cute video of the cat imitating a chef:

“Baking specialist,” commented a Twitter user. “This is a win-win, cats are often up bright and early, so if you leave your cat with dough you can wake up to freshly baked rolls. Might be a bit of fur in it, but I guess you cannot have it all,” joked another. “I think the kitty is getting a hang of this. Good job,” posted a third. “Just do-ough it,” expressed a fourth. “So cute,” shared a fifth. “Catatouille in making,” wrote a sixth. What are your thoughts on the video of this cat imitating a chef?
