Originally shared on the Instagram page of the cat and its sibling called eric_and_ollie, the clip gained popularity after being re-posted on the official Insta page.

“When you’ve got chores to do but you don’t feel like doing them. Meet best mates Eric the Persian, Ollie the exotic shorthair and Darcy the Pomeranian. ‘Eric loves to be driven around while we clean the house,’ says the trio’s human Stephen. ‘Darcy is always intrigued, although Ollie typically is not too fussed’,” they wrote while sharing the video.

The clip opens to show a cat sitting inside a box on top of a robot vacuum that is going around cleaning a floor. The cat is seen sitting in a calm manner and enjoying the ride. Maybe the feline is trying to tell humans that when you absolutely don’t feel like doing your chores then the best thing to do is relax. The video also shows a dog’s reaction to the cat’s ride.
