Watch this Japanese Cat Beg For Breakfast in the Cutest Way Possible! (VIDEO)

YouTube user DekoniM first posted a video of his cat Earl’s morning routine back in 2008, but the clip has been getting lots of attention recently, and it’s easy to see why.

With his beautiful blue-grey eyes, plump little body, and striped grey coat, Earl is already a particularly eye-catching cat. But the way he begs for his breakfast takes him to practically unheard-of levels of cuteness. If you’re short on time, skip to 1:16 to get to the good part!

You can see more of the feline star on DekoniM’s channel, which offers a broad selection of videos featuring the cute cat’s quirky behaviors from dawn to dusk. According to his most recently posted video, from November 2013, the owner was looking for a new forever home for Earl. We hope that the previous owner is doing well, and are sure that Earl is bringing much joy and companionship to his lucky new pet parent.
