This cat has one thing on its mind. No, not fish snacks. No, not birds. Cuddles.

Sure, cats have a cold, aloof reputation. But not all cats are built alike. This cat wants to reach out and hold someone. He was just playing hard-to-pet all along.

To be fair, the cat does appear to be making a strange, unidentified sound, but that's all part of his charm. According to his owner, @kirika_mas_cos, the cat doesn't exhibit this kind of clingy behavior with anyone else. 

Beware: watching this video may make you spontaneously buy or pet a cat.
