This Clever Cat Asks Her Mom To Turn On Her Favorite Cartoons Every Morning
Ella was adopted by her family when she was ten years old, and by that time, she had a firm grasp on her likes and dislikes, which she has never been afraid to express.
“Ella is very sassy and demanding,” Emily Kalaygian, Ella’s mom, says. “However, that's only because she's a lady who knows what she wants and I can't fault her for that! However, I will say she has her polite moments. Lots of mornings she waits by my door until I am awake. But that's not to say she doesn't use her voice to sing the song of her people when she needs to.”
One day, Kalaygian needed some background noise as she went about so she turned on "The Grinch." Ella was immediately enthralled, and so began Ella's adventure with her passion for cartoons.
“My husband and I started experimenting to see what she does/doesn't like, and once 2020 came around and we were stuck inside with her and the TV, it only grew from there,” Kalaygian said.
Ella now watches cartoons on a daily basis. Every morning, she waits outside her mother's door for her to go into her room and switch on the daily selection, and their routine revolves mainly around Ella's obsession with television.
Meet Ella
“In the morning, she usually waits by my door (or screams when she's feeling fancy), and I will pick a show to watch to see if it's something she'd enjoy,” Kalaygian said.
“By now I can tell what she won't/will like, but some days she surprises me! Then after, she does her thing (sleep) and I do mine (work).
Then usually when it's getting late, she's back up and we enjoy either another show or a movie! We used to watch lots of movies but lately have been enjoying shows as people have been giving so many recommendations to see what Ella will like!”
Ella loves cartoons
Everyone on the internet has been immensely invested in Ella's TV passion since she got her own TikTok, and it's been so much fun for people to discover what her favorite series and movies are alongside her and her family.
Her favorite show currently is "Oswald"
"Her favorite show currently is 'Oswald' — we have watched the episodes on Paramount+ on a loop it feels like,” Kalaygian said. “Before 'Oswald,' she was a HUGE 'Phineas and Ferb' fan but 'Oswald' knocked them off the pedestal recently.
And of course, she's known for her love of Benedict Cumberbatch, which is why she watches the 2018 Grinch and the 2018 Grinch ONLY. Sorry, Jim Carrey.”
She was a huge "Phineas and Ferb" fan before
Her parents noticed her love for cartoons about a month after she was adopted
She waits for them to wake up and play her favorite cartoons
Ella has always known exactly what she wants since the beginning. Most of the time, that means cartoons, which her parents are more than delighted to provide.
This goes to prove that good cartoons are appreciated by humans and animals alike. If only we could spend our whole days watching cartoons...
This cat is so lucky...
