In a recently viral video on Imgur titled "it's a long story," viewers are treated to an amusing interaction with a cat named Cala. The video begins with a voice saying, "Come here, come here," inviting Cala into the frame. What follows is nothing short of a comedic narration of what seems to be Cala's grievances during her owner's absence.

One popular comment humorously imagines Cala's dialogue: “While you were away, I wasn’t fed. After that, I was not fed. Then, there was no feeding. Finally, no one filled my food bowl.” This captures the essence of what many cat owners experience – their feline friends' exaggerated complaints when they return home.

Cala, who has her own Instagram page at @cala_and_elizabeth, is sadly no longer with us, as shared by a commenter. Fans of the video have expressed their affection for Cala, describing her as a "little dork" and a "cute cat." The video, however, has sparked some debate over its presentation, with some viewers questioning the necessity of the white frame and the sped-up footage. One comment humorously asks, "Was the 2x speed necessary though?"

Interestingly, Cala’s behavior in the video mirrors that of many other cats. One user shares, "Had a cat that did the same. We'd go away for a week and she'd walk around yelling at everyone when we got back." Another recounts their cat Indy, who would eagerly meet them at the back door and continue chatting all the way into the bathroom, detailing her daily adventures.

The video captures Cala's adorable ear twitches and her seemingly sassy demeanor, which one comment describes as "the sass." While some viewers found the video to be a bit of a mystery – questioning whether it was an advertisement and lamenting the "cursed" white frame – the overall consensus is that the video provides a affecting and humorous glimpse into the life of a beloved pet.

Whether Cala is expressing her displeasure at being left alone, bringing a small animal as a gift, or simply demanding attention, the video resonates with cat lovers everywhere. It highlights the unique and endearing ways cats communicate with their humans, making it a relatable and entertaining watch.
