Cat videos are a large part of what makes the internet what it is today, and the cat video that went viral this week on Instagram and TikTok is no exception to that rule.

In the video, we are greeted with a cat's thick Southern accent, and the internet can't get enough.

The video starts off simply enough: there are two cats in the room, a beautiful black and white and a lovely red tabby, and also a Roomba.

The Roombo is doing its work, sidling around the room, which slightly spooks the red tabby, whose name is Gambino. We need see Gambino flit across the room and through the kitchen.

The person taking the video, the cats' fur-mom, follows the cat's path and finds him giving himself a bath in the corner, just past the fridge.

As the camera pans around the corner of the fridge, Gambino briefly looks up and gives a two-syllable meow, which audibly compares to a quick greeting in a thick Southern accent.

Gambino, in no uncertain terms, said:

"Well, hi!"

The owner posted the video on Instagram and TikTok. Overnight, the video has received rave reviews on Instagram, and it's gone viral on TikTik with more than 10-thousand comments and 1.4-million likes.

The internet, of course, cannot get enough of watching this cat with his thick Southern accent, and apparently, his hospitable greetings.

Clearly, the internet is far from getting tired of watching cat videos.

But perhaps when it comes to an especially cute and friendly cat, with a little Southern hospitality thrown in, we may have a particularly winning video on our hands.

Another "talking cat" video overflowing with cuteness, Grumpy Cat's Worst Christmas Ever, is available here.

Sometimes, in an effort to improve our lives in some capacity requires us to make a significant dent in our bank account.

Even though it might be yogurt for dinner for a few weeks after, we still feel good about our expensive purchases when we see the difference a high-powered washing machine makes, or feel the cool air from our upgraded air conditioner.

Man Goes Viral After 3D-Printing A 6-Pound Phone Case To Combat Screen Addiction

Many Millennials will remember back in the nineties as the last of the "latchkey kids" who were prominently babysat by their televisions, and the commercials that rolled out, made popular on Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network, promoting kids to go play outside instead of watching TV all day.

Now in 2025, videos on Instagram and TikTok encouraging people to "pause their scroll" and to "put down their phones" are becoming more common and popular, because people are realizing how detrimental our increasing screen time is to our emotional, physical, and psychological health.

Woman Sparks Heated Debate After Encouraging People To Smile At Walmart Greeters

There's an old saying that goes, "It costs nothing to be kind."

Smiling at a stranger, saying hi back to a young and socialable child, holding a door for someone, and maybe even exchanging a pleasantry or two at the checkout line costs nothing more than a few words passing our lips and showing a little kindness.
