Wesley Ryan, a hopeful actor from the bustling city of New York, decides it’s time to record a video audition for a new role. Seems pretty standard, right? Well, not when Odie, his mischievous cat, has something to say about it!
In a hilarious series of attempts captured on Wesley’s TikTok channel, you can see the struggle unfold. Wesley starts off all professional, introducing himself, giving his name, height, and city of residence. But just as he’s about to dive into his audition, guess who decides to steal the limelight? None other than Odie, the attention-loving feline.
Odie, in his playful glory, keeps interrupting Wesley’s video. He’s climbing up legs, wandering in front of the camera, basically demanding his share of the spotlight. Wesley, being the patient cat parent, tries his best to reason with his fluffy friend. “You just need attention, huh? Do you want to be in my self-tape?” he asks Odie, holding him gently, attempting to continue his audition.
But does Odie back down? Not a chance! No matter how many times Wesley tries, Odie just keeps coming back, pacing around or meowing right at his feet, as if to say, ‘Pay attention to me!’
Now, we don’t know exactly how many takes Wesley went through to finally complete his audition, but let me tell you, the outtakes have become an internet sensation! The clip has gone viral on TikTok and Twitter, leaving viewers in stitches.
People can’t get enough of this adorable duo. Comments like “This is just darling! People dream to have a bond like that with their cats. Too cute,” flooded in. Some fans even suggested Wesley include Odie in his application video because, well, who wouldn’t want to hire someone with such an irresistibly cute co-star?
Maybe, just maybe, Wesley’s future employer is a cat enthusiast too. After all, Odie has certainly proven he’s a natural in front of the camera!
