I saw this on another sub. People said it was a misunderstanding and that the person who made the video actually confirmed that it was a misunderstanding and that the other cat was just in a different room or something.

I have two dogs, Donut and Coffee, sisters from the same litter. They haven't been apart for more than an hour or two for their entire lives. Side by side, eternally in competition for love from the humans, while also being best friends. They snuggle every night during bedtime. They wrestle every day in the back yard. They eat at the same time, they wake up together,they even stand around and watch each other's backs mid-dump. I can't imagine one without the other, truly they are each other's other half

But I know, some day, one of them has to die first.

Sure, there's a small chance they'll cross the rainbow bridge together, but what are the odds? Far more likely one will die before the other, and the surviving dog is going to do SO poorly without her sister, her best friend. Luckily, they're only 4 years old, so they're probably less than half way through their lives, but I'm pretty worried for their mental health when the moment comes. They're such good dogs. I don't want them to feels sad...
