Watch As This Cockatoo Tells Dad About The Cat. What It Was About? Haha I Can’t Stop Laughing!
If you need a pick-me-up today, look no further than this absolutely hilarious and heartwarming viral video making the rounds online. A talking cockatoo named Pebble has stolen the internet’s heart after being caught on camera tattling to “Dad” about a dramatic run-in with the family cat — and it’s pure comedy gold.
The now-famous clip begins with Pebble the cockatoo already mid-rant, clearly upset and flustered, pacing on the back of the couch with feathers slightly puffed. “I told you!” Pebble squawks, eyes wide and expressive. “I told you, that CAT was looking at me!” The bird flaps dramatically as if reenacting the traumatic moment. Dad, behind the camera, can barely contain his laughter as he plays along, asking, “What did the cat do, Pebble?”
What follows is an Oscar-worthy performance. Pebble starts mimicking what sounds like a hissing noise, followed by exaggerated squawks and a screech that can only be described as birdie panic. Then, in perfect timing, Pebble pauses, lowers her voice like she’s whispering a juicy secret, and says, “She tried to get me! BAD KITTY!”
It’s the kind of unexpected, unscripted moment that hits all the right notes. The bird’s tone, timing, and clear grasp of the house drama had viewers rolling with laughter. As if rehearsed, the cat then casually strolls by in the background, completely unbothered — the perfect villain to Pebble’s melodramatic tale.
Social media exploded with reactions. One commenter joked, “I’ve seen some drama queens, but Pebble takes the cake!” Another said, “I would watch a whole reality show of this bird spilling the tea on her household.”
While many birds are capable of mimicking human speech, Pebble’s ability to pair words with real-time drama and emotion makes her especially entertaining. Experts say that cockatoos, particularly when raised in homes with a lot of verbal interaction, can learn not just vocabulary, but how to use it contextually — often mimicking tone, mood, and even gestures.
Pebble’s owners shared that she’s always had a strong personality and often narrates things around the house like a tiny, feathered soap opera star. “She likes to insert herself into everything. If we’re arguing about dinner, she’ll chime in with, ‘Calm down!’ or ‘No fighting!’” the owner laughed. “But the cat rivalry is definitely her favorite topic.”
The short video, which has racked up millions of views and thousands of shares in just a few days, is being hailed as one of the funniest pet clips of the year. And honestly, it’s no wonder — there’s something universally relatable about a little creature standing up to the household cat and demanding justice.
So, if you haven’t seen Pebble’s viral moment yet, do yourself a favor and watch it. Just don’t try to drink anything while watching — you’ll probably spit it out from laughing too hard!
