Milu the kitten escapes closed cage in viral Japanese video

A video posted on the Japanese Instagram account “Milu to Bell” shows the kitten Milu slipping out of a closed cage. The animal pushes its head through a gap in the cage’s side rail, then wriggles its front legs and torso out, eventually freeing itself. The clip has attracted more than 740,000 views and comments praising the kitten’s flexibility and ingenuity.

In a separate online post, a user preparing takoyaki discovered that the katsuobushi seasoning was missing and substituted a cat snack that contains katsuobushi and cellulose. Two cats were photographed looking on, and the incident drew humorous reactions on X, with users suggesting the owners compensate the cats with treats such as “Churu.” Both stories illustrate light‑hearted pet‑related moments that have resonated with Japanese social‑media audiences.
