Privacy is something we all value, especially during personal moments. But for one Malaysian, a recent private time in a restroom turned into an unexpectedly public event.

In a TikTok video shared by @aiemeyyz._, a man tried to have a peaceful moment in the restroom but ended up with an unusual observer – an adorable cat.
The cat strategically positioned itself on top of the restroom door, keeping a constant stare as if delving into the man's soul. The man, dealing with the awkwardness of unblinking eyes during a private moment, expressed his frustration, saying, "I can't even poop in peace," in the video caption.
The cat, unwavering in its watchfulness, not only avoided blinking throughout the entire clip but also stayed completely still. It seemed to have a purpose in its gaze, as if there was some unfinished business. Unlike a well-behaved pet dog that might patiently wait outside the door, this cat showed rebellious independence, refusing to follow any traditional expectations.
The TikTok video quickly gained popularity, reaching an impressive 4.7 million views within just a few days.
Malaysian netizens, finding humor in the unusual situation, came up with their own amusing "theories" to explain why the cat insisted on staying and chose to "enjoy the show" instead of leaving the scene.
