One month ago, a cat owner from The Netherlands named Deborah De Asis observed her cat making a heart-melting expression while holding a pack of treats. Since then, the clever cat has been using this trick whenever possible. According to the owner, the cat consistently pulls off this adorable face whenever she goes to the kitchen where his treats are kept. She jokingly mentioned to Bored Panda that she tries to limit his treat intake as he’s starting to put on some weight.

“We brought him into our family at just 8 weeks old. Master Poe Poe is full of energy, affectionate, and loves to be close to us. He adores cuddles and isn’t shy about letting us know when he wants attention – he’ll meow until we wake up and pet him. It’s his thing to lounge in his bowl; he’s quite the character with his expressive face and various expressions. But when he’s content and doesn’t need anything, this is what Master Poe Poe looks like.”
The charming real-life version of Puss in Boots rose to fame on TikTok after his owner shared a video capturing his Oscar-worthy performance. The video quickly went viral, racking up 146.9k views and receiving a flood of heartwarming comments from viewers insisting that Master Poe Poe get whatever his heart desires.
Deborah, the proud owner, was pleasantly surprised by the overwhelming response to the video. “I didn’t expect it at all. People are just loving him! There are now over 600 comments marveling at how cute he is,” she shared.

It seems like there’s plenty more stories to come for those who are already captivated by Master Poe Poe and his many expressions.
“When he catches a whiff of human food, especially fish, he can’t help but make a face of pure disgust. I often tease him by letting him sniff it just to see his reaction. If I try to leave the bedroom without him, he throws a little tantrum. And when he’s upset, he loves to hide behind the door and surprise me by jumping out. He’s a big fan of playing hide and seek and peekaboo, and when I find him, he lets out a cute little ‘prrr’ sound. But his biggest obsession is with my boyfriend. He eagerly awaits his return all day, and when my boyfriend finally walks through the door, Poe Poe can’t contain his joy. Every morning, he meows for his morning cuddles, wrapping his paws around my boyfriend’s neck for an extra tight hug.”
