This cat has no time for optical illusions.

In the 21st century age of the Internet, it doesn't get much better than cat videos and optical illusions. So you would have thought they'd go well together, right? Wrong.

Ryan Kotzin, a YouTube user, recently posted a video of his cat staring at an optical illusion, which has now gone viral at 2.5 millions views.

Initially mesmerised by the illusion, the cat starts by gently pawing at it, and having a sneaky peek around.

But after a while, all hell breaks loose. Yep, it turns out cats really don't like optical illusions. In fact, they would probably rather just eat them (spoiler alert).
