Any random cat video seems to always have the potential to become a viral meme template. For the black cat zoning out meme, this is exactly what happened.

When the original video was posted earlier this year, the owner of the cats likely had no idea they'd be seeing their pets all over TikTok in many memes. For some reason, the "zoned out" expression of the video's main character was just too good not to earn exploitable status.

So, what is this trending meme all about? Where did it come from and who posted the original video? Let's explain.

What Is The 'Black Cat Zoning Out' Meme?

The meme in question uses a viral video of a black cat staring blankly at a tan-colored cat while the camera zooms in. Meme creators are pairing the video with many captions that mostly portray the feeling of being bored or zoning out during a snooze-inducing conversation or scenario.

Alternatively, the scenario outlined in the caption could be rage-inducing or fear-inducing, but overall, the scenario must be stare-inducing.

What's The 'Black Cat Zoning Out' Original Video?

The original video was uploaded by Japanese TikToker @vivizirumugireo on March 1st, 2023. In the original, the black cat stares at the tan-colored cat and then playfully attacks him with his claws. The video gained over 23,000 likes in four months. Little did the cat owner know, their pets would become a viral meme.

How To Use The 'Black Cat Zoning Out' Meme Template

The meme template that most creators use when making a black cat zoning out video is a greenscreen template that only shows the cats being zoomed in on. After downloading the video, the creators are then going into the app CapCut and using its "Remove Background" feature. From there, they add a background and a text caption that outlines a scenario where "zoning out" is inevitable.
