A dishwasher-helping cat clip is making people laugh on TikTok. Mikey races over when the door pops open. In the cat dishwasher video, the dwarf cat looks proud and focused. The reel comes from iamwillywonky, a creator with 1.5 million followers. The black cat, Nugs, drifts in like backup. He sits up and “holds” the dishwasher door. On-screen captions call it “Good JOB, BUDDY” as he stands guard. Nugs watches from behind like a coworker.

The creator lists Kansas City in the bio. The owner calls, “Oh, Mikey, dishwasher is clean”, and he trots in. He plants his front paws on the open Samsung dishwasher door.

Mikey treats the routine like a real task. Because he is a dwarf cat, he sits upright to reach the door. He watches the owner pull dishes out, one at a time. He never drops his “post,” even when the kitchen gets busy.
On-screen captions flash “Good JOB” and “BUDDY” as Mikey holds his spot. The owner laughs and says, “Look, it just popped open”. She asks, “Are you so excited?”. Then she warns, “Oh, it’s still hot”. Nugs, the black cat, appears behind Mikey and watches. The owner jokes that he has an assistant, and the job might not need two helpers. The cat dishwasher video ends with a different reward. The owner says Mikey is “not a big treats kitty”. So she gives “extra lovins” and “extra scratchies”. Mikey leans into the pets and looks satisfied.
Fans replied fast. One wrote, “Me doing the absolute bare minimum at work and expecting an exceptional evaluation”. Another said, “Okay. I got de door mama”. A third added, “not him actually being excited with his little rattle tail ?” Someone else admitted, “Now this is one employee I would absolutely love to tip”.
