Viral Parody Song "Eating the Cats" Mocks Trump’s Remarks, Gathers 8.7 Million Views

A parody song titled “Eating the Cats,” created by South African musician David Scott, also known as The Kiffness, has gone viral. The song mocks Donald Trump’s controversial remarks made during a debate, where he suggested that Haitian migrants in Ohio were eating America’s pets. With more than 8.7 million views on YouTube in just 12 days, the song has caught global attention.

The Kiffness’ Humorous Take on Trump’s Claim

In the song, Scott humorously pleads, “People of Springfield please don’t eat my cat,” while offering alternative food options like broccoli, avocados, and poached eggs. The light-hearted approach gives a comedic spin to Trump’s claim, uniting people through humor rather than criticism. The song features not only Scott’s vocals but also appearances from cats and dogs, making it an entertaining visual treat.

Music That Unites Through Humor

Scott, who is known for his feel-good songs about pets and children, stated that his aim with the parody was not to hurt anyone but to spread positivity. “Music has a powerful way of taking away negative energy,” he told AFP. Scott insists that the song is about promoting humor in difficult situations, particularly when it involves a polarizing figure like Trump.

Donations for Stray Pets

All proceeds from the song are going to help stray pets in Springfield, with over $20,000 already raised. Scott emphasized that he wanted to make a difference through his music, helping stray cats and dogs in the community. The viral song has united people from both sides of the political spectrum, with Democrats and Republicans praising its light-hearted message.

Backlash and False Claims

Despite the humor in the song, Trump’s original claim about migrants eating pets continues to stir controversy. Haitian groups in Springfield have filed charges against both Trump and his running mate JD Vance, who defended the statement, for the threats it posed to their community. However, officials in Springfield, including the mayor and Ohio’s governor, have confirmed there is no evidence backing Trump’s claims.

Conclusion

The Kiffness’ viral parody song “Eating the Cats” has become a global hit, using humor to address a controversial topic while raising money for a good cause. Its success shows the power of music in uniting people, even in politically charged moments.
