Black Cat Looks So Much Like Toothless From 'How to Train Your Dragon,' It's Uncanny
I've always thought my Pug mix looks like baby Simba from The Lion King. He has the same honey-hued coloring, muscular (albeit a bit fleshier) build, and sassy personality as the spunky lion cub, making him a mirror image of the famous Disney character.
Squid the black cat also seems to have an iconic twin from the silver screen that starred in a beloved animated trilogy.
@mrecob13 squid definitely misses me making videos of him all the time #squid#cat#fyp#catsoftiktok

The TikTok from @mrecob13 featured a close-up of Squid as she stared into the camera with her yellow-green eyes wide open. Her mouth formed a sort of smile/sneer combo, where her teeth looked like fangs. Squid's face morphed into dramatic expressions that could easily make movie magic.
The pretty kitty was a dead ringer for Toothless from the 2010 hit film, How to Train Your Dragon. Toothless the black dragon stole the show with his loyalty to Hiccup, the Viking who found him. The movie launched a franchise with two sequels, with fans falling in love with the basilisk beauty who had a heart of gold.
Followers posted pictures of Toothless in the comments to show the similarities and raved over the feline fur baby's unique look.
"I love Squid so much - she has such a silly little smile," one gushed.
"Beautiful baby vampire kitty," another remarked.
"Reminds me of Toothless," a fan noted.
"Gosh look at those beautiful lil teeth," someone commented.
Why Black Cats Are Less Likely to Be Adopted
Most have heard of the superstition that black cats are bad luck. This myth still exists today, with potential pet parents often passing by black cats because of the stereotype and lowering the odds of adoption for these cats.
Black cats are as loving as other felines, and just need a chance to prove that they bring joy to a family rather than misfortune.

Like Squid, most black cats have yellow eyes, adding to their mysterious appearance. Kittens are usually born with blue eyes, with the color starting to change between 4 and 8 weeks old. Their eyes reach a permanent color by 3 to 4 months old.
Squid proves that black cats are true showstoppers and can even resemble movie stars.
