She added: “The response was definitely what I expected. “Most people were saying why they don’t like cats, why they’re team dogs.“ The video, which has racked up 14.4 million likes, has left Valeria’s followers concerned, with one user commenting: “You’re so lucky that wasn’t your eye.“ “Cat’s are friendly, they say,“ said another person wrote.
