- What should you do when an African wild cat falls in love with your hair? Go with it and keep that camera rolling! We can't really explain the serval's strange fascination ... but our cameraman Boris does have a pretty impressive mane.
Wait till you get the bill. You will be astonished.
Eddie King hahaha x'D
Eddie King
I didn't get a bill, I got a dave.
The great Sir Val will only be paid in pure Springbok meat!
🤣🤣🤣
The cat was giving a really good sign of affection, grooming. Be flattered. The cat probably thought you had matted fur and he wanted to fix that for you.
He does have pretty hair. I don't blame the cat.
We'll be sure to compliment Boris on his hair when we bump into him in the office :-)
😻

Really nigga?
Saying shit like that in animal video? 😂
Nor Priest enough of the nigga
Crap
This is a Serval, a very rare cat not an African Wild cat. Is this a shelter for african species ???? Or a zoo ??????, And what earth Wild is doing in this kind of place , Please explain thank you
Sooooo cute! You can even hear the purring!
Gotta admit it, he does have beautiful hair. :)
patatakap true
patatakap my hair used to like that, but blond
patatakap fluffy
the serval you mean?
You can see the same inquisitiveness in this beautiful creature that is present in all cats.
We assume you're talking about the serval and not Boris the cameraman :-P
Earth Touch
Ah.. I see what you did there ;)
The true beautiful creature was the cameraman
No matter their size, all cats are cats! :3
Don't know what I'd do if a lion did that :P
Stick its bum in my face I mean. XP
The serval was grooming him, it's a sign of affection.
The serval loves him and trusts him. For him the
the cameraman is part of his family.
Mine mine mine mine mine...... Kitty marked him as a possession.
That serval owns you now. Anything you bring it that cage belongs to him :)
In my youth I had a summer job in a zoo. We had an old male lion who had been declawed and defanged as a cub and kept as a pet for years before he came to live at our zoo. He was like a big friendly puppy dog. We let him roam around the zoo loose. Yes his name was Leo. The sign at the entrance warned people that Leo liked to sneak up on visitors and roar to make them jump but he was pretty harmless. The kids loved petting him. Leo's favorite food was spaghetti and meatballs, especially meatballs. He loved chasing basketballs around but 99% of the time he would sit on his "perch" under an old oak tree and sleep. The most dangerous thing about Leo is he could literally lick you to death with that rough tongue of his. He was also much more likely to lean against you and cuddle than pounce on anyone. I'd have taken him home if I could.

defanged. LAWL wut? youre so full of shit its hilarious. you cant defang a fucking lion, or it will die. it literally requires its canines to eat.
No, actually it does not and the fact that you think so shows how little you know about the topic. This has been common practice in the past for keeping large cats as pets which makes them defenseless in the wild. They will NOT die from having their fangs removed though it is a form of cruelty. They don't need their fangs to eat but they do need their canines. Elderly lions often lose most of their teeth. in the wild they do die because they can't chew their food but in zoos they simply grind up their food like one would for a baby.
Legend Length correct. they survived ONLY as long as a human was there to feed them nothing but mush. even then, the cats die after a few years in captivity due to the host of health issues that arise when you remove said canine teeth. just like literally any predator.
Legend Length and YOULL read that he died a few years later, whatever lion you speak of in this clearly hypothetical situation.
This brought tears to my eyes, as it reminded me of my cat. She lived a good long 17 years. When I went to bed, she would jump up and do this to my hair.
She did that for more than half of my damn life. Was honestly a better and more caring mother figure in my childhood than my actual mom.
I got a tattoo of her on the back of my left hand, her face is blooming out of a Rose of Sharon, we buried her under one when she passed. It symbolizes both the undying love I have for this cat, but also my own personal belief that our spirit remains in this world.
Every year, the tree she lies under blooms 2-4 times, something Rose of Sharon are not supposed to do.The tree has survived late spring frosts, which have killed our other similar trees. Is thriving in bad soil, which isnt even soil...its sand...
I got a tattoo of her so id never forget her, and she has been paying back my memory of her by living on in any way she can, even if that means being a tree that has beaten all odds.
Riptide Gaming ok but why am I crying??? That's so sweet. What a good kitty.
Riptide Gaming Wow that beautiful. I'm so sorry for your loss. My tortoise cat mamed Dulcinia was similar.. Would come and comfort me if I was sick or crying. She passed away 20 years ago at the age of 19 and I still miss her.
Riptide Gaming oh god bless you hon. I know your pain. My baby Liz got very sick a few months ago and I had to put her down. I buried her under a juvenile oak tree next to my mom's beloved Miss Priss (who lived to be 19) so that our love for them can grow with the tree.
Sad
4 years later and here I am in my feelings after reading this
In typical feline fashion, it was trying to groom and preen curls and knots into smooth, flat fur. Unfortunately, that's not how his hair works. That had to hurt. :P
sinnison23 your smart
kay craigs, You loyal.
That cat was thinking what a mess! Let me help you! She liked him.
sinnison23 "son what the fuck happened to your fur"
Wow, grooming is a sign of trust and friendship and you just met him
He or she loves you! Big sign of affection 😍🐯
Lovely person. Calm and happy.
Cats love those.^^
you can hear it purring! so awesome!
jellobear Yeah like any other big cat like a lion lol
SrLiam the biggest cat that can purr is cheetahs though
Kazue999 oh
African lions are subtly different than most other big cats. There's probably some more extensive speciation going on there, but it will take a couple hundred thousand years to see where it's going. But in general yeah, most "big cats" are pretty much the same as "small cats" including house cats. It's just the smaller ones can't do as much damage to us when they get excited or angry, so we can keep them as pets. Pumas and cheetahs, not so much... but we CAN relate to them the same way; just gotta be more careful around the bigger ones. Just remember to scritch around the ears. :-)
MrJest2 Someone, forget the name, once wrote: God created cats so humans can pet a lion, or something like that.
Grooming. The serval has accepted him as friendly and deserving of bonding behavior. Very amazing. :-)
I envy your job!! I got to meet 3 servals at the animal hospital here, they are truly amazing. I have loved watching Zeus, so to meet an actual serval in real life was truly amazing experience.
Hahaha You gotta love this guy.. He took it in GOOD STRIDE! :) haha :) Great shot and Great Moment!
Who needs a comb when you have a serval?!
Earth Touch reminds me of a spoof Christmas song. What do you get a wookie for Christmas when he already has a comb
what if that's how cats feel when humans pet them like 'oh my god that's funny that guy is totally obsessed with my fur'
팜한 that's awesome lol
Earth Touch, does this serval have a name? Our cat River does this with me. I take it as a loving thing, "your fur really NEEDS groomed!" in the same spirit as "you don't smell cat enough, let me fix that for you," and "here, I brought you this dead mouse/bird/mole because I know you're hopeless and hunting and I love you too much to starve."
Awwwwwww that's so cute!! The serval's purring and grooming the guy!! That's so sweet!! ^_^
Man, this was beautiful to see how the wild animals feels so lonely in a cage to the point to caress your hair.
Well the cameraman's hair is fabulous. What cat can resist?
Pokadot101 Agreed. ❤️
My boyfriend's cat (who used to be mine) does this when your hair is greasy and dirty... she tries giving you a bath then gets irritated and bites your hair lol i wish i could post a picture of her doing it to me after a long day outside and my hair got sweat in it lol
Bri Johnson We'll had better tell Boris our cameraman to wash his hair then :-P
Bri Johnson They bite to get out the knots and bugs and whatnot.
My boyfriend's cat would freak out in his or my hair after washing it like it was catnip. He would rub his face all around and get tangled in it. I guess he liked almond mint... 😻
+Yasmine Grant catnip is in the mint family so you may be on to something
Steamy Wonder Yes you're right. And it smells great. Lol. PS great name! 😄
my cat does this to, with my mum he always tries, but she's got fairly long hair so it gets caught on his tongue, and he doesn't like that. with me (now that it's growing back after chemo) he just licks my whole head until it's soaking wet.
oh my, how you holding up with that?
my hair has a curl from all the licking :-p
acrogymmer get well !
+acrogymmer Hope you are doing well. Kitty is trying to show you that he loves you!
It's a secret hair growth formula... it gives you purrrrfect hair
The baby was marking it territory, she was calling you hers... she Loves you...its a blessing when animals love their humans with such affection ...
Serval cats are dangerously wonderful animals. They're cute, but wild as well. I would freak out if a serval came stalking me like that :p That man was so patient with the cat.... thanx a lot guys, really enjoyed this video.
good on ya boris, for showing such patience with that big kitty.
Hilarious! Those kittehs are pretty amazing, incredible jumping ability.
I loved his reaction he was so upbeat
Experiences with wild Animals of any kind, Big Cats, whales, Dolphins, Deer, Moose, Fox, Wolves, seals, monkeys (as long as they're good) I mean not trying to eat you for lunch or anything....are in my opinion the most incredible/magical things that a human can have on this earth. When I watch people interacting with them,
I wish I was the one there instead. but that''s just my opinion because I love Animals.
I feel the same way. If only
Nunya Biznis what about seal lions and otters
Aww how perfectly adorable, looked fun.
I have curly hair too and the rest of my family don't. One of our family cats used to do this to my hair but not to my brothers or mum who had shorter hair that wasn't as curly. Just wondering if the curls confused the cat and it was trying to straighten them out. Our cat used to tug at mine gently with his teeth and paws. It's actually a pleasant but strange experience.
This is adorable lol that serval must have thought you needed a haircut xD what a special moment
He's got a gorgeous head of hair.
Watta you want ? You have beautiful hair! Can't you take a complement ? My DOMESTICATED CATS, used to do MY hair styling in the same fashion onto perfection, I felt so flattered...Aye !? 🐱🐈😍😘😎😂😆
That serval is like
SUGOIIIIIIIIIII
"It's ok, it's quite nice." lol cute.
That just shows me how good of a cat the serval is.. really want one!
I just absolutely love this!!!! I'm a big cat person and this just melted my heart🐯🐱
How to get in touch with your inner Serval🐱
Awww how cute! Even the cat thought it was time for a new do! Seemed like it said "What have we here?....hmmmm..let me fix that for you!"
That was fantastic. He was showing affection. Was he druling? He loved your curls and was rubbing his nose, with his scent glands, all over your head.
My heart just exploded! Cuteness overload
Love it....my Norwegian Forest cat does the same.... some cats are attracted to the furry feel of the hair.... cute vid....
Adorable! Such a cute couple! I bet it felt nice to get a serval hairdo? Wonderful video!
Great video; funny, cute and adorable (both cameraman and kitty)!
well its totally clear what's going on here. That serval was dared 25 cents to fix this guys hair by the one sitting over by the gate. had no one noticed it looking back several times like "dude I did it where's my quarter? are you even looking?!"
Serval Salon!
MegaFloyd100
I like his hair before and after the cut, the official one. But this is SOOO cute!
One of my cats, who is now with the angels, did this to me as well as anyone who visited my home. He loved the smell of hair products. I miss him. This vid tugged at my heartstrings.
Waaaaaa!! Tanoshiiii!!
She was accepting you as one of her group.
If you want a cat, or especially a kitten, to accept you then do the same as this Mom does.
Pull the fur up two or three times then smooth it back down and repeat.
It works really well on traumatised cats and even dogs.
Even wild cats can appreciate a full head of hair lol
He was so calm and the serval is like in heven becose you can hear the serval purr,awsome:)
Too cute! What an awesome, amazing experience!
Cat simply mistook cameraman's hair for a bird's nest - they look so alike :D
Ha ha, we wouldn't be surprised if we discovered a wagtail or two hiding out in there.
I love these cats! I would love to have one!
Rich Sherman Hey Rich... no... you wouldn't. They are gorgeous... but no you wouldn't. I've seen the Serval in person. They are beautiful cats... they are as big as a Lab dog. They are wild and if you think the domestic cat... especially the male domestic cat sprays than the Serval is 100 x worse. You can train to walk these cats on a leash though. They are only legal in some states. They can be bred with domestic cats but you would have to go through a breeder and the more Serval in the cat the higher the cost. Back some years ago they could go as high as 28K. Also if you were to get an actual Serval... they are extremely active. If you like Bobcats... there is a breed called the Pixie Bob. They look like the Bobcat. They are completely domestic and can sometimes be taken away from you if you can't show paperwork proving they are a Pixie Bob and not the Bobcat. The Bobcat is illegal and can be quite vicious.
Your comparison to a lab or any other big, energetic dog is spot on. If you have a large fenced in property the cat can roam around freely in and hunt on, and time to spend playing with it, a Serval can be somewhat of a pet. But keeping one in a house? No way in hell, unless you want everything you own destroyed and a very unhappy cat!!
I once was on a hike in a local park, and spotted a bobcat. It was kind of weird - I caught sight of it out of the corner of my eye; it was sitting on a tree stump next to the hiking trail. I looked over and thought, "Wow... that's a pretty big house cat"... then looked closer. The look in it's eyes was both familiar and strange, the ultimate in "feral". It just calmly watched me passing by, relaxing in the sun. I probably could have walked right up to it and it wouldn't have flinched. But I left it alone - that clearly was the right thing to do. A very strange encounter.
Tatiana A
Lol
"It's ok, is quite nice....arghh. " this made me laugh and smile.
The serval skipped a lot of formalities and got straight to grooming his new friend.
"My first hairdo in 20 years!" The serval can tell! XD
Must have washed his hair with catnip!
cory prid I’m like actually crying right now that was just to funny
The new season of Kemono friends looks great.
Serval-Chan found her hidden talent
Serval: "What kind of FRIENDS are you?" *Bite his hair*
The cat was probably thinking, what we normally think when we see a cute animal: it looks so fluffy I wanna touch it
Whyd you cut it dude?? Us fro bros gatta represent!
nitramletnan Agreed
nitramletnan
Ikr !!! D:
Now that poor cat has lice
Haha, thank you Kemono Friends, I identified the cat as a serval before it was named as such. But wow, what an experience that must have been.
Very cute lol so adorable the bond they have. :-)
Bengals cats ( not tigers) like to do that too to people they consider "their" people
Lynn Diebolt So do regular cats. One of my shelter mixes does that to me. :-)
cats are owesome!!!
"This can't be real. It must be a wig. Where's the scalp? Must find the scalp!"
So adorable!!!
l love your hair grow it out wild like ;) meoow
When did Ricky Gervais start doing wildlife camera work?
Damnit! You beat me to it!
Lol the kitty was marking him claiming him as its own
That’s hilarious, my cat grooms my hair too. Except mine is a domestic shorthair.
Such beautiful cats
Don't eat me!!
Wow, you are a friend that can make documentaries! Amazing!
That cat is a social facilitator. He will present your smell to the others.
Tanosi~~~!!!!!!!!!
Serval you must not eat him.
One of my cats grooms my hair after I wash it. It hurts but it feels so good at the same time. I can only imagine the pain the cameraman had to endure.
I think the cat really liked Boris' hair. Boris looks good with his trimmed hair! Cat love. Get more! >^..^< meow!
I feel your pain, Boris. I wouldn't call myself a cat person, but for some reason, they love the shit out of me. Even the feral cats in my neighborhood will come along and rub against my legs, and it's not like I feed them or anything.
+FreedomFiend That's so sweet!
+FreedomFiend You ARE a cat person then. Cats obviously know it, and you just need to admit it. Cats are cool.
I have a friend with whom cats love to rub against his legs and sit on, and while he likes cats he's allergic to them/their fur, lol. Weird how things work out.
Who knows? Maybe you are a Khajiit and you don't know it hahahahaha
looked better with the longer hair buddy
What a beautiful moment you caught on camera.
That hair...SOMEONE had to do something with it. Thank that cat for trying.
*Reaches for Poke Ball*
A SERVAL HAIRDO
SuperLibbieZz forget all about a cow lick he going to have a major cat lick from now on!
1:15 - "What you use on there, Pantene? TRESemme'?"
I went through a very similar experience with my roommates pitbull - I was using a shampoo I normally don't; flopped down on the couch and he just came right up, sniffed my hair and stared licking it. We know he doesn't normally like anyone's hair after its been recently washed, but he apparently likes Crew shampoo.
smells like a mouse, i must find it!!
Tabenaide kudasai!! (please don't eat me)
Suuuuuuuuuuuuugoi!
I wonder if the serval act is like domestic cats. When they eat your hair they're grooming you and saying "I love you"
I love how you could here the cat purr.
Nice hair man
What an awesome pet that cat would be. If the neighbors piss you off you could just tell the cat to kill.
My cat do that each time I get out the shower. Really funny!
Once he started laughing, he couldn't have stopped the cerval if he tried!
