Apple the Cat dreads the morning alarm clock, the exhausting search for something to wear and the misery of trying to cook a decent breakfast without opposable thumbs. It's a tough life out there for a hungry kitty, who just wants to eat some god damn pancakes before a day spent slogging away at the local mouse population. Watch below as Apple navigates the kitchen in an attempt to make a fuel to power her through the hunt:
The video is part of a fundraiser for the New York Coalition Against Hunger, which represents over one thousand not-for-profit soup kitchens and food pantries and also seeks innovative ways to make sure all Americans have access to food. They're trying to raise $5,000 in 30 days and have harnessed the power of the Internet cat the make it happen.
