This is the remarkable moment a rat turns the table on a cat – in a Tom and Jerry-esque video.
The footage, captured in Malaysia on Sunday, shows the feisty rodent intimidating the feline by employing aggressive tactics.
The video, which was posted on Facebook and racked up over 50,000 views, begins with the cat wondering around an outside corridor and then poking its head into one of the adjoining drains.
Then suddenly the rat appears in a flurry of jumps and squeaks causing the cat to back off.
The moggy attempts to compose itself, however the rat continues jumping fiercely in the cat’s direction causing it to keep backing up.
The tabby cat, which has a docked tail, then sheepishly strolls off clearly not having the belly for a confrontation with the rat.
What makes it more embarrassing is the fact that the cat is far bigger than the rat, and the rat looks to be fairly small for its species.
In this battle of David vs Goliath, David won.
The rat proves that confidence and front is everything.
