Move over, martial arts masters! An adorable Munchkin Bengal cat named Ringo is showing the world that you don’t need long legs to become a kung fu superstar.
In a hilarious video making the rounds online, the tiny feline demonstrates his impressive martial arts moves with a little help from his human. And judging by his serious expression, Ringo is taking this training session very seriously.
The video begins with Ringo being held upright in his owner’s arms as he prepares for his big performance. After what looks like a respectful bow, the little cat gets into fighting position, ready to take on his first opponent: a sheet of toilet paper.
With a little assistance from his human, Ringo delivers a series of perfectly timed paw strikes, slicing through the delicate paper like a miniature martial arts champion. His tiny front legs stretch forward as he performs one move after another, looking surprisingly convincing for a cat who probably spends most of his day napping.
Of course, his human is doing much of the work, but don’t tell Ringo that! He’s clearly the star of this show.

Viewers couldn’t get enough of his adorable fighting stance, with one commenter declaring that Ringo has some of the best kung fu posture they’ve ever seen.
Others couldn’t help wondering whether all this training had something to do with his feline sister, Mango, a fluffy Ragdoll who might want to start practicing her own defensive moves.
Perhaps Ringo is preparing for the next sibling disagreement over toys, treats or the best sleeping spot in the house. Whatever his motivation, he’s certainly putting on an entertaining performance.
And while Ringo may not be ready to challenge a real kung fu master, he’s already earned his black belt in cuteness.
Watch out, Mango! There’s a new martial arts expert in the house, and he has four tiny paws and absolutely no fear!
