Three minutes might not seem like a long time, but to one very hungry kitten, it’s apparently an absolute catastrophe!
Meet Herbert, an adorable little foster kitten who has some very strong opinions about mealtime. And when his dinner arrived a whole three minutes late, he made sure everyone knew just how unacceptable that was.
In a hilarious YouTube Short shared by @malpluscats, the tiny fluffball can be seen angrily munching away at his food while letting out the funniest little grumbles between bites.
It’s almost as if he’s trying to eat dinner and lecture his human at the same time!
With his fluffy cheeks, tiny paws and mouth stuffed full of food, Herbert sounds like a miniature grumpy old man filing an official complaint.
And the funniest part? He doesn’t even stop eating to express his outrage!
Every few bites, the dramatic little kitten waddles away from his plate to deliver another very serious meow before rushing right back to his food. After all, he can’t risk letting dinner get cold while he’s busy complaining.

Viewers couldn’t get enough of his adorable attitude.
“Little man has big feelings,” one person joked.
“The angry nom noms are sending me 😂,” another commented.
Someone else perfectly summed up Herbert’s terrible ordeal: “He’s gotta tell you off but poor baby is obviously STARVING! Three whole minutes late! The horror!”
But beneath all that hilarious kitten drama is an even sweeter detail.
Herbert’s foster mom explained that the little guy keeps looking over his shoulder between bites to make sure she’s still nearby. Apparently, this demanding customer doesn’t just expect prompt service. He wants his favorite human to keep him company, too!
“I love that he looks for you. It’s precious,” one viewer wrote.
And once Herbert finishes his very important dinner, he climbs straight into his caregiver’s lap, his tiny face still covered in food.
Just like that, the grumpy little customer transforms into an affectionate cuddle bug.
It’s impossible not to fall in love with this feisty little fluffball. Herbert may be tiny, but his personality is absolutely enormous.
One thing’s for sure: His foster mom might want to set an alarm for tomorrow’s dinner. We don’t think Herbert is prepared to tolerate another three-minute delay!
