They say curiosity kills the cat, but sometimes, it just shocks the little furballs.

A light gray Bengal kitten named Oat apparently loves to stick her snout where it doesn't belong, as a now viral TikTok video shows.

"Oat Investigated sparking water today," her owner, Haley, an artist, wrote in the caption of her vid.

The cute clip shows the little cat eyeing her mom's glass of fizzy water before trying a sip. The bubbles are too much for this fluffy kitten, and she rears back and hysterically shakes her head in disgust, making her bell jingle furiously.

After laughing at her pet, Haley asks, "Is that a lot?"

Oat immediately goes back to investigating the water as if the bubbly shock didn't happen.

TikTokers loved Oat's response to sparkling water, and the clip boasts over 1 million views and counting.

TikTokers love Oat the cat's curiosity

TikTokers were here for the cat's thirst for knowledge, though a few admitted they don't like fizzy water either.

"The way Oat went right back to looking at it immediately," gushed one.

Another joked, "When the water fights back. Oat learned a lesson that day."

Other TikTokers just dubbed the water too "spicy" for the little kitten.

Who knows if this curious kitten has learned her lesson. But regardless, Oat's dislike of sparkling water has the internet delighted.
