Millions of TikTokers think the unique "solution" is hysterical, as the cute video boasts over 7 million views and more than 598,000 likes.

"My dad saw the rake at Marshall's and knew my mom didn't like the feeling of the warts on Mocha's skin, so he bought it for her to use," Abigail explained to Newsweek.

Yet while most TikTokers are amused, a few are worried.

The unusual petting method has concerned some TikTokers, who sounded off in the comments.

So: how does Mocha feel about being raked?

"Mocha loves it," explained Abigail. "I wanted to share it because I thought it was cute and funny."

Abigail has shared a few follow-up videos, as she's been surprised by the adverse responses.

"I'm a little surprised by some of the reactions," she told the outlet. "She begs you to keep going when you stop. I would say the majority think it's funny and agree that it's a great solution for the problem."

One follow-up clip shows Mocha nudging her owner for more scratches from the small rake, and another shows her still getting normal pets from her human.

Mocha is clearly loved and gets lots of petting. But he may like the rake scratches best.
