Big Dogs Won’t Enter a Room With a Cat in It in Hilarious Video

A viral TikTok video has been making the rounds, featuring two large Mastiffs, Phyllis and Murphy, who refuse to step into a room occupied by a cat.

The video shows the dogs standing at the doorway, hesitant to enter despite their owner, Sabrena Morgan, inviting them inside.

In the clip, Sabrena sits on a bed next to her cat, Zoe, while Phyllis and Murphy glare at her from the doorway. Despite her encouragement, the dogs make no move to join her.

At one point, Sabrena even highlights how much progress Zoe has made by being completely “unbothered,” while pointing out that the dogs still have a long way to go.

Phyllis and Murphy, the two giant Mastiffs, appear visibly intimidated by the cat in this amusing TikTok video shared by their owner, Sabrena Morgan.

The short clip captures a humorous standoff as Sabrena tries to gather her pets for a “family meeting.” The dogs remain at the door, shifting their gaze between Zoe and their mom, while Zoe calmly stares back.

Despite Sabrena’s repeated invitations for the dogs to join her and Zoe in the room, Phyllis and Murphy remain rooted to the spot. Sabrena asks, “Alright, do you guys want to come in and have a family meeting? Anybody wanna come in?”

She then pans the camera to Zoe, noting how the cat is “unbothered” and “here for the meeting.”

Later, Sabrena humorously questions her dogs, asking if they “feel betrayed because I’m sitting here with this cat.”

The Mastiffs continue to stare at Zoe and their mom, prompting Sabrena to remark that they have “literally made no progress.” She then praises Zoe for her “progress” in being “absolutely unbothered.”

The video shows the Mastiffs looking as if they are “frozen in time,” making no attempt to move. This isn’t the first time Sabrena Morgan has shared a video of her dogs’ reluctance to enter a room because of Zoe.

In a similar earlier video, Phyllis and Murphy stood at the doorway, staring at Zoe, who appeared completely unaffected.

This hilarious interaction has resonated with many viewers, showcasing the amusing dynamics between big dogs and a small but confident cat.
