The Lion King is a firm favourite for most people when it comes to classic Disney movies - but it appears animals love it too.
And one golden retriever and his kitten sibling can’t get enough of the 2019 computer animated remake, which brings the story to life.
In a TikTok video posted by the account @nobu_smaj, golden retriever Nobu is standing in front of the television set with his tail wagging, with Caesar the cat sitting on the media stand engrossed in the movie.
The scene playing shows Simba’s ‘I Just Can’t Wait To Be King’ song, with a whole savannah of animals parading behind him.
As the song plats, Caesar even creeps closer to the screen for a better look at the lion cubs.
Posted by owner Bria Smajstrla, the video is captioned: “dreaming of being king” - and has been viewed more than 865,400 times.
One viewer joked: “I wonder if they talk about it later?”, whilst another commended them on their movie taste.
Now, some might say it was simply a coincidence that the dog and cat were both watching the TV, but a second video posted weeks later sees the duo sitting on a bed beside their baby twin brothers with the film on.
And much like the first clip, they’re captivated by the Disney classic, which stars Seth Rogan and Beyonce.
And when Caesar and Nobu aren’t watching The Lion King, they’re reenacting it. Another TikTok saw a compilation of the canine and moggy play fighting Mufassa and Scar style, clearly taking inspiration from the film.
Golden retrievers have proven to be one of the most popular breeds on the video sharing app, racking up 14 billion views.
But they’re not the only dogs to be fans of Disney - with one dalmatian obsessed with a very apt movie.
Little Dottie loves to watch the 1961 Disney classic 101 Dalmatians - and fits right in with the cast as she watches a scene where Perdita, Pongo and the pups are watching a Kanine Krunchies advert, jumping up at the TV for a closer look in the adorable TikTok video.
