但凡这两天刷过手机的人，几乎都绕不开“萝卜纸巾猫”。

萝卜、纸巾，再加上一只正努力“思考”的猫，这些原本毫无关联的元素，成了年末爆火的抽象视频。

Over the last few days, a viral video trend dubbed the "carrot tissue cat" challenge has swept Chinese social media, sparking nationwide memes, mass participation and even a jokingly named "national exam" for pets.

“萝卜纸巾猫”到底是什么梗?

这段视频的起点，是博主的一次突发奇想——她想训练自家猫分辨物品，希望像训狗那样，建立起“听指令—做选择—拿奖励”的流程。

但现实往往不按计划走。猫好像懂了，又好像没懂；训练看似马上就要成功，却总差那么一点点。

The trend began when a pet blogger tried to train her cat to identify a carrot and a tissue using a dog-style reward system. Instead of smooth progress, the cat hovered constantly between almost there and utter confusion, repeatedly resetting just before success.

猫咪犹犹豫豫的小表情、谨慎又好奇的动作，再加上主人时而崩溃、时而继续热情鼓励的态度，让视频天然就带着笑点。

猫咪可能没把萝卜选准，却学会了观察人的表情；很多人也突然意识到，原来自家宠物真的会看脸色、会试探边界。

The cat pauses, tests boundaries, and looks bewildered; the owner swings between frustration and unwavering praise.

Along the way, unexpected realizations emerged. Many pet owners became aware of the fact that their pets were far better at reading emotions than they had imagined — watching expressions, testing limits, silently negotiating.

很快，别的宠物博主也纷纷加入战局。全国各地的猫猫、狗狗、兔子、鹦鹉，甚至乌龟，都被拉来“参加考试”，甚至衍生出“全国动物统考”的新话题。

尽管这种考试最多的结局是：哎，算了别管了，真棒。但对于宠物来说未必是坏事，至少和主人互动的时间变多了，零食也跟着变多了。

Soon, pet bloggers across the country joined in, enrolling cats, dogs, rabbits, parrots and even turtles. Most attempts ended with a resigned "Forget it — good job!" Yet the pets hardly lost out: they enjoyed more interaction, more attention and plenty of treats.

心理学中有一个概念叫“无条件积极关注（unconditional positive regard）”，指的是不以表现和成就为前提，而是单纯基于存在本身的接纳。

在“纸巾萝卜猫”的视频中，很多人看见了这种难得却稀缺的体验：失败也好，搞砸也好，仍有人对你说一句——“真棒！”

There is a concept in psychology called "unconditional positive regard" — acceptance that is not tied to achievement, but to one's very existence.

In the "carrot tissue cat" videos, many people found a rare sense of warmth: even when things go wrong, reassurance remains — there's still someone saying, "Good job!"
