Cats perish in 'Quiet Place'.

Quiet Place- Challenge prompts cat owners to film their pet's apocalyptic survival skills à la Frodo in the LOTR trilogy. Evoking a dystopian A Quiet Place Day One, owners must keep their cats silent for over a minute.

Would Your Cat Survive the Quiet Place Apocalypse?

The sci-fi prequel "A Quiet Place: Day One," stars Lupita Nyong'o and Joseph Quinn, but the real breakout star is a cat named Frodo ([spoilers]). In the film, Frodo is the purrfect survivor, but in real life, would your cat be so quiet?

TikTok users are now putting their cats to the test in the "Quiet Place" cat challenge. The challenge is simple: grab your cat, your camera, and run for your life!

Most cats, it turns out, are not as silent as Frodo. A video by TikTok user @sustopodcast, featuring their cat Margaret, has amassed over 7 million views. Margaret fails the challenge with a raspy meow, proving that while cute, she'd give you away to the monsters.

Multi-cat owners are also getting in on the action. TikTok user @birchcanread tested all six of their cats, with four "failing with flying colors." Marshmallow and Goldie redeemed the group with their quiet stares, but the consensus is clear: our cats may get us killed.
