Imagine browsing through Instagram, seeing this sad cat, and falling in love. That’s what happened to me, and then I fell into the conspiracy theory that the cat is, in fact, Jake Gyllenhaal’s cat.

So Jake Gyllenhaal has an instagram for his cat Mr. Flufflestiltskin and Mr. Flufflestiltskin only follows, and I cannot stress this enough, Cats The Musical. pic.twitter.com/bNCy5c9BoY

Sure, the tweet misgenders Ms. Fluffle Stilt Skin and says for certain that she is Jake’s cat, but we don’t have complete confirmation. What we do know is that the cat has been making fans fall in love and has quite a following. Does she actually belong to Jake Gyllenhaal? Does he spend his free time just taking fun pictures of her? If so, maybe I love Jake Gyllenhaal?
