Toc Toc dance with your cat or dog: can a pet do the knock dance?

Updated:

Short answer

Yes. Upload one sharp, front-facing photo of your cat or dog. The pet stands upright on its hind legs, hops on one leg, knocks the air with a front paw and spreads both front paws wide at the end. Check the free 5-second preview before you spend credits, since pet photos give less predictable results.

Pet photos that work

  • Big, sharp face: the pet fills at least a third of the frame.
  • Looking at the lens: a pet sitting up beats a curled-up nap.
  • One animal per photo: two pets in one picture confuse the model.
  • Good light: avoid costumes or toys that cover the face.

What the pet does

The pet keeps its species and stands upright on its hind legs for the whole dance. It hops on one hind leg, knocks the air with a front paw, turns around, kicks its back feet forward and ends with both front paws spread wide. The model invents the movement, so it looks more like a cartoon than a documentary.

Questions people ask

Will my cat really stand on two legs?

In the video the pet stands upright for the whole dance. The model invents the movement, so the result changes with every photo.

Which pets work best?

Cats and dogs with a clear face turned to the camera. Birds, fish and small animals far from the lens are harder for the model to read.

Can my pet be next to me in the photo?

Not for this template. It takes one subject per photo, so crop the picture to the pet alone.
