About Clapping cat AI on Cicadas

This page makes the clapping cat meme with your own pet. Add one photo of your cat or dog and pick a scene: in Smug clap your pet stands up on the sofa, opens its front legs wide and claps; in Classic clap it sits upright on a plain background and claps in a steady rhythm; in Green screen clap it claps in front of flat green so you can key it into your own edit. MiniMax H3 Max draws your pet in the scene with clapping sounds: vertical, 5, 10 or 15 seconds. The original meme clip is not used, and no people appear.

Smug clap: up on the sofa, arms wide, then the claps.

MiniMax H3 Max, 5 seconds with sound, vertical, from one photo of a cat. On a living room sofa the grey tabby stands up on its hind legs, opens its front legs wide and claps its front paws, faster than the meme's slow double clap. Stripes, white chest and green eyes match the photo, with two front paws throughout. Sound: a meow, then claps.

Why use Cicadas for Clapping cat AI

Your pet, clapping

The photo is a reference, so the model draws your pet again in the scene. In our clips the grey tabby kept its stripes, white chest and green eyes, and the terrier kept its brindle coat and teal collar, each with two front paws throughout.

Three scenes, nothing to write

Smug clap, Classic clap and Green screen clap are written for you; edit the words for another room or another pose. In our smug clip the claps come faster than the meme's slow double clap.

See the price of every clip first

At 480P, 5 seconds is 63 credits, 10 seconds is 125 and 15 seconds is 188; at 768P they are 100, 200 and 300. In dollars at 480P: about $0.77, $1.53 and $2.30 on the $4.90 first pack. A failed generation returns its credits.

Claps, not a song

The model makes the sound with the picture: in our clips, claps in a rhythm, a meow before the smug clap, and in the classic clip one of two automated listeners also heard a light xylophone tune. No song from the meme is used.

What the clapping cat meme is

The clapping cat is a short clip of a black cat that stands up, grins and slowly claps, shared as a reaction on Instagram and YouTube Shorts in October 2026. Sites that remake it describe a longer version in which someone offers the cat a treat first and it offers a paw at the end. This page makes the clap with your own pet, with real paws, and does not include the original clip or its sound.

Which pet photo works for a clapping clip

Use one photo of one cat or dog, sitting or standing and facing the camera, with both front paws and the whole body in frame. The model has to draw the paws meeting, so a photo where they are hidden under the body or cut off at the edge gives it less to go on. Plain, even light helps with dark coats. Our samples were a grey tabby on a sofa and a terrier with a teal collar. No people in the photo.

A green screen for your edits

Green screen clap puts your pet on flat green with no props, so you can drop it over another video in CapCut, Premiere or any editor with a chroma key: pick the green, raise the tolerance a little, and the background disappears. Our dog clip had a soft shadow under the paws, which a slightly higher tolerance removes.

  • “Vertical video from a fixed camera at eye level in a cosy living room. The animal from Image 1 stands up on its hind legs facing the camera, opens its front legs wide, then gives two slow, smug claps of its front paws with a knowing grin, and holds the pose. Keep the animal's face, coat colours and markings as in the photo, with exactly two front paws and no human hands or teeth. One continuous shot. Sound: two soft claps and a short playful sting, no vocals. No people, no text, no logos.”

  • “Vertical video from a fixed camera at eye level. The animal from Image 1 sits upright facing the camera against a plain soft beige background, then claps its two front paws together again and again in a steady rhythm, with a small head bob and a pleased expression. Keep the animal's face, coat colours and markings as in the photo, with exactly two front paws. One continuous shot. Sound: soft paw claps on the beat over a light original instrumental, no vocals. No people, no text, no logos.”

  • “Vertical video from a fixed camera at eye level. The animal from Image 1 sits upright facing the camera in front of a flat, evenly lit chroma-key green background and claps its two front paws together again and again in a steady rhythm, with a small head bob.

Sound: soft paw claps on the beat, no music, no vocals. No people, no text, no logos.”

Clapping cat AI FAQ

Tested on Cicadas · reviewed 2026-10-18

Recorded on 2026-10-18 with MiniMax H3 Max reference-to-video through fal.ai, each request sent once with the exact scene prompt of this page: 5 seconds, 9:16, 480P with sound, from the site's AI-made sample photos of a grey tabby cat and a terrier. Smug clap: back in 13 seconds; on a living room sofa the cat stands up, opens its front legs wide and claps, faster than the meme's slow double clap. Classic clap: back in 14 seconds; the cat sits upright on a plain beige background and claps in a steady rhythm. Green screen clap: back in 14 seconds; the terrier sits up on flat green and claps, with a soft shadow under its paws. Both animals kept their markings, and each has two front paws throughout. Automated listening results differed: one model described claps in all three clips; the other described claps and a final chime in Smug, xylophone music in Classic, and whip-like cracks in Green screen. Both described a meow in Smug. Neither reported speech or singing. Other pets, 10 and 15 seconds and 768P were not run. The meme description and the other site's price were read on those sites' own pages on 2026-10-18.
