This cat balancing a frog on its head has located its inner zen

'Best animal on the internet' is a hotly-contested category in my non-existant award ceremony.

For a while it looked like the French bulldog struggling to retrieve its tennis ball from a sofa might take home the prize, and there was a late challenge from DMX llama, but no, this guy is definitely deserving of the accolade.

Look how little he cares about having a potentially delicious, bite-size frog perched atop its head, wearing an expression that suggests he is simultaneously contemplating waterfalls, nothingness and complex, astral matters.

The video is 55 seconds long but it looks as though the balancing act may have gone on for days, and comes from a Japanese blog with no explanation.

He just is.
