A cat accidentally created a late-night jump scare after sneezing straight into a bowl of flour and covering its face in white powder.

The viral clip shows the cat sitting in a dark kitchen, its face completely dusted in flour with wide glowing eyes. What looked like a horror movie moment was actually just a perfectly timed sneeze and a very messy accident.

Online, people joked they would have moved out immediately, while others said the cat simply discovered baking the hard way.
