「黑猫鼓掌」绿幕梗刷屏：原帖一周获赞超250万，鼓掌猫被P进各种现场
一只咧嘴笑着、用一双「人手」鼓掌的黑猫，正在成为这个秋天社交平台上最常见的反应素材之一。据梗文化资料站 Know Your Meme 记录，「黑猫鼓掌」（Black Cat Clapping）源自 Instagram 用户 merkurianin（本名 Aleksandr Kim）2026年9月25日发布的一段喜剧短视频：他给猫喂食，画面中的猫随即咧嘴而笑、抬起双手为他鼓掌，还试图与他握手。需要说明的是，这只猫由 AI 生成并合成进画面，并非真实拍摄的宠物。
传播数据方面，Know Your Meme 统计称，原帖在略多于一周的时间里收获超过250万个赞。9月28日，TikTok 用户 @asian5767 把这只黑猫做成绿幕素材、放进「逃课」的场景里，视频一周内播放量超过380万；9月30日，@mis2027seniors 的版本在5天内播放超过170万；10月1日，@yeltiktok 的版本4天内播放超过150万。
这类二创的玩法，是把鼓掌猫抠图放进各种现场，用它代表一种「讽刺式叫好」：为糟糕的行为鼓掌，或者在最不合时宜的场合大声起哄。Know Your Meme 把「黑猫鼓掌」列入「过去一周最大的梗」之一；该站10月13日的趋势指南称，这只猫仍在 Instagram 和 TikTok 上走红，网友的二创剪辑越来越复杂，让这个格式持续保鲜。Verge Magazine、meme.com 等网站也相继刊出解说文章，梳理这个梗的来历。

'Black Cat Clapping' Green-Screen Meme Spreads: Original Post Tops 2.5 Million Likes in a Week
A black cat grinning with a human smile and clapping with human hands has become one of this fall's most reused reaction clips on social media. According to meme database Know Your Meme, 'Black Cat Clapping' began with a comedy video posted on September 25, 2026, by Instagram user merkurianin (Aleksandr Kim): he feeds his cat, and the cat smiles, applauds him and tries to shake his hand. The cat was generated with AI and composited into the scene; it is not a real pet filmed performing.
By Know Your Meme's count, the original post gained more than 2.5 million likes in just over a week. On September 28, TikTok user @asian5767 turned the cat into a green-screen asset in a skipping-class scenario, and the video passed 3.8 million views in a week; a version by @mis2027seniors on September 30 drew over 1.7 million views in five days, and one by @yeltiktok on October 1 passed 1.5 million views in four days.
In these remixes, creators drop the clapping cat into new scenes as a form of sarcastic applause: cheering on bad behavior, or clapping loudly at the worst possible moment. Know Your Meme included the format in its roundup of the biggest memes of the past week, and its October 13 trending guide said the cat is still going viral across Instagram and TikTok, with increasingly elaborate edits keeping the format alive. Sites including Verge Magazine and meme.com have also published explainers tracing the meme's origin.
