My TikTok ad got 500k views from a video of my cat knocking over a lamp

I was running a small campaign for a local plant shop in Austin, and I used a clip of my cat, Mr. Whiskers, causing chaos. The ad got flagged for 'irrelevant content,' but the views and comments were insane. Has anyone else had an ad blow up for totally the wrong reason?

Seen that happen before. The algorithm loves chaos even when it misses the point. At least you got the numbers.

My last viral post was just a typo, so the algorithm clearly loves my mistakes.

Wait your post went viral from a TYPO. That's actually insane.
