A new social media craze called What The Fluff is sweeping the Internet where pets are tricked into thinking their owner has vanished under a blanket - and their perplexed reactions are brilliant
The prank is being played on cats and dogs but even birds are being fooled too
The challenge sees a person get the attention of their pet and stand in a doorway with a blanket held in front of them
They lift the blanket over their head, drop it and scarper out of sight before the blanket lands on the floor
Their pets are left looking at the empty space where their owner was - and wondering where they've gone
