Bento the Keyboard Cat was adopted by Charlie  Schmidt in 2009 after 1984 footage of his previous cat, Fatso—a.k.a. the original Keyboard Cat—went viral in 2007. Bento then became a YouTube star in his own right with a string of videos and commercials that featured him pawing a small electronic piano.

The internet seems legitimately sad about the situation two.  Lots of people sending best wishes to Bento’s owner and sharing their grief.
