The Monday Left Me Broken Cat, famously known as Mr. Peebles, became a viral sensation through a series of videos where the cat’s expressive yellow eyes appear to 'sing' the lyrics to Avicii’s hit song 'Waiting For Love.' The meme originally gained massive popularity on TikTok, where creators used the cat's soulful and slightly melancholic expression to represent the collective dread of starting a new week. Mr. Peebles' wide-eyed gaze and the dramatic pitch of the song created a perfect storm of relatability and humor, turning a simple cat video into a symbol for exhaustion, heartbreak, and the universal struggle of getting through a Monday. It is frequently used in 'core' style edits and green-screen compositions to highlight dramatic or unfortunate life situations.
