If I had a nickel for every time Bobby Moynihan dressed as Mister Mistoffelees from Cats on SNL, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.
Elderly sapphic women who make sex puns and have way too many cats. This feels less like a sketch and more like a prophetic vision for roughly 60% of my friends
That was me. The funniest part is actually that Butternut is a boy, and the kitten is a calico. The only way a calico is male is if it has Kleinfelter's Syndrome, meaning that Butternut is probably female and has manipulated people into believing she is male.
Areej Mandurah that's true it could be an improvised line indeed - Kate's reaction could be part of the sketch but to me her 'stop it' after that S and M line sounded more like Kate whispering to Kristen rather then Barbara to Furonica. The entire tone is different.
0:45 (McKinnon) "You can find him-a-layin on the couch!" (Wiig) "You should do stand up! You are a regular Katt Williams!" (McKinnon's face says it all!)
When I first saw this and she says "And you'll find 'Him-a-layin' on the couch," I laughed so hard that my eyes were full of tears.. Thank you for that. I love when you lose it from laughing so hard.
I love the Whiskers Are We sketches. They are so damn funny. Love that awkward comedy. It's one of my faves. Plus this is Kristen Wiig and Kate McKinnon. It literally can't NOT be funny. The one with Charlize Theron is hilarious too. They all are.
God I love them soooo much xx Kate and Kristin are literally the only 2 people in the world that make me genuinely laugh until I'm crying xx and like someone said only Kristin Wiig can make Kate break character xxx
This is sketch comedy PURE GOLD. It not only makes you laugh but it also makes you feel good inside. It's an amazing alloy of two great comedic talents.
***** no matter what,....I still think the sketch was just funny as hell. Even with the boob / nipple grab.....still funny as hell. Didn't even expect it......or even Kate for that matter.
This is the comic fun you get when you pair up 2 comic geniuses. Mix them up along with people like Tina Fey, Amy Poehler, Rachel Dratch, Maya Rudolph, etc and you're sure to get great mayhem.
I think during the whole length of the sketch both of them had a hard time trying not to laugh, which they failed on a couple of times. This was hilarious, I love these two!
"If she appears in your mirror, its over" the delivery on this gets me every time
It's so good
This is one of their best skits of all time
And you don't even have to say, "Candyman".
I’m considering using this for my dating profile. If I dated.
Classic Wiig deadpan 🤣
I cried actual tears. 🤣🤣
I think this entire sketch was a contest between Kristen and Kate to get each other to break character.
SAME!
Now there's the skit where Aidy & Kate own an apple farm.
I’m scared as soon as I clicked on this and they said cats I looked at the ad and it was an ad for cats
The two of them together are amazing. They play off each other perfectly.
I totally agree... I'd bet on it...
These two together are comedy heaven.

holy shit they predicted the cats musical comeback
Ironic that Bobby's cat costume looks way better than the CGI abomination they used in the movie.

"Himalayan cat but you can catch him a-layin' on the couch"

Dude that kittens not a Himalayan I can’t believe no one else said that?!?!?

Fairly certain they used the sketch as an excuse to cuddle kittens XD
Wouldn't you?
and pinch nipples
Daffy Duck again, wouldn't you?
Hahahaha, cuddling all those cute tiny kittens, can't say I blame them :D
I bafookin would too tbh
They couldn't keep a straight face😂😂
Ikr lol
Kimmy _G Kate certainly couldn’t
Only a gay one.
Its part of the skit i think....
CAUSE THEY WERENT STRAIGHT AT ALL XD
That Himalayan joke was the most corniest and funniest pun I've ever heard.
Sometimes those corny ones hit the right spot & are hilarious! 😂😂😂
Kate and Kristen: “Cats”
Me: *dead laughing in the floor*
hhahahaha me too
Don't forget Bobby in the cat costume. But his not part of it! 😂😂😂😂
When Kate says "we are on cameraaa" in that voice oh my goodness she is adorable
Every time I get to that point I think, "Okay, Effie Trinket." Even though I know Effie was played by someone else. 😂
"This is dizzy, dizzy is into S and M, Saucers and Milk"😂😂
She also pees on her partners.
I thought they were gonna follow that up with something personal. Wasted moment. Ugh! Was funny tho.
I actually had a tuxedo cat named Dizzy that looked just like her, except mine was male.

"That is my nipple and I think you know that!"
"I think I know you like it."

As a lesbian in love with both these women and surrounded by cats, this is my favorite sketch of all time
As a Hetro male, mine as well. Especially the nipple scratch. Meow
Only Wiig can make McKinnon crack like that. Two SNL icons makes one HILARIOUS skit! 😂
Michael Richmond no it wasn't it was the best
2:20 did Kate break character? Cried while laughing because of the part with the pinching. And also we need a whiskers r we every week
yeah she did
She definitely broke character and who can blame her. This skit is insanely funny.
twice. she said in her regular voice i do have a type.
She breaks character a lot. It's part of her shtick.
Not possible. They put 3 sketches' worth of hilarious lines into one.
Kate whispering "stop it" at 3:29 is the funniest thing to me and it makes me wonder if Kristen was improvising the line before it.
Areej Mandurah that was part of the sketch
Areej Mandurah that's true it could be an improvised line indeed - Kate's reaction could be part of the sketch but to me her 'stop it' after that S and M line sounded more like Kate whispering to Kristen rather then Barbara to Furonica. The entire tone is different.
Yeah, it definitely seemed more like 'please help, I can't stop laughing'
And when she made the Kat Williams joke 1:04

There's nothing more serious than comedy...
...wait
When I first saw this and she says "And you'll find 'Him-a-layin' on the couch," I laughed so hard that my eyes were full of tears..
Thank you for that. I love when you lose it from laughing so hard.
Still my favourite 'Whiskers R We' sketch. Mckinnon and Wiig have real comedic chemistry. Brilliant.
Kristen is the only person who can make Kate break character
person 17 Aidy Bryant can do it too.
And Emily Blunt 😅
I need a sketch comedy show with just these two.

Kate has the cutest dimples 😍
This is all I've ever wanted, Wiig and McKinnon.
"Keep it in your jorts" is by far my favourite line. But the rest of the script is still just too funny I love these two ❤️
I’m weirdly attracted to Kristen’s character in this skit lol.

This what happens when two legends perform together!
You gotta be damn good to make Kate McKinnon break character 😂 but it was Kristen Wiig, so it makes sense
She broke herself too
she broke Kate!!! thats tough!
"He deserves a pinch." The delivery of that line made me wheeze out nearly all the air in my lungs.
"Butternut is a master of psychological manipulation" lol
Well she convinced those women that she is male..calico are always female...and convinced that woman she was a cat with just a suggestion.
If she appears in your mirror, it's over.
