A trend on TikTok has animal owners spinning in circles with their furry creatures, but some are now speaking out against it.

How Are People Spinning With Their Animals On TikTok?

Cosmopolitan calls the trend "a combination of weird, cute, and at times distressing since some of these animals are not having it."

The whimsical videos set to Taylor Swift's "August" typically start with the TikTok user approaching an animal.

The camera is attached to the humans upper body or wedged between their chin and upper chest area.

Animals are then picked up and spun in a circle while the video focuses on their faces.

Posts featuring the animals have amassed thousands of views.

The trend has continued to grow on TikTok in recent weeks. What was once content made by cat and dog owners has grown to also include farm animals.

Forbes went on to share information from charity organization Cats Protection who says "cats in particular may be sensitive to being spun around."
