Salem Saberhagen was the wisecracking familiar in Sabrina the Teenage Witch, the 1990s sitcom that ran from 1996 to 2003, where the character was voiced by Nick Bakay. Once a warlock punished by being turned into a cat, Salem became the show's breakout comic voice thanks to his selfish, food-obsessed one-liners. Short lines like this one later circulated on soundboards and in pet edits, where his human-like impatience made him a perfect stand-in for demanding cats everywhere.
