This clip is best known online as a low quality cat scream shared in meme edits, Discord communities and short reaction videos. Rather than being tied to a widely confirmed film or TV source, it spread because the distorted scream is instantly funny and easy to drop into abrupt cutaway jokes. Its popularity comes from how well it fits panic, confusion and exaggerated shock. The short length also makes it useful for remixes, voice chat memes and quick punchline editing across social platforms.
