Ok, the videos of the cat lovingly head butting the large rodents are adorable.
So we have a Murder of Crows, a Crash of Rhinos, a Conspiracy of Lemurs.
What's a group of capybaras called?
A 'herd' according to Google search
The cat has clearly hypnotized them with its' secret weapon, toxoplasma gondii.

Also, this has been going on since covid so if you google "Oyen" (cat's name), with "Zoo Negara" there is a wealth of material.
#Oyen on tiktok has lots of super cute footage.
