Meme built on an AI-animated video of three dancing kittens set to "LA CALABAZA – TINIEBLA Edit", a track by the independent producer Pumpky whose hook repeats the phrase that names the trend. The clip is reposted and remixed on TikTok over many backgrounds.

REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE

""Me salió 'La Calabaza' otra vez en el feed y ya llevo diez minutos mirando a los gatitos bailar," he said."

LORE & ORIGIN

KCH Comunicación (12 Sep 2026, citing Infobae) says the trend arose in September 2026: the AI-cat account Meowtakeover used Pumpky's track (Pumpky, @pumpky7, has posted FL Studio songs on TikTok since 2024) for a video of three cats in a hypnotic choreography, which thousands of users then copied. The same article says the Mexican singer Kenia Os joined in by pairing the trend with her song "Malas Mañas".
