A startled cat is dynamic and in motion. Gifs and videos should convey motion - leaping, jumping or otherwise showing that unique feline panic that makes us laugh, point and reach for our cameras. Videos and gifs, of course, do that best.

If you need to explain that a cat is startled, it is not startled.

Late Night Caller

This cat comes around a lot, along with another who looks similar. They are white with black spots, so I call them the Moo-sual Suspects. This one must have smelled or saw something through my front door (maybe my cat?) and did a run-startle!
