2. Fukumaru
A very touchy life-story of grandmother Misao and her odd-eyed cat Fukumaru has been filmed for more than 10 years by Miyoko Ihara, a photographer and Masao’s granddaughter. The cat Fukumaru, whose name is translated from Japanese as “a circle of good fortune”, followed the granny everywhere she went – to the field, orange garden or a bath. Miyoko Ihara made a special web-site to publish the photo stories of her granny and Fukumaru cat. She also created a hard cover portrait album, which was called “Misao the Big Mama and Fukumaru the Cat“. See what a happy couple they are!

5. Honey Bee
One more Internet star is blind. However, this blind cat called Honey Bee has a pretty exciting life, as her two humans adore hiking, so they take their kitten for a walk to the mountain side. Honey Bee loves taking rides on the shoulders, listening to the sounds of water and smelling everything. Once adopted from an animal shelter, she has found a completely different life in Seattle.

7. Venus – a Cat with Beautiful Eyes
Cat Venus is an ideal pet for all of those who cannot decide the color of the cat with whom they would like to spend the happy days of their lives. Just kidding, of course, the color of the pet generally isn't important, but for kitten Venus it is, because due to her unusual patterns, or we can say symmetrical colors on her head, she became a world famous cat. Venus is so unusual because of Chimera virus. If you are interested in more details about this virus, you can take a look at the article: One of the Most Beautiful Cases of Chimera in Animal World.
And, as for the popularity our dear Venus has experienced – it's too little to say that she's a world star! Her, in a specially interesting way, inborn symmetrical two-coloration really attracts attention and interests of people around the world. She's a real attraction on the social networks, like Facebook and Instagram (you can visit Venus on Facebook), as well as world newspapers and many photographers were interested in her figure. As the kitten on Fukumaru, Venus has one yellow and one blue eye, but the color of the fur on her head continues to play with symmetry in a really interesting and very nice way.

8. Thor – the Bengal cat
Cats are sweet and cuddling animals, perhaps that's why we love them so much! Besides, they are very skillful in finding their home, their light at the end of the tunnel, their salvation when it's necessary… Sometimes it happens they find us, they simply move in into our home, and later into our bed, but sometimes we look for them, for a special, unique kitten, which we consider the prettiest for us. In the case of Thor – a pet ready for adoption, love between him and his new owners was at first sight! His patterns are beautiful, and his green eyes are undoubtedly cuddly, but his brave and fearless spirit gave him the powerful name – THOR!
His family was very surprised when his lovely face appeared on the front page of the newspaper. He became very popular, both in the press and on social networks, he got requests for TV interviews and photos… Thor is truly a beautiful cat, he experienced world fame, though now he's only four years old. But his kind family doesn't want all of this to end with just promoting Thor’s pretty face, but they’d like to do some good deeds, something that will help other cats and animals around the world. That’s just really commendable! You can also visit Thor's Facebook page.

9. Happy and playful Lil Bub
Cute kitten Lil Bub hasn't accidently become famous even outside of the USA. Today she is one of the world’s famous cats. Her photos came to Facebook, websites, newspapers, even to a movie and a festival. But what is her uniqueness? When she came to the world and was just a little kitten, everybody would just say: Oh, God, poor little kitten! Lil Bib was born with some genetic mutations witch made her life more difficult. However, with the help of good people, her difficulties in growth and total immobility with right therapy led to a significant improvement. She was the only famous cat having this kind of disease.
Besides, Lil Bub has osteoporosis – a bone disease, which made her extremities permanently stay the size of a little kitten’s, which makes it difficult for her to move up to certain point. That’s why she got the name Perma-kitten! Another of her problems is that her lower jaw is shorter than the upper one, and besides she has no teeth, because they never grew up, so her tongue is always out. Instead of 20 fingers/toes and claws she has 22, so we can say this cat is rich – when it comes to claws. Her happy, wide and unusual green eyes are irresistible! She's so lovely, it isn't wonder her face is on cups, bags, calendars, books, and even a stuffed toy was made with her figure. Besides everything that happened she’s very nice, happy and playful cat. Truly a cute creature!

10. Monty
Monty is a lovely cat from Copenhagen, Denmark, that was born without nasal bridge i.e. nasal bones. Although “chromosomal abnormality” makes him want to sneeze, he feels very healthy and breathes normally. At the first glance, it looked like little Monty won't survive, but miracles happen, so today he's a candidate for the ambassador of “crooked” cats – cats that don’t look perfect, but they have a good soul :). His look is different, but it is also unique, which makes him fantastic! Monty’s other parents are the ones who are the proudest of him. For them, his appearance is incredibly cute and his personality rare as a diamond.
This happy cat quickly became very popular on all social networks. His face is so popular that we can consider him a celebrity. Would you like to see that cute creature on your t-shirt? Well, you can, of course! Monty’s fans around the world want to have his photo on their t-shirts or sweatshirts which says: “I'm not perfect but PAWsome”, or, short, but clear “Purrfect”. Very nice, isn't it? But his cute and unusual eyes can be seen on many decorative or everyday objects such as phone cases, for example.
