With teeth big that are surely enough to rival Count Dracula’s and just one eye, Fang is quite possibly the world’s most unfortunate looking cat.
However, despite his appearance, the two-year-old Persian has proven to be a big hit after he was put up for adoption.
Daya Hall-Stratton, who is 23, and her boyfriend Ethan, who is 22, adopted Fang two months ago from a local vets after a previous owner wanted to put him down.
Daya, who was then working at the practice in New Hampshire, said that everyone wanted him, but she is the one who got to take him home as he hates other pets and she didn’t have any.
Fang then came to the practice with Feline Lower Urinary Tract disease FLUTD and needed surgery.
Sadly, his eye became infected around the same time due to feline herpes virus and had to be removed. His obvious fang-like teeth are due to an underbite.
Despite his health problems, Daya was quite quick to fall in love with him and took him home, where he could recover and receive the care he needed.
Daya stated: ‘Fang is a very social and sweet cat. He likes to be near us and a bit higher than us, like the back of the couch.
‘He has times he is really hyper and chases his toys, or he begs for food. His meow is very sweet though, so somehow not that annoying.
‘He’ll sleep on our pillows or at our feet at night.
‘Not that many people have met fang since we have had him, but many people on Reddit think he’s cute. Some other people have been a bit surprised by his appearance but expressed how adorable he is. ‘
Fang will more than likely have FLUTD flare-ups in future, but Daya and Ethan have put him on a prescription diet for prevention.
