Kuli, who is the one-eyed cat, has been surfing with his owners Alexandra Gomez and Krista Littleton for a bit more than a year in Honolulu, Hawaii. He was only 6 months old when he began riding waves.
Kuli, whose name literally means “to look blind,” is just fine with water, probably because his owners used to bath him when he was recovering from eye surgery. This industrious kitty was rescued from the streets. At the time he was tiny and malnourished, weighing only one pound.
“His first time in the water, we just let him float on the board by himself near the shoreline and I would paddle around with him,” Ms Gomez stated to dailymail. “Before we knew it we were looking for waves to surf.” The kitty is safe and sound, he wears a life jacket when needed!

The kitty was actually rescued from the streets when he was just tiny and malnourished, his left eye had to be removed due to infection
He was named Kuli which literally means “to look blind”
“Before he could swim confidently on his own, Kuli always wore a life jacket”
“He still wears it from time to time depending on the conditions – but we are careful not to take him out if it is too windy or the water is too rough”
