Talking to Newsweek, the anonymous Ohio owner behind the account discussed her adorable, famous cat. "She was found as a kitten abandoned in a Metropark while my family was horseback riding. So we picked her up and carried her to where we board our horses. She stayed there for about 12 years before we took her home with us for retirement. She now enjoys the easy life of sleeping on soft things all day, warm blankets, and eating soft food every morning," she said. 

As for the facial expression, huebnera214 explained it to be the result of various medical issues over the years. "Her eyes have always been a little wonky, but that doesn't bother her," she said. "About two years ago the vet noticed she had some reabsorption going on with some of her teeth. This can cause pain and infections so we decided to have her top canines and a molar removed that were affected by the condition. Her lip has gotten stuck every so often since then." Upon hearing the feline is not in any pain, fans felt comfortable making fun of the cat's expression. "I thought a few other people would get a giggle out of her face," huebnera214 admitted. "I didn't think this many people would enjoy it!" Well, who doesn't love an entertaining cat photo?!
