Resilient black kitten with unique giant eyes goes viral for her distinct appearance and her inspirational story: 'Dorito is a healthy and unique-looking girl who was lucky enough to have her foster home turn forever home.'

In a world full of AI images, this one made us pause. But no, she's a real kitten.

Of course, we have seen all kinds of unique and beautiful cats in our time on the internet. We've come across cats that look like monkeys, and we've seen cats with unique spotted coats, and cats have gone viral for having extra toe beans. We've seen cats so unique that we have thought that we had seen it all. And when we first scrolled by these viral pictures of Dorito, we really did scroll by them. This is a cat that looks way too much like an AI cat. We didn't even pause to give the kitty a chance. But then we saw her go viral on another platform. And another one. So, we had to stop for a second.

Meet Dorito, one of the coolest, most unique cats that we have ever seen, and we are not even kidding. Dorito is a survivor. These eyes are not normal for cats. They are a result of her surviving a rare medical condition. Her vision is a little impaired, but she is surrounded with love and people who care about her, so despite her vision, she is living her best life.

Let's be honest, we all would have scrolled by these the first time that we saw them, dismissing them as AI, right? It's not just us. Because this kitty truly doesn't look real. She is like nothing that we have ever seen before. Still, if you find posts about this cat online, there will be people in the comments claiming that it is not a real cat. But she is. She is real, she is alive, she is happy, and we are just the privileged people who got to see a picture of her on a world where the timeline moves at the speed of light.

And of course, the only appropriate response by the people of the internet to see a cat like this is… to meme the cat. Oh, it is one of the reasons that we love the internet and will never be able to leave. Because no matter what is going on in the world, you can count on the people of the internet to still create cat memes, and if that does not make life worth living, then we don't know what does. More memes of this cat, please. We want her immortalized and living on the internet until the end of time.
