Yes, it’s true. Japan decided to take the time, and vote for a cat with the ugliest sleeping face. When awake this kitty is absolutely adorable! Piercing blue eyes that belong on some gourmet kitty food ad, for sure! But, when he/she sleeps, all that beauty goes in the can!
This is Setsu-chan, owned by Japanese illustrator Mino.
The little guy sure is cute when he’s awake. But when he dozes off, he sure is fugly.
During his waking hours, he is a stunner with pure white fur and hypnotizing baby blues.
But when he falls asleep, things go from cute to adorably awkward. The feline’s sleeping face looks like a zombie’s face.
The silly sleeper first caught Internet’s attention when his owner started posting pictures of the cat on Twitter.
Setsu-chan was even featured on Japanese television and appeared in a book with the title is The Most Awful Sleeping Face in Japan: The Unparallelled Beautiful Cat Setsu-chan.
You can find some more Setsu-chan pics and info about the book from Mino’s Twitter page.
To make matters worse, cats love to sleep. Which means, whoever owns this cat gets to see this face ALL the time! Share with friends!
