Michigan - Peanut the cat immediately stands out with his unique appearance and incredibly bizarre face. Now, the internet has grown obsessive, giving Oldboypeanut's weird face a career of its own.

Why Oldboypeanut has such a funny feline face is a mystery even to his owner Sydney Benham (20).

"When I adopted him, the shelter said that it was a birth deformity," Sydney told Metro. "The vet and the shelter said it doesn’t affect him negatively at all, he just looks funny!"

It was good news that had been delivered by the vet, fortunately Peanut the cat's weird and wacky face wasn't a health issue - just an aesthetic quirk.

Sydney got the cat, who is now eight years old, from a shelter in September. When she first saw him, she immediately knew she wanted to give this very special creature a loving home.

"The shelter had said that his previous owners had about eight other cats and when they died, Peanut was abandoned at the shelter."

The goofy fur ball doesn't only have an unusual look, but has to also cope with being blind in one eye and having a hearing impairment.

Peanut has a naughty streak and loves to cause chaos from time to time. He loves to knock over bowls and spread the contents of his litter box all over the house – much to the chagrin of his loving owner.

Nevertheless, Sydney has a lot of fun living with her furry friend: "He's so funny. When he jumps on tables, he won't come down on his own, he refuses."

Meanwhile, Peanut even has his own Instagram and a TikTok accounts, where Sydney shares funny photos and videos of their life together. Users quickly fell in love with the purr-culiar pet!

"This kitty looks like he has an invisible scrunchie holding his ears together, I love it," one user commented.

Others compared Peanut's ears to those of a rabbit. His popularity and fun nature make every day with him a gift for Sydney.

"Adopting Peanut was one of the best decisions of my life," she said. "He actually is the reason I kept living when I did not want to."
