A cat who has five fangs and a distorted nose has captured the hearts of people on TikTok due to his "unusual" face.

Svetlana Kryazheva, 29, a blogger from Russia, lives with her cat, Milka, three, who has recently shot to viral fame for his "unique" look.

In July 2019, the moggie entered into the family's home after they were looking for new pet and upon seeing his photos, they "couldn't resist".

Milka, who was born with a genetic mutation, has five fangs and a distorted nose – but Svetlana says this doesn't cause the tabby any discomfort.

Now, he's gained 1.5 million followers on TikTok, after the duo began sharing videos of their adventures together.

In one of Milka's most viral clips, which has 1.5 million views and 305,000 likes, they tried out a viral challenge to see how many times Svetlana can tap him before he reacts.

As she repeatedly taps Milka, he suddenly turns around looking quite shocked and it's not long before he grabs his owner's hand in a bid to make her stop.

Users were quick to comment on Milka's appearance.

One viewer said: "This is a very beautiful cat, do not judge by appearance."

"Cute cat, sorry the muzzle is a little displaced, it looks so cute," another person wrote.

Someone else wrote: "How funny and beautiful is he."

"Beautiful and unusual cat, all good for him," said someone else.

Another viewer added "Wow he looks like me (I'm not lying I have a nose and lips like that too.)"

"I had such a cat. They are not really beautiful and worthy but they have a big soul. Very good! Take care of him," another person wrote

Another person asked: "And everything is fine with the cat? Does he see normally? Beautiful to be honest, so cute and funny."

"Milka is a very affectionate cat, he has never hissed at us and every morning he comes to wake me up," Svetlana told NeedToKnow.Online.

"When I sit down to draw or work, he always comes and sits next to me.

"I searched for a very long time [for a new kitten] and then I came across a photo of Milka and I couldn't resist.

"In the ad, it was written that he gets along with dogs and this was the deciding factor since I had a Chihuahua, called Toffee.

"I was afraid he would be jealous and not accept Milk – but upon bringing him home, they were both happy and have been best friends ever since.

"I like to make videos with my pets and post them on TikTok for fun – soon, everyone was interested in watching Milka."
