It seems that cats can sport mustaches too! Meet Mostaccioli, a feline who was born with a unique marking just above her mouth that resembles a mustache. At 1 year and 4 months old, this adorable cat is capturing the hearts of many on the internet. Natalie, her owner, regularly posts cute photos of Mostaccioli on a special Instagram account dedicated to her furry friend. Follow along for more whiskery adventures!
According to Natalie’s interview with Bored Panda, she came across Mostaccioli along with her three siblings when they were just a day old. Among them, Mostaccioli stood out due to her distinctive “mustache”. Natalie explained that the kittens’ mother was a petite feral cat who was malnourished. On discovering the distressed kittens, Natalie acted promptly to rescue them. After drying and cleaning them, she managed to coax their feral mother into a large kennel to care for them safely.
Initially, Natalie didn’t notice Mostaccioli’s unique facial marking as she didn’t want to disturb the kittens too much in their fragile state. But when she started supplementing Mostaccioli’s feeding to aid her survival, she noticed the mustache and decided then that she would become a permanent part of her family. Mostaccioli’s siblings were also adopted into loving homes, with one even joining a household with an elderly poodle companion. This adorable cat has sported her mustache since birth, making her truly one-of-a-kind.

When asked about how she manages to capture so many wonderful pictures of her cat, Natalie shared her secret: “To grab my mustache girl’s attention for photos, I usually call her name or make a funny noise to get her to look. My phone’s camera roll is overflowing with hundreds of shots just so I can hopefully get a few good ones.”
