A breeder was shocked to find that her pet cat had given birth to an adorable kitten - with crossed eyes.
Rebecca Hardy, 27, was overjoyed when Mahri, her two-year-old Maine Coon, gave birth to a litter of seven in December.
But as the kittens each opened their eyes, she noticed that they all had convergent strabismus, where their pupils are turned inwards towards the nose.
As their extraocular muscles strengthened, six of the kittens adjusted their eyes to normal - but the seventh, named Red, did not.
Rebecca, from Hillsborough, Sheffield, said: "He’s a little bit more delayed when playing with the chaser toy, but he doesn’t know any different.
"He's got a ridiculous amount of confidence for a cat that’s cross-eyed!"
