Woman Gets Surprised When Her Rescue Cat Turned Out to Be A “Vampire”

ADVERTISEMENT

Meet Monkey, the black cat with vampire teeth who looks just like a character from a Halloween movie. He is a rescue cat who lives in NY State with his loving owner, and his teeth are for real. The kittie’s human Nicole Rienzie was in a car on her way home when her mother nearly hit a black kitten. When they got out of the car, they saw a cat that was malnourished, covered in bugs and dirt, and with an eye infection so big, he could barely see where he was going. “At first I tried to find him a home but I realized how much our meeting was divine alignment. I needed him just as much,” Rienze told LoveMeow. Soon after Renzie adopted the cute cat, his teeth started to grow, and she realized the cat was special…

Monkey’s canines kept growing and getting longer and longer until the feline started to look like a little vampire. Rienze started to worry, so she took Monkey to the vet who told her the cat was completely fine. The long fangs in cats are rare, but it does happen.

“When people look at pictures, a lot of the time they think they’re fake,” Rienzie says. “I’ve had people say they’re Photoshopped. But they’re not – they’re just his funny cat teeth. They’re always amazed, wondering why they’re like that.

You can also look at these cat photos of vampire cat Loki or these toothless cute little cat monsters!

Well, they’re not – the vampire cat is real and, according to her mom, he’s adorable and likes to lick a lot!

Cats are evolving. This one doesn't need humans to open the milk carton for it.

I also had a rescued cat (from a killing station in spain) who had teeth almost as long as your cat. DSC09185-5...cb36b2.jpg DSC09185-5818f91cb36b2.jpg

I'd've called him "Fang." Real imaginative I know. Love the look of him regardless - a cat is always a good addition to the household.

She probably named the cat when she got him, and back then he didn't have fangs and she couldn't have known.

It almost looks like it would hurt but he seems comfy and relaxed. Weird how some cars teeth grow.

So appropriate! A black cat with vampire fangs. I feel mugs and t-shirts are not far behind. I'd by some.

It's really not that rare to have fangs showing, I have 2 cats w/long fangs, both are Black (1 has them on his BOTTOM jaw) they're harmless as long as they don't impede their feeding.....although, Monkeys are very long, WHAT A CUTIE!!

@Lou Wow -- You are right. Unlike you I am afraid they might discover other uses for those fangs apart from opening milk carton. Opening tender flesh comes to mind.

OMG, this is amazing! I'm glad to see she takes him out on a leash: black cats with regular teeth are even in danger from nuts who think black cats are the devil's familiars - and kill them! With those teeth, though, that association could be even stronger for these nut cases. He might not last very long on the street at all! (Well, either that or a random goth walking down the street might cat-nap him...)
