This adorably spooky hairless cat is named Jasper (jazzy.purrs on Instagram) and the internet seems to be absolutely in love with him. Currently, this internet-famous cat has over 57,000 fans on Instagram and we're not surprised about it at all.
As you've probably already noticed, Jasper doesn't have both of his eyes. And there's a pretty heartbreaking story behind it. Apparently, the kittie was adopted at 2 years old and at the time he was seemingly healthy. Then, in November 2013, Jasper got a corneal ulcer in his right eye, and the only option to save him was to get it removed. After a few years, he ended up with a corneal ulcer in his remaining eye, which also got removed. All in all, the cat has definitely been through a lot, but he turned out to be a super happy kitty who's currently 12 years old.
Bored Panda invites you to take a look at 70 photos capturing the adorable Instagram-famous kitty Jasper.

i feel sad for him...he can't even see and looks dead..i feel sad for him.. edit: i know this is meant to be funny (or something) but it kinda makes me sad T~T
Cats do fine blind, so there's no need to "feel sad". They can adapt easily to life without sight, and having a blind cat isn't much different than having a sighted cat.

While it's reassuring they did what needed to be done (I would have too!) I can't imagine waking up and not being able to see anymore, and not really have comprehension of why.. It makes me sad too. But kitties! Kitties being loved and cared for! I couldn't want more.
I know we're all supposed to say, "awww", but he looks a little creepy with those eyes. Would still nuzzle, but that would take me a few days to get used to, however I think hairless kitties look like old man balls as is.
I think both the parent and Jasper are so special the world needs more people like these!
when people wake up in the middle of the night and say ahh i cant see.*this cat* what u say boi

This baby is lucky to have a good momma...I wish her the very best.
What a sweetheart! <3 No cat could ever scare me, not even an eyeless cat, I fall in love with all cats instantly. :-)
A strong warrior cat this one. I do wonder how he lost his eyes, but I'm so glad that it doesn't seem to bother his every day life that much. He's such a loving creature
At first, I was surprised and in shock. After all, eyeless cats are not regularly seen. I feel bad for Jasper. As a person with bad vision, imagine none at all! Maybe if technology advances faster, Jasper could see again. :)
He is a strong guy to go through that pain. ( and does he remind anybody of the mewtwo pokemon?)
He reminds me of those guard cats in tail chasers song. But he looks like a sweet cat.
I don't think Jasper thinks being eyeless and blind is "cute and adorable". Anyone who thinks so is an affectatious, thoughtless a*****e.
Don't be so cruel! The poor kitty went through a lot! How dare you say that?!
