Without a doubt, the most interesting/bizarre (as in genetics science experiment) cat I've ever seen.

This cat should be named Bele. Pronounced "Beel." It's a Star Trek reference.

I hope furriend Venus is doing well, she has kidney problems now and needs special kidney diet food, her mom´s a friend of mine on my old Facebook account, but I´m not using that old account much anymore, so I haven´t seen an update on Venus´ health lately. But I know she´s still fighting and there´re still new posts on her Facebook page & on her Twitter account, probably on Instagram too, but there I´m not often (I can´t post there myself without cellphone).
