Khloe Kardashian, known for her role in the famous Kardashian family, faced criticism on social media after posting a photo of her cat, Grey Kitty, on Valentine’s Day that appeared to be photoshopped. The Russian Blue cat was seen wearing a pink collar in the photo, which was uploaded to her Instagram story as a nod to Valentine’s Day celebrations. However, many social media users accused Kardashian of using FaceTune or Photoshop to edit the photo and make her cat look more toy-like.

Some followers pointed out the cat’s facial features as evidence of the supposed editing, noting that the cat’s green eyes looked unnaturally bright and its mouth appeared to be shaped in a way that resembled a smile. One user even posted on social media, saying, “Khloe Kardashian literally facetuned her cat.” Another person argued, “This is an actual illness at this point. Her sense of reality is facetuned.”

While some comments were negative, others defended Kardashian, noting that Russian Blue cats are known for their bright, toy-like features. One fan mentioned, “I wouldn’t be surprised, but this looks like a Russian Blue. Russian Blues are naturally beautiful and of course, very expensive. They are a no-filter-needed type of kitty.”

This isn’t the first time Kardashian has faced criticism on social media. In the past, she was called out for dressing up as a Bratz doll for Halloween and was accused of ‘blackface’ due to her overly dark fake tan. Additionally, fans have previously singled her out for a Photoshop fail in an Instagram post where her fingers looked unnaturally stretched and bent.

Her kitty was a gift for her daughter

The reality star and entrepreneur, who co-founded the Good American women’s fashion brand, originally bought Grey Kitty as a gift for her daughter, True. Khloe’s personal life has also been in the spotlight due to her relationship with Tristan Thompson, with whom she shares two children. They have been separated since December 2021, when Thompson was delivered a paternity lawsuit.

In conclusion, while Khloe Kardashian’s social media posts have often sparked controversy, her fans continue to defend her amidst the criticism.
