VIDEO: Meet Matilda The ‘Alien Cat’

Meet Matilda, the world's foremost alien cat. This two-year-old female tabby suffers from an ocular issue that means she resembles an otherworldly feline being.

According to comments from Matilda's owner on the popular Reddit forum, her distinctive look started about a year ago when "the lenses in her eyes spontaneously detached, and since then her eyes have grown and she has lost most of her sight."

After visiting a vets and eye specialists, her condition remains undiagnosed and something of a mystery.
An eye enucleation might be the next step -- although tests have shown that Matilda's blood and ocular pressure are at normal levels. Her owner also says that she doesn't seem to be in pain.
