Is This Tyra Banks’ Cat?

Even highly-paid professional models sometimes have difficulties nailing the catwalk, but this American Shorthair definitely knows how to rock it. Although, at first her new ‘accessory’ was rather a necessity. “My cat had surgery recently, so she wore a fabric collar.” her human explains. “The fabric [collar] is more comfortable than plastic collars. She didn’t wear it deliberately to look cute.” Watch out, Gigi Hadid, you’ve got a new competitor!

Ever wondered about the origin of the word ‘catwalk’? The word dates from 1885, meaning a “long, narrow footway,” in reference to a narrow passage that one has to cross carefully, as a cat walks. However, in the modern world, it is much more simple: You just walk around like a cat, on the runway, wearing fancy clothes. Therefore, it’s safe to say cats are masters of cat walk, and this American Shorthair is no exception.

The owner of the cat explains the thing she’s wearing: “The fabric [collar] is more comfortable than plastic collars. She didn’t wear it deliberately to look cute.” But it still looks cute anyway, right? Click on the video to see this kitty’s fierce steps in her fancy fabric collar.
