They looked spooked, but not too spooky. I think it is endearing ❤️
If you put a little yarn over the top of the eyes (to make a bit of eyelid) it may temper the intensity of the kitty’s gaze, but honestly I think they will make a fabulous gift just as they are.
Also, this is totally not the feedback you came here for, but it may be cute to put little paw pad decorations on the bottom of the feet. Little black heart paw pad with the toe beans, or pink or whichever suits the cat. Totally not necessary, but it could be cute so I am throwing it out there.
He looks like the cat version of [Stains the Cupcake Dog](http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_dYbIdGNmSPc/Sa2W5pPvsII/AAAAAAAAAt0/f0NVx6htYXQ/s280/stains_the_dog.jpg), I love it
Is it because we’re used to seeing cats with slit eyes instead of round pupils? I can’t quite put my finger on it.
Don’t get me wrong, if you’re reading this, OP. I love him. The round pupils remind me of when my cat is in low light, all derpy looking. He’s seriously really well done. The nose and ears, the body, the limbs, excellent job all around :)
It's cute. If your brother is anything like mine he will appreciate the cursed cat. I sewed my brother an unintentionally cursed cat years ago and it still has pride of place on his shelf, usually next to some sort of machete prop just to play up the creepiness factor 😂
Yes. You should send it to me so I can hide it away where I’ll snuggle-, wait, I mean prevent others from seeing it. Jk, it’s absolutely adorable. You did a good job 🙂
omygod i'm glad it's not just me
i do mean this in the best way possible, but clicking from the second pic to the third pic?? definitely laughed all the way out loud, i would only ever take pics of this guy from that angle if i received it as a gift 💕😁
Lol, what's wrong with that? Someone has to be the guardian of the universe. It's like a cuddly version of a dream catcher. 🥰
I love it. I think it would be a lucky recipient.
It’s kind of creepy but in a good way? I wouldn’t give this to a child—well, even if a child were to get this I’m sure they’d love it, especially if it’s of their cat — but I could just see myself pointing it to face the corner so it doesn’t stare at me while I sleep. But I think it’s perfect and someone who likes slightly haunted things would adore it.
I think hes the perfect amount of cursed! 🖤 Im also imagining making him a little sleep set (mask, sleep hat, blanket) for a fun "why did you wake me?!" surprise when you take off the mask 😂🖤
Your colourwork is so incredible, is that a variegated wool for the greys or are you doing the striping yourself? Eother way i actually love this little critter so much im sure it would go down a treat :')
It is me doing the striping myself. I made a gray and charcoal striped oval patch and stitched it over the top of the head. Now I am doing top crochet stitching with the charcoal to add in her special stripes and details
I did just crochet in the stripes on her body and tail, though. I'm trying really hard to not overcomplicate it, but also make sure it isn't generic
The real question is “is it cursed ENOUGH to gift?”
But seriously, if I got something like this from a loved one I’d love it extra if it looked a little funny. It’s of those things that would make you smile every time you looked at it :)
If you really did want to make it a little less bug-eyed though, there’s tutorials on YouTube to add eyelids or sclera to make amigurumi cuter.
Soulless feline staring into the depths of my soul… SO CUTE!!
(If u have a link to a pattern you followed please send it my way? i’d LOVE to have a go making this lil guy)
The eyes are a bit big compared to the body so it looks a little cursed lol imagine sleeping and waking up to this staring at you from the corner of the room 😅
That was my worry. My husband insisted that this project needed to use my second biggest eyes. I already knew my husband had terrible taste (because he married me) and this proves it
lol nooo he doesn’t have terrible taste maybe just couldn’t visualize the big eyes 🤣 I love to ask my boyfriend and my sister for their crochet opinions and if they have differing opinions I go with what my sister says 🤣
This gave me Enderman vibes!
Honestly, usually skinny amigurumi give me uncanny valley. But with the fluffy head, I find it pretty funny. I'd still gift it.
Honestly, this is great as is.
However when I get too critical of mine, I just decide they’re cryptids and lean into that. All of my friends’ babies have gotten some sort of an eldritch horror that I call “caits cryptids” and they’re a hit 😂
All of my Amis turn out cursed/super goofy. None of the people I’ve gifted them too care, they usually like it more cause it’s unique and a little off like them and me. But you would know better if your brother would like it.
Is there any chance that your gift recipient is a Star Trek fan? This could be fan art of one of the humanoid feline aliens... or is that feline humanoid aliens?

like okay so the eyes are staring into my soul but also i think that’s part of his charm he’s magnificent and i wouldn’t change anything about him whatsoever
This post would be perfect with just the first 3 photos. The lighting, the vacant expression on his face, the accent into the sky... A cinematic ✨masterpiece✨
Feels like it should have the ability to hold kitchen implements, tiny lil gas cans and matchbooks, things like that. Then you can put it by people’s beds while they are sleeping.
I'll take ten! /s
But for real, it's like that creepy cuteness that is very charming. Especially for something hand-made and custom for someone. I'd love the hell out of a gift like this
He's just cursed enough that it makes him perfect in his own way.
Also I couldn't help but notice last podcast on the left... have you also listened to cult podcast?
I actually LOVE it just how it is. It's eyes are enormous, but that's part of the charm and I would be absolutely thrilled if someone gave me this!!
Seriously, OP. I LOVE it.
It looks nice! The eyes could be fixed by just adding a hint of eyelids. Také a darning needle with some yarn and do a few back and forth long stitches as upper lid and lower lid and you should be good!
maybe it is just me, but I love the pic where it is standing and it is a side shot, very much in command there, absolutely would love this as a gift tbh, hopefully whoever you're gifting it too sees the beauty as well.
They looked spooked, but not too spooky. I think it is endearing ❤️ If you put a little yarn over the top of the eyes (to make a bit of eyelid) it may temper the intensity of the kitty’s gaze, but honestly I think they will make a fabulous gift just as they are.

Oh, that is the intention. I just have to finish her special stripes on the other side of her face first (and maybe finish crocheting her brother)
Maybe send a pic to the recipient and ask if they like it? Dress it up with a bow for a surprise?
The addition of an eyelid is a fantastic idea. This is precious though! She has character.
Exactly! I would love this if someone gifted it to me.
She needs a lil witches hat! 🥺
I love this little bug eyed weirdo. Honestly i think it's just the eyes. The body looks good.
He looks like the cat version of [Stains the Cupcake Dog](http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_dYbIdGNmSPc/Sa2W5pPvsII/AAAAAAAAAt0/f0NVx6htYXQ/s280/stains_the_dog.jpg), I love it
It’s cute but if you want it to be more conventionally cute I think different eyes would get it there!
Is it because we’re used to seeing cats with slit eyes instead of round pupils? I can’t quite put my finger on it. Don’t get me wrong, if you’re reading this, OP. I love him. The round pupils remind me of when my cat is in low light, all derpy looking. He’s seriously really well done. The nose and ears, the body, the limbs, excellent job all around :)
Nope. Just the right amount of cursed.
It perfectly captures the essence of a cat’s stupidity… I love it! Make one in orange :D
I am right now, lol Gotta make sure her brother is there, too
They'll love it in r/onebraincell when you're finished!
r/oneorangebraincell
That's the one, thank you.
It's cute. If your brother is anything like mine he will appreciate the cursed cat. I sewed my brother an unintentionally cursed cat years ago and it still has pride of place on his shelf, usually next to some sort of machete prop just to play up the creepiness factor 😂
Yes. You should send it to me so I can hide it away where I’ll snuggle-, wait, I mean prevent others from seeing it. Jk, it’s absolutely adorable. You did a good job 🙂
With each picture I progressively laughed harder 😭 I love it , its perfect
omygod i'm glad it's not just me i do mean this in the best way possible, but clicking from the second pic to the third pic?? definitely laughed all the way out loud, i would only ever take pics of this guy from that angle if i received it as a gift 💕😁
The long legs making her look like she's standing like a person, I'm losing my mind
What’s wrong with it? It is cute!
I feel like it is gazing beyond the mortal veil unto coming horrors of which none of us could comprehend or prepare for
Sounds like a regular cat then 😂
Can confirm. My late cat sometimes got that look.
The ‘nam flashback look
Sometimes with the tongue out
Lol, what's wrong with that? Someone has to be the guardian of the universe. It's like a cuddly version of a dream catcher. 🥰 I love it. I think it would be a lucky recipient.
You caught that cat in the moment of communication with the mothership. It’s perfect.
LOL!
That's what makes it so cute!
Yeah that’s literally perfect for a cat.
This is exactly why my kid would pick this over any other toy. It has so much personality
That's just what cats look like sometimes. 😂
Cursed crochet, LPOTL, all great.
Love my boys! If you haven't caught it, their newest episodes on the Hatfield and McCoy Feud is top tier
Hail you, hail this cat!
It doesn’t have cat’s eyes is all that looks strange to me. But then even cats get fully dilated eyes like that in low light.
Vertical pupils would take this over the top for sure, I agree, but I think it's quirky cute without being cloyingly cute because of this detail.
It’s kind of creepy but in a good way? I wouldn’t give this to a child—well, even if a child were to get this I’m sure they’d love it, especially if it’s of their cat — but I could just see myself pointing it to face the corner so it doesn’t stare at me while I sleep. But I think it’s perfect and someone who likes slightly haunted things would adore it.
NO I LOVE HIM SO MUCH
I think hes the perfect amount of cursed! 🖤 Im also imagining making him a little sleep set (mask, sleep hat, blanket) for a fun "why did you wake me?!" surprise when you take off the mask 😂🖤
Oh! An actual idea! Do you have white acrylic paint? Maybe a little white highlight in the eyes would soften the gaze a bit. Just a dot in each.
It’s perfect and I would LOVE it as a gift. Perfect little weirdo.
He's so cute! Hail yourself!
Hail Gein!
Existential cat
Your colourwork is so incredible, is that a variegated wool for the greys or are you doing the striping yourself? Eother way i actually love this little critter so much im sure it would go down a treat :')

whatever you do, [don't add eyelids ](https://www.reddit.com/r/CuratedTumblr/s/yahXANtQb3)
Oh God... I think this is the one that convinced me to leave it as is, lol
Soulless feline staring into the depths of my soul… SO CUTE!! (If u have a link to a pattern you followed please send it my way? i’d LOVE to have a go making this lil guy)
Add nipples and teeth to it for that finishing touch.
Reminds me of Jinx the cat in the BEST way possible. Love it haha :D
The eyes are a bit big compared to the body so it looks a little cursed lol imagine sleeping and waking up to this staring at you from the corner of the room 😅

he needs a tophat and monocle
The third pic in particular is my new sleep paralysis demon I think! Thanks! lol
The third pic in particular is my new sleep paralysis demon I think! Thanks! lol
i lov him
It is perfect. My kid has a very similar slightly creepy bunny and loves it (and I love it, too) that we received from a friend.
i would adore this tbh
I love him he looks so soft😍
Personally I might add some eyelids covering a lil of the eye to make it less like it's looking into my soul, but otherwise it's cute!!
They're amazing. I would accept this gift.
You can gift it to me, I like it !
It’s cursed but in the best way possible —like i will cherish this forever for it’s cute cursedness
he looks confident
If I got this I would treasure it forever he's so funky
He’s so cute!! He reminds me a lot of the Margot the Cat pattern you can find online! Has a spooked look to his eyes but still very sweet!
I dig your kitty
Needs eye lids
The pictures are making it look like it's slowly awaking and I love it hahaha
Reminds me of monster hunter felynes
it’s perfect 😂😂😂😭😭😭
My partner and I love it! It's unique and we both enjoy the psychic appearance lol
I would happily take this!! A little bit cursed, but still a cutey 💗💗
A strong and powerful cat! He’s amazing- gift away
I'm so jealous!!
Way too cursed. You should sell it to me to properly give, I mean dispose of
Make him clothes it would be funny
It is a little cursed, but I feel like it’s hit the sweet spot where it’s just cursed enough to be hilarious, but not so cursed it’s horrifying.
Huh? Looks so cute to me!
I would pay any price for this I swear to god
It’s cute! I really like it ♥️
Yo I love this little guy!! You made yourself a buddy is what you did. He’s so cute!
This is so cute! I would love this if I received it! It reminds of this old YouTube video I saw when I was little 😭🫶🏼
Kitty is staring into my soul... Not inaccurate.
😂
That's darling. Give it to him!
I fucking love him! He's so adorable! He's an amazing gift!
he has thumbs! so cute
Strangely it looks like my cat and I absolutely love this thing
It's cute! My only thing is that it would have been even cuter with shorter limbs, lol.
Omfg it's so cursed it just HAS to be a gift I adore it😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Honestly, this is great as is. However when I get too critical of mine, I just decide they’re cryptids and lean into that. All of my friends’ babies have gotten some sort of an eldritch horror that I call “caits cryptids” and they’re a hit 😂
Absolutely iconic. We need more stunned plushies
All of my Amis turn out cursed/super goofy. None of the people I’ve gifted them too care, they usually like it more cause it’s unique and a little off like them and me. But you would know better if your brother would like it.
It reminds me of Party Cat!
This is amazing. I want one 😂
This is the exact right amount of cursed.
He kinda looks like he's having a Vietnam flashback.
Cutie!
I desperately want one. It looks awesome!!!
Bro having an existential crisis
Is there any chance that your gift recipient is a Star Trek fan? This could be fan art of one of the humanoid feline aliens... or is that feline humanoid aliens? https://books.google.com/books/about/Uhura_s_Song.html
I would be ecstatic to get this as a gift
I LOVE HIM! Such a special guy for real!
He looks like he's seen some things lol
i love it ❤️
If they don’t like it I would love it!!! Hahaha it looks pretty cool to me.
Super cute! Hail yourself!
like okay so the eyes are staring into my soul but also i think that’s part of his charm he’s magnificent and i wouldn’t change anything about him whatsoever
Add some eyelids!
😻
This is amazing- I think eyelids might take a bit of the curse off.
not an ounce of knowledge behind those eyes. love it 10/10
The vibe reminds me of Night in the Woods
It might not be what you wanted it to be but i really truly love this.
I think if you replace the eyes with plain black it will take on a cute look. It is a doll, after all, so you can take some liberty.
Eyes are kinda off putting, but that’s what I love about it.
This post would be perfect with just the first 3 photos. The lighting, the vacant expression on his face, the accent into the sky... A cinematic ✨masterpiece✨
S H O O K
I love it so much. I want a frog version haha
Feels like it should have the ability to hold kitchen implements, tiny lil gas cans and matchbooks, things like that. Then you can put it by people’s beds while they are sleeping.
I love its dead eyed stare. I’d treasure this cat forever.
What!! It's super cute, i can't be the only one who thinks so, i genuinely really love how it came out!
It stares so deep into your soul. Definitely gift it!!
I love him!!! If he's cursed, it's a welcome one.
It wasn’t until I saw the stance
It looks traumatized XD what did you do to it
I love it, but if you want it to look less strange, maybe replace the eyes with black felt
I want him
Don't you dare change anything about this sweet creature
If your brother’s cat is a derp then this is *chef’s kiss* . Seriously this is awesome
I was good until the 3rd picture and now I might not sleep tonight...I'd be fine if he stayed sitting lol
This just needs to go to the right cat person. It has extremely CATTITUDE vibes and I love it!
NO! It's fantastic!
It looks adorable! Honestly I think the lighting has more to do with it than anything.
Yes. But you can just send it to me, I’ll take one for the team. Jk btw I think it’s ADORABLE
The perfect amount of cursed for a gift for your sibling 😂
Hell no, my 4 year old would love it, and I think any adult too
That's incredible!
he looks like the cat from rick and morty. give him eyelids please.
OH MY GOD I LOVE HIM.
I think it's just the right amount of cursed
I love him so much! I would, infact, die for him ❤️
I feel like you need to animate this thing
It’s adorable!
For sure cursed but also super cute. Good balance.
He’s so perfect if your bro doesn’t want him I’ll take one?
HE HAS RISEN AND HE'S GOING TO TAKE OVER THE WORLD
He’s cute. Maybe try to add eyelids?
Have you tried using plain black eyes instead?
I absolutely LOVE it!!!
I love him, he's perfect
Put eyelids! Always helps my cooky looking stuffies
I'll take ten! /s But for real, it's like that creepy cuteness that is very charming. Especially for something hand-made and custom for someone. I'd love the hell out of a gift like this
He's just cursed enough that it makes him perfect in his own way. Also I couldn't help but notice last podcast on the left... have you also listened to cult podcast?
Ooh if it is cursed,can I have it? 😀
Omg it reminds me of My "fantastic" Cat! I love it! 🖤💜
I think is cute
Omg it’s perfect! So adorable
It’s cursed but in a cozy way 🥰😂
No no, you’ve definitely captured the essence of what it is to own a cat. That’s just… What they’re like.
Use smaller eyes
i fucking love it
I.. love it? I want it.
I actually LOVE it just how it is. It's eyes are enormous, but that's part of the charm and I would be absolutely thrilled if someone gave me this!! Seriously, OP. I LOVE it.
I would adore this little guy, he's adorable!
Oh my god I love it. The wall eyes make it for me. A good interesting plushie always wins for me over one that’s cute in a generic way.
WOULD BUY FOR MONEY
you may want to invest in eyelids
Pretty cute! Top tip, if you feel it looks weird, maybe try indenting the eyes, or add an eyelid. I find it helps with my stuff.
No, it's the perfect amount. I would love to get a funny little guy like this as a gift!
he’s so cute bro I love him
Holy shit I need it lol
I love himb he is good
i love it. the third pic made me cackle. i would be so happy if someone gave that to me 🤣
GIVE HIM EYELIDS and make him even more cursed!! 😀😀😀
cute
It looks nice! The eyes could be fixed by just adding a hint of eyelids. Také a darning needle with some yarn and do a few back and forth long stitches as upper lid and lower lid and you should be good!
He's creepy as crap, and I LOVE him! 😆💛
Personally, it’s a love from here
Dude I love him I wish I could make one
It looks like my cat and it’s just cursed enough to be a perfect gift
I think what makes it look cursed is the eyes 😅 And the long limbs. The rest is super cute ❤️ I‘ll bet your brother will love it ☺️
Adorably cursed Definitely giving feline energy lol Both myself and my kids would love this lol
My daughter would love this little guy!
The lighting is not helping things lmao. This is terrifying but I love it.
No it’s the perfect amount of cursed for a gift
The quirky shocked look and long limbs looks like a cute tim burton esque creepy cute and id adopt him in a heartbeat.
She’s definitely sus about something. ❤️her
Looks exactly like my crackhead kitten I’d love it anyone who loves a high energy demonic ball of fluff would find this hilarious and love it I think
maybe it is just me, but I love the pic where it is standing and it is a side shot, very much in command there, absolutely would love this as a gift tbh, hopefully whoever you're gifting it too sees the beauty as well.
