Giving It Big Licks: Meet the Tongue-Out Instagram Cat

MEET Melissa - the friendly feline that loves to stick out her tongue for the camera. Scottish Fold cat Melissa, who is also known as the “Einstein” cat by her 20,000 Instagram followers, has been diagnosed with a bone degenerative disorder called Osteochondrodysplasia. Vets advised the quirky cat’s owner, Alina Esther, to have her put down due to costly and time consuming treatment - but instead she has become an internet sensation.

The adorable feline regularly appears in photos sporting accessories; from bow ties and tiaras to wigs and flower crowns.
