A cat with huge eyes has gone viral on Instagram due to her uncanny resemblance to a famous Hollywood actor.
Meet Winky – a short-haired dwarf tabby with feline dwarfism, caused by a rare genetic defect which leads to the development of disproportionate and undersized features.
The beautiful kitten was rescued by her owner, Tim Spencer, 35, and his wife, Heather, 32, from a shelter in Boise, Idaho.
The couple were volunteering as fosters at the time and fell in love with the now four-year-old feline.

Due to Winky’s special appearance – which leaves her with huge eyes – the internet frequently compares her to a wide range of celebs – including La La Land star, Emma Stone.

“But Emma Stone is the one that most people agree on and I definitely agree!
