Kote of the "pre-internet" period

Categories: Animals | Positive |

Once upon a time, when no one knew what mam and mimimi were ... kote already existed! And they were no less sullen or touching than their modern counterparts-the stars of the Internet.

These cats were not so lucky – they lived in a time when there was no Facebook, Instagram and YouTube. Therefore, they could not be touched by thousands of fans around the world, but only friends and relatives of their owners. But we decided to correct the situation and give them a well-deserved fame and a "second life". This time – on the Internet.
