At first glance, you might think you’re staring at a cartoon-like black orb with a single eyeball. But a closer look reveals the truth: she’s an adorable Pomeranian with a fluffy black coat and a white snout, creating the uncanny illusion of an eyeball in the center of a sphere.
Vinci DeLaunc shared photos of his brother’s one-of-a-kind Pomeranian on Reddit, and her mind-bending appearance quickly captivated the internet. Surprisingly, the images weren’t altered—her fluffy fur and striking coloring naturally create this quirky effect from certain angles.
“She really looks like that 24/7 from my height,” DeLaunc commented. To minimize the illusion, his brother sometimes adds a scarf to her outfit.
The dog’s quiet demeanor only adds to the mystique. “It’s really jarring in real life because her claws constantly tap on the floor, she’s not verbal, doesn’t bark, and just roams around the house,” DeLaunc explained.
Social media users quickly dubbed her a “furry Mike Wazowski” and “cyclops cotton ball.” Some even turned her into cartoon fan art, inspired by her whimsical appearance.
Despite her puzzling first impression, the Pomeranian remains just a playful little dog who occasionally makes passersby do a double take—and she seems completely unaware of the viral fame her unique look has garnered.
