Outraged viewer tatakuksa posted: "You just can't torture those who are weaker then you, it is not a toy, it is a living being. She did not put a tattoo on her chest."
Ivanickaya hit back, saying the spoiled cat, which has it's own Instagram page and eats fresh oysters, leads a better life than the people complaining.

She said: "This cat's life is better then yours. Maybe it is hell for you, but he feels just fine.
"He has not been castrated and he never will be, this would be real cruelty.
"I checked with the vet before getting him a tattoo and they were fine with it and a vet was present while they were doing the tattoo, so everything was under control."
She added: "The cat is treated with love and care.
"He is very smart and enjoys his happy life. The tattoo was made on the upper layer of skin.
