72 piercings, horns, and implants: inside the world of the “human cat” shocking TikTok
When you hear the name Chiara Dell’Abate, you may not immediately picture a viral sensation. But among the bustling, ancient streets of Rome, this 22-year-old content creator has nearly 300,000 TikTok followers and an utterly unique claim to fame: transforming herself into what she proudly calls a “human cat.” And before you ask, no, this is not about a last-minute Halloween costume mishap—although, ironically, that is precisely where her journey began.

Becoming a Human Cat: The Story Behind the Obsession
Chiara’s fascination with felines was sparked the day someone asked her if she was dressed as a cat for Halloween. The twist? She wasn’t in costume. From that quirky misunderstanding sprang a passion so powerful she set out—not with whiskers and ears, but with an array of body modifications—to look more catlike. At just 11 years old, Chiara got her first piercing, and this was only the beginning.
- She now sports over 72 piercings, viewing them as her personal art of self-expression.
- Her procedures are not limited to piercings: she has also undergone eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) to correct drooping eyelids and eliminate bags under her eyes, aiming to inch ever closer to that feline mystique.
If that already sounds like a lot, wait—there’s more. Chiara has taken body modification to the next level with subdermal implants under her hands and four horns set in her forehead (perhaps taking the phrase “the cat’s meow” to new territory).
- She’s even had her nipples removed.
- She’s gone one step further—literally—by tattooing her eyeballs.
Courage, Criticism, and a Wave of Reactions
Through it all, Chiara remains resolute. “It’s crazy to see how much the human body can change and what’s possible with body modifications,” she told the Daily Mail. And she has no plans to slow down. With canthoplasty on the horizon (surgery that creates almond-shaped eyes) and thoughts of reshaping her nasal septum for a more catlike appearance, you can bet she’s just getting started.
Her one-of-a-kind appearance never fails to turn heads—whether on the street or scrolling through TikTok. But with the attention comes intense scrutiny and criticism, especially online. A few days ago, Chiara faced a flood of hateful comments under a TikTok video showcasing her split tongue slipping through her piercings. The feedback was, to say the least, not warm and fuzzy:
- “What is going through someone’s head to think this is a good idea?”
- “I have so many questions… None of which really interest me.”
- “There’s a huge difference between body modification and mutilation. She’s turned into a monster.”
But while many struggle to wrap their heads around her choices, Chiara shrugs off the hate. Unfazed by the barrage of negative comments, she says she receives plenty of supportive messages too. Most importantly, her dramatic modifications give her a sense of well-being. In her eyes (tattooed or otherwise), that’s what truly matters.
A World That’s Anything but Ordinary
Chiara’s story is not just about transformation; it’s about the freedom to sculpt your own identity, whatever the world might say. Whether you see her as an icon or an enigma, one thing’s certain: she’s rewriting the rulebook on beauty—and not a single whisker is out of place. If you catch yourself staring, maybe ask yourself—what catlike quality do you wish you could borrow for a day?
