PET lover PARIS HILTON has added a DWARF cat to her menagerie of small animals.
The socialite - who also owns two chihuahuas, a kinkajou, a ferret and a goat - was seen clutching the miniature grey feline while getting out of her car.
Although the 26-year-old is delighted with her new kittie, she has been slammed for purchasing the unusual cat because the specialist breed has numerous health problems.
The cats are said not to be able to function like normal sized felines, and cannot jump properly because their bow legs are too short.
They can also break the bones in their limbs when landing because their legs aren't long enough to absorb the shock.
"They're cute, but not healthy or able to function like a regular cat," said Hollywood gossip writer Janet Charlton.
