According to the Daily Mail, Pitzush lives with her human Roxana Dulama in Romania. Dulama rescued Pitzush about eight years ago, when the kitten's mouth was full of infected teeth.

Luckily, Dulama is a dentist, and she was able to extract Pitzush's rotten teeth and nurse the kitty to health.

"I started dressing Pitzush because I thought that so many women in fashion aren't good role models for young women — and they end up getting body conscious," Dulama told the Daily Mail. 

"I wanted to do something that would poke fun at that lifestyle — even glamour puss is a poke at women who are overdressed with no substance," she said.

And for cat-lovers out there, not to worry. Pitzush's eyelashes are entirely Photoshopped.

We think Pitzush has the potential to be a role model to cats everywhere.

UPDATE June 21, 2016, 9:30 a.m. EST: Roxana Dulama just reached out to Mashable and provided more information on this story.

Dulama gave us a behind-the-scenes look at her photoshoots.

"The photoshoots with Pitzush are not very easy to pull off. It's a process. I start with simple things like a necklace. Then some treats," she wrote to Mashable. "After that I very quickly put on the dress, and the shoot lasts for about 2-5 minutes. She is a real diva."

She also explained more of the meaning behind Pitzush's look. "Pitzush wants to show you that it's in a way stupid to limit your life to these kind of 'values.' Because if a cat can do it.... it's not that much. You can be better that a cat." Dulama told Mashable. 

"Even the name @pussinglam it's not a coincidence. It's word play...The concept of glamour puss is a woman who tries to compensate for the lack of substance with looks," Dulama explained. "So we should all check our mirrors to see if we are more than our reflection."
