Oscar the Cat is seen in this undated handout photo… (The New England Journal of Medicine, copyright 2007/Reuters)
If you compare the image of Oscar the cat you’re using with the AP version, you will see yours is either wrong or faked.
L.L.
We used an image supplied by the magazine in the story, and it was not immediately clear that the photo had been manipulated by the provider. When we learned about it, we removed it from our photo feeds, did an official kill of the photo, and issued a note explaining why: GBU Editor

Strange. It’s clearly the same cat, as it has exactly the same markings on the head, but someone’s messed around with the chin. Could the cat have had a bad case of chin acne when this picture was taken?
Poor kitty looks bizarre compared to the other pictures.
