A CAT owner had the internet in hysterics when his pet's tail was left looking very X-rated after surgery.

The 22-year-old took his pet, Aslan, to the vet for a tail amputation and stitches but the animal also got a bizarre shave.
In the video, Aslan can be seen wandering around a cluttered room, wearing a buster collar and swinging his new stumpy tail around.
The ginger cat's tail has been visibly chopped in half, and the remaining section has been shaved all the way down to his bottom.
Don's footage garnered lots of attention online - and people have said the tail resembles an elephants backside, a bonobo monkey and even male genitalia.
The viral video posted in 2019 racked up a whopping 9.57 million views and over 7,400 comments.
Viewers were losing their minds at the pink fleshy stump, and flocked to share their surprise, laughter and shock horror at Aslan's phallic feature.
One social media user wrote: "This cat has an elephant bro".
Another said: "You just ruined my fav activity which is stroking my cats tail.. it will never be the same".

A third joked: "Idk what I was expecting a hairless tail to look like but it sure as hell wasn’t that".
Some even began creating memes of the poor cat, by drawing eyes and other animations on the tail.
Other Aslan fans replied with pictures of their pets post surgery to make the ginger cat fell less alone.
Don eventually explained that his kitty had to have the surgery after it got into a fight.
He said when he saw the tail for the first time after surgery he was confused as to why they had clean shaved it and that his nephew had called it a "sausage".
Another cat owner was also left in hysterics after she tried to give her pet a trim herself.
Her Persian cat went from a fluffy ball of fur to being completely unrecognisable.
A dog-mum was then left baffled after she took her pooch to the groomer and it came back looking like a totally different animal.

She said her pup looked like it should be roaming the Savannah following the dodgy trim.
And a couple were left in stitches when their cat returned from having his haircut - and he was completely bald apart from his face.
