So apparently horizontal stripes by the eyes come off as "angry". Do you think that's the case for Lilly, too? (sh.itjust.works)

My read is calm and curious.

IDK about curious, but she is far from calm. She is the busiest bee here by a long shot.

Nay, Lilly is cute 😺

It looks like she's a cyberpunk cat with panel lines on her face. She must have gotten an upgraded forehead for superior headbumping power

Also to actually answer, I don't think she looks angry. She's got big round eyes that just look too friendly and curious
