No. Everyone is wrong.

Why, and what is it then?

Am I the only one that sees balls in that pic lol!

It does look some like a hamster, but it most closely resembles a cat

@SamuraiWar42, your post seems inappropriate...

Reminds of when I said T_T was an angry face and others said it was a crying face.
For it to be angry or annoyed, the top lines are the eyebrows, and the middle lines are the eyes.
However, the general consensus is that the top lines are the eyes held shut, and the middle lines are tears.

Here is a better cat face btw (...)(^w^)(...)

It's always been a cat face! I know this because I remember Bebo. And OMGPOP. (Why am I old)

I think it's supposed to be a cat face, but for some reason I see a seal face instead.

Don't they use the :3 face in some anime as well? Just to be uber cutesy?

Yes..kind of. :3

It's not like one, in my opinion.
