Yo dawg… I mean cat.

RememberTheApollo_ ,

Polydactylism applies to ears as well as toes for kitties.

TIL.

Scrof ,

Cats are special, because any mutation actually makes them even cuter. Down syndrome cat? Extremely cute. 4 ears? Dangerously cute. Additional thumbs? Hazardously cute. They just can’t go wrong.

Also he’s constantly bleeping. Does it go along with the mutation?

I was able to find some context. I hope this helps other curious visitors.

The cat is named Midas and he hears just fine with the extra set of ears.

I’d be so tempted to name that cat “What?” or “Huh?” Lol

Macallan ,

I’d probably go with “Radar” or “Sonar” or something like that.

Mongostein ,

Does this cat have extra ears??

I’m not sure what those are, but I think they are adorable.

It’s called the double ear mutation! It’s a known recessive gene that appears in some cats.

henfredemars ,

Yes. I share the link in another comment.

Mongostein ,

Oh thanks! When I was here before I was the only comment… or maybe they just didn’t load or something. 🤷🏻‍♂️

So he can hear in 4D

kureta ,

No. She is bleping out of her ears.

TheButtonJustSpins ,

What’s the ear situation here?

Wish I knew!

henfredemars ,

According to the link I shared:

The deformation has been linked to a recessive gene mutation from her parents.

I think you meant, ear ear, wots all this about then.
