This kitten was born on July 12th in Ohio, USA. The vets seem to
think he/she will survive (isn't that a rare occurrence for these
mutations?). I haven't been able to find any further updates about
the kitten since this article was updated on 7/14.

I will purr for this little bit. Erm, or get the furry overlords to.

Often, animals with gross genetic abnormalities will also have
internal abnormalities that kill them. Or, the mother will reject
them.

But it's not impossible for "Tiger" to be pretty healthy inside save
for an odd doubling of the face and throat.

I am glad that Tiger's owner is not rejecting him because of how he
looks, and isn't giving him an awful name like Monster or some such.

The article indicated Tiger is nursing normally so the mama-cat didn't
reject him/her. Must be interesting (to say the least) having two
mouths on one kitten wanting to nurse!

Latest that I heard, the kitten was "missing" since a 1am feeding
