four earred kitten?

From what I understand from one of the MANY news stories I've seen/read (it
actually got an honorable mention on Fox News Channel), it's just an
additional set of ear flaps - none of the internal workings for the second
set. Poor kitty has to settle for just regular stereo hearing, none of that
high-tech quadra-phonic stuff

This is so cute!

Oh, that *is* cute. I wonder too if the "extras" are just external flaps.
It's
a sweet looking kitten anyway.

LOL! I know the kitty already has a home, but he's got an ace in the hole if he
ever turns up homeless. I've found the public seems to have a real affility for
oddities...they get adopted *first*. Cats with two different-colored eyes,
polydactyl cats and such get adopted at our shelter very quickly.

I sometimes wonder, though, if those "oddities" also don't get given up very
quickly. Perhaps not back to the same shelter, but elsewhere, or left to
their own defences, eventually.

I'm not talking about impulse-adoptors, the kind who would see a cat at an
adopt-a-thon and suddenly decide they want it. I'm talking about people who
have already decided to adopt, come to the shelter to choose one. I don't think
the "unusual" kittys have any greater chance than any other cat to end up
abandoned. There's always that possibility with *any* cat, but.you screen the
adoptor, you check his references, let him do the talking and use your gut
instinct, and by that point, the aesthetics of the cat doesn't really matter.
Highly adoptable cats seem to run in cycles, oddly enough. Right now dilute
calicos aren't moving. Sometimes it's tabbies. Sometimes it's black cats.
