YIKES! I wonder if this kitty is disturbed by the sounds of a Bunny Holocaust! Can she hear any better than a cat with two ears?
 
hahaha that's quite an amusing picture. The second set of ears look kinda under-developed to me. Doesnt look much like a kitten though. Even at 6 months.
 
That is really creepy! And cool. I'm sure the cat has a more acute sense of hearing.
So does the cat have 4 earlobes?!
 
Probably not, as the "extra" ears looked underdeveloped and flimsy to me.
 
I wonder if potential kitty suitors are turned off by the extra ears.

Did Marilyn Monroe really have 12 toes? :biggrin:
 
Is it a quadrapet?
 
Those two sub-ears look weird, at least now it doesn't have to twitch its ears back to hear something (assuming they work). Now it can hear all of the little mice and can pounce at will, its the ultimate killing machine.
 
I said quadrapet. get it? Quad-ra-Pet its funny. damn, no one laughs at my jokes. wonder if it would help if y'all had four ears or if that'd just make me just as dull at twice the volume.
