5. Update! Two-Faced Cat in Arizona Still Alive After Grim Outlook Predicted
A two-faced cat is still doing well seventh months after its owner was told it wouldn't survive.

When Lil'Bit was born his owner, an unidentified Arizona woman, called an animal shelter and was told not to expect him to survive, the Daily Mail reported.

'I got him a heating pad and started feeding him every 15 minutes from an eye-dropper," the woman told the Daily Mail. "I fed him like that for two or three months before starting him on proper cat food."

6. I've got a binary cat
It looks relatively normal except for waaaaaaaaaaayyyy too many toes 'cause it has vestigal extra feet.

However, it seems to be absolutely oblivious about some parts of its body, particularly its tail. You can pull it, squeeze it, step on it (by accident) and it simply doesn't care. The tail has full mobility, but just doesn't seem to be connected to the rest of the cat's nervous system.

I've been told I've got basically two cats in one. One is fairly normal except it doesn't have a tail. The other consists primarily of two vestigal feet, some other bits and pieces of wiring and a tail.

The cat purrs constantly. My theory is that the main cat is trying to soothe the other one.
