A dog has become a local celebrity in a Chinese village after she reportedly gave birth to a kitten.

A dog has become a local celebrity in China after apparently giving birth to a kitten. Vets say the cat-like animal is a dog with a gene mutation /Lu Feng

Hua Chengpeng, of Huayang village, Jiangyan city, told People's Daily that the unlikely animal was the third 'puppy' in his pet's litter.

"The first two puppies the dog produced were both normal, but when the third baby came, the whole family was very surprised to see a cat-like creature. It is a cat, not a dog at all," he said.

Local residents have been flocking to his house to see the 'kitten' which local vets say is really a puppy which looks like a cat because of a gene mutation. It apparently yaps like a puppy.

Hua says his son brought the dog home from Liaoning city, where he had been working, a year ago.

linky


looks like a kitten to me. it was probaly just placed in the litter

yeh i agree there are a few things in the world with strange animals that can be believed.

for example a few years ago they found the offspring of a horse and a zebra (google quagga)

however, a dog having a cat i dont htink so it would of have to been set up.

and do you notice how the two puppies look like a different species of dog as the mum.

^ yeah the puppies do look different but at that age its hard to tell

also if the kitog was a mutation it would be around the same size as the puppies wouldnt it? I still say it was a plant these people need to find another way to make a quick dollar

what. ever.

Wasn't there a story a while ago about a cat giving birth to a puppy? maybe they know each other!

Fake.....it would have been mutated/deformed.

but what if the kitten barks?

people will do anything to get their 15 min of fame. fake fake fake!

I reckon it is a set-up. If the family were poor, they are looking for thousands for their story.

Now if there was video evidence of the kitten being born to the doggy, that may have been a different story....

F-A-K-E! Fake! Fake!

I've heard of dogs nursing kittens or cats nursing puppies, but the 2 would never give birth to a different species. I may have been born in the early morning hours, but not this morning! Cute pups & kitten though.

Remember that South American case of a cat having puppies or something silly.

Wht kind of gene mutation would make a dog look like a cat; and, wouldn't this sort of thing be happening all the time? This is a bunch of bull.

Biologically impossible. There is too much genetic difference between cats and dogs for a dog to "have a kitten". And there is no genetic disorder to make one animal look like a totally different species. I want DNA testing on those animals.

There could have been a mutation?

It's biologically impossible. That's all I'm gonna say.

i gonna agree with every one else.....fake

That resembles a cat way too much to be a mutated dog.

That's just plain silly, convenient how the mutation looks EXACTLY LIKE A KITTEN.

Well... My kitten/cat (she's a year now) sounds like a goat I kid you not. She has ever since she was little, my other cat mjaus like a kitten, really pathetic little mjau, and Xabi just goes "Meeeeeeehhheeheeeee" and you can hear her all over the house. Especially if she cant find you, she's like a goat crossed with foghorn. Oh yeah, and she grazes too..

I think its fake - the kitten looks waaay younger than the pups, poor thing!

They just put a newborn kitty in with the litter of pups.

so freaking fake, its not possible at all, unless maybe they transplanted a cat fetus in the dog, but I still seriously doubt that.....

until is see that video its just a poor kitten that was planted to make a story

Is it just me or do these kittens look just alike??

awwwww

a dog with a kitty look? looks like it will never reach the adult stage because of some complications. but...

naughty naughty naughty dog. so desperate she went for a male cat. so sad.
now i want one. hahah

Lets just ignore the fact that this is genetically impossible.

If it gets older and starts barking, then I'll believe.

I have a little demon kitty and when she gets in one of her moods she likes to speak with this really fake spanish accent, it's weird because it's obvious to everyone else because we all know she was born here in Colorado but she keeps on doing it anyway.



and she thinks she's a dog so it's, "el barko... el barko!"
