A kitten named 'Duecy' has been gaining widespread attention after being born with two faces.
The tiny feline is a rare example of a "Janus" cat, a name which refers to the Roman god of the same name that also had two faces. Unfortunately Duecy was rejected by her mother when she was born but thanks to the efforts of her owner Stephanie Durkee, she is now in safe hands.
Typically cats born with these type of deformities tend not to live very long, but so far Duecy appears to be in good health. To help keep her warm she is being kept in a dresser drawer surrounded by heating pads and towels.
A kitten with two faces has been born in Amity, Oregon. The tiny feline, who meows loudly from each mouth, was rejected by her mother and is now being hand-fed by owner Stephanie Durkee, who has named her “Duecy”.
