Kitten born with two faces stuns vets as it survives and thrives.




The owners of the pet by the name Bettie Bee were stunned when she was born in with two noses, two mouths and three eyes. 

Reports show that the kittens had given birth to a litter of three babies, yet only Bettie Bee suffers from the condition.

Vets advised that she should be put down as her condition would deteriorate as she aged.

But instead her owner sent her to a nearby cat rescuer to be looked after where she was fed with a tube.

Both of Bettie Bee’s mouths are functional and the rescuer, who wants to remain anonymous, said the young kitten was doing well.

The unfortunate animal is a ‘Janus Cat’, so-called after the Roman god who had two faces.
She appears to suffer from craniofacial duplication, or diprosopus.

Animals with this condition usually die in the womb or shortly after birth – but Bettie Bee is thriving, according to the rescuer.
