Whoahoohahoaoha

awww. poor kitty

don't they come out in sacs? I bet it must have been gross when it first came out, all writhing bloody and slimy. Then it's eye and it was probably screeching and stuff. But why is the eye open if it only lived one day? I thought they were born shut?

photoshopped

Whoa~what's in the water in Redmond, Oregon?

not photoshopped. this happens with cats breeds who are inbred too closely
very rare. similar to the two headed or two faced cat

I didn't like that at all.

sadface =(

my kitties are ragdolls, lovely cats

I wonder if that cat killed anyone with it's STONE STARE or LAZER BEAM GAZE before it died?

i bet the person who killed it is loving their jboots 4shure.

HAHAHAH

Poor little kitty. I feel worse that it was born with no nose than the one eye thing. Sucker probably had a hell of a time breathing, no nose means it could not feed correctly or anything because it would have to keep stopping to breath through its mouth while nursing. Its probably better the little guy did not make it. He is cute in an odd way though.

One-Eyed Cat Had Medical Condition

PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) - A photo of a one-eyed kitten named Cy drew more than a little skepticism when it turned up on various Web sites, but medical authorities have a name for the bizarre condition.

"Holoprosencephaly" causes facial deformities, according to the National Institute for Neurological Disorders and Stroke, part of the National Institutes of Health. In the worst cases, a single eye is located where the nose should be, according to the institute's Web site.

Traci Allen says the kitten she named Cy, short for Cyclops, was born the night of Dec. 28 with the single eye and no nose.

"You don't expect to see something like that," the 35-year-old Allen said by telephone from her home in Redmond in central Oregon.

Allen said she stayed up all night with the deformed kitten on her recliner, feeding Cy a liquid formula through a syringe. She says she cared for the kitten the next day as well, until it died that evening.

Allen had taken digital pictures that she provided to The Associated Press. Some bloggers have questioned the authenticity of the photo distributed on Jan. 6.

AP regional photo editor Tom Stathis said he took extensive steps to confirm the one-eyed cat was not a hoax. Stathis had Allen ship him the memory card that was in her camera. On the card were a number of pictures - including holiday snapshots, and four pictures of a one-eyed kitten. The kitten pictures showed the animal from different perspectives.

Fabricating those images in sequence and in the camera's original picture format, from the varying perspectives, would have been virtually impossible, Stathis said.

Meanwhile, Cy the one-eyed cat may be dead, but it has not left the building.

Allen said she's keeping the cat's corpse in her freezer for now, in case scientists would like it for research.

She said one thing's for certain: "I'm not going to put it on eBay."

Sad world when you have to say something like that.

No she is just driving up the price before the auction even starts

If that were my cat I would have some MIT guys put the carcass over some sort of remote controlled robot and preserve it. Then I would take it to the park and have it chase after children all the while whilst it made a shrieking noise.
