In one of the houses of Ankara, a small cat presented a big surprise: she had a kitten with 4 ears and a heart-shaped spot on her stomach. Now he has more than 125 thousand followers on Instagram.

The unique appearance of a cat named Midas is the result of a genetic mutation.

According to the veterinarian of Resat Nuri Aslan, the lovely creature does not suffer from such a game of nature, has normal hearing and health. The animal got its nickname in honor of the semi-mythical king, who not only turned everything he touched into gold, but also had donkey ears.

The development of "extra" body parts in the animal world occurs periodically. For example, two years ago, a Narwhal puppy had to be operated on, who was born with a "spare" tail right on his head. Another dog at the same time was born with two mouths, but one ear.
