These Rare Genetic Mutations Created The Most Stunning Animals Ever

8.Even With Four Ears It Still Won't Listen to You

Meet Midas, the remarkable cat redefining what it means to have all ears! Thanks to her unusual genetic gift—four fully developed ears—this amazing cat has become rather popular on the internet, drawing an astounding following of over 330,000 dedicated lovers. Unlike other cats with comparable abnormalities, Midas's case is very interesting since all four of her ear flaps are completely attached to her ear canal, hence they are not only beautiful but also maybe useful. This unique genetic defect has produced a somewhat legendary look, evocative of her namesake from Greek mythology.

In every other respect, Midas is a completely healthy and typical cat despite her odd look. Her disease has not at all compromised her hearing capacity or quality of life. Her extra ears really seem to accentuate her beauty and personality, which helps to explain why her expressions are so striking. True to feline nature, although, having twice the normal number of ears does not mean she is any more likely to respond to her name or come when called - she maintains that classic cat independence that we all know and love, proving that some things about cats never change, no matter how many ears they have!
