It is the Internet, so Yoda the cat's four ears could easily be an optical illusion or a camera trick along the lines of those semi-animated, talking cats whose mouths move on kitty litter commercials. Or perhaps the 2-year-old feline is just a remarkable showcase of genetic mutation.

I’ve noticed recently that if you go to Google, type in your search term and then add “ site:www.freerepublic.com” that threads come right up, even ones that were just added.

So for example typing: “four-eared cat” site:www.freerepublic.com

pulls up about four different FR threads.

If you use Firefox (or even MSIE) you can save a link to a FR-specific Google search.

Thanks for the tip.

Looks like someone cropped the tips of his ears in a creative way when he was younger. More creatively than the hack job usually given to pit bulls or to mark cattle.

Basement Cat in that one’s case I think...
