You're not seeing double. Again.
A rare, two-faced kitten was born in Amity, Ore., on Tuesday. Stephanie Durkee, the owner of both the female kitten and its mother, took the two-faced cat to a vet, who say she's in good health. (She meows "loudly from both mouths," according to the Guardian.)
Durkee told Portland's KGW-TV the kitten—named "Deucy"—has been rejected by her mother, so she's been feeding her warmed kitten formula from a syringe.

A two faced cat?
It must be named “Democat”!

That's incredible, really. It makes me optimistic for the little Oregon kitten. Initially I was sure there would be medical/internal issues, but I guess it doesn't have to be that way.

Both faces seem to be well developed. I’m pulling for the little guy.

Apparently not the result of a zygote splitting. There is a protein called the sonic hedgehog protein mentioned in the Frank-and-Louie article.
I guess most of these creatures live only a little while, but Frank and Louie is still going strong. Good for them and for the owners. I hope this little kitten in Oregon grows strong and healthy.

I can understand why most 2-headed creatures are euthanized even if they don’t spontaneously expire soon after birth. Not sure what I’d do if a mama of mine gave birth to one of them. But I’m glad this baby in Oregon is being taken care of!

I thought all cats were two-faced? :)
