No pictures-cat is nearly wild. When I caught her and got her spayed the vets looked at her closely and decided she might be a chimera. She has a full tabby coat over a tri-color coat. A recent case in horses had a brindle coat over a solid coat. They found out he was a chimera when they DNAed his first offspring. The stallion’s hair had different DNA from his reproductive cells. Brindle is not a coat color usually found in horses.

There was a short sci fi story several years ago. It dealt with a mid-21st century USA. The plot involved a football game in which all but one player were genetic hybrids of human and some animal. The lone human is quickly dispatched as he can’t possibly compete with the monstrously strong and fast hybrids. The story is through the eyes of a female hybrid who pities the human player.

Any Freeper name that story?
