According to a report by foreign media Bored Panda, a Russian blue cat from Turkey, Midas, was different from other cats when she was born. Due to a recessive gene mutation in his parents, Midas has a pair of small ears on his head. His cute appearance is like an elf, which has attracted the attention of netizens.
Canis Dosemeci, a poop shoveler, said that her friend found five newborn kittens in the backyard of her home, and Midas with four ears caught her eye deeply. But he was worried that it would be difficult to find an owner willing to adopt the cat because of its unusual appearance, so he finally decided to adopt the cat himself.
It is reported that the four-eared gene is a very rare recessive gene, because only when both male and female cats have this gene, it is possible to give birth to offspring with four ears. After a veterinary examination, Midas is in good physical condition. Only one pair of his four ears has hearing function, and the other pair is degenerated and cannot hear any sounds, but this will not affect his daily life at all.
Midas is currently about 4 months old. He is a very affectionate cat with a warm and cheerful heart. When it first met Katniss, it purred in relief and stretched out its paw to gently rub Katniss's cheeks. It had a very endearing personality. After arriving at his new home, Midas also got along well with his dog brother.
Later, Katniss even opened an IG account specifically for her, which unexpectedly became very popular among netizens. Katniss said that she was lucky to meet Midas and encouraged people to treat and adopt these special-looking animals and give them a stable and loving home.
