Two-faced kitten born in Oregon. Nature or Monstanto? You decide! [View all]

Deucy is a rare Janus cat, named after the Roman god with two faces.

Her owner, Stephanie Durkee, took her to the veteranarian, who told her the newborn appeared to be healthy with a single set of organs and everything in working order. She has four eyes, two noses and two mouths.

Deucy is apparently very lucky: Janus cats often die very shortly after birth thanks to duplicate or conjoined internal organs, such as Gemini, a kitten who died after just a few days because he had two tracheas going into one throat.
