SHREWSBURY, Mass. -- Saved from being put to death, a two-faced cat has shown that beating the odds only takes a little love and faith.
Milbury native Marty saved the cat from being euthanized almost seven years ago.
"I just fell in love with him," Marty said. "I'm a bleeding heart."
Marty named the cat Frank and Louis so each face would have a name.
Frank and Louis have altogether two mouths, two noses and two working eyes.
Cats with two faces are extremely rare. Most die within a few days of being born, but not Frank and Louis.
"Everyday I thank God that he is still doing ok," Marty said. "He's like my son."

Any animal is too good for that name. Maybe name their feces Kerry and the one's following, Gore, He Clinton, Her Clinton, then Boxer, Pelosi, . . . you get the picture :-).

That's a joke...no way can an animal live for any length of time without a head. They have to be able to take in nutrition somehow.

Okay, a little weird, but a pretty kitty. It would appear that he is perfectly healthy. Why would they have put him to sleep?

I was wondering if there are two brains, and does he eat from both mouths? Very curious. But he seemed healthy and happy.

If the cat is happy and healthy, I don't see that there's a problem. He certainly doesn't know that he's unusual.

They have to be able to take in nutrition somehow.If you look closely, there is a straw sticking out of the hole. Apparently, Mags likes strawberry milk shakes...
No, you're right. It's a joke.
One animal that can live without a head, however,{ until it starves to death} is the cockroach. It has no brain--- just a series of large ganglia that runs down its body, and coordinates its nervous system.
