Cat grows wings

Beijing - Granny Feng's tom cat has sprouted two hairy 4ins long wings, reports the Huashang News.

"At first, they were just two bumps, but they started to grow quickly, and after a month there were two wings," she said.

Feng, of Xianyang city, Shaanxi province, says the wings, which contain bones, make her pet look like a 'cat angel'.

Her explanation is that the cat sprouted the wings after being sexually harassed.

"A month ago, many female cats in heat came to harass him, and then the wings started to grow," she said.

However, experts say the phenomenon is more likely down to a gene mutation, and say it shouldn't prevent the cat living a normal life.

In Beijing she’s happy because now the stew will have six “drumsticks”.

Hmmm, *IF* this is true, and it is not due to industrial contamination causing the mutation...

This ought to put a big ol' hole in the creationist "hopeful monster" strawman.

Cheers!

Better a cat with wings than a baby born with two heads. What happened to that baby? Anyone know? There was a special on it recently but they didn’t indicate whether the baby survived the surgery, although it was reported that the baby no longer smiled.

"many female cats in heat came to harass him, and then the wings started to grow"

That'll do it.
