A Rare Cat Born With Four Ears; Yoda His Name Is

A rare cat born with two extra ears has recently resurfaced online after first garnering online attention over a decade ago.

Valerie and Ted Rock, the owners, adopted the special feline back in 2006 and decided to name him Yoda, a nod to the famous Star Wars character and legendary Jedi.

According to The Telegraph:

Yoda’s extra ears – which are not thought to help him hear – are not attached to the base of his skull, with one placed slightly behind the other. They are believed to be the result of a genetic mutation.

Aside from his genetic mutation, Yoda is a happy indoor cat with an ‘interesting obsession with bread’ according to Valerie. To learn more about Yoda, you can check out this Daily Mail article.
