Two-Faced Cat Photos: Black and Ginger Face With Different Color Eyes [Video]
A striking two-faced cat has gone viral on the internet. The cat, named Venus, has two different color eyes and fur that is split right down the middle. One half of her face is black while the other is ginger. The images of the cat is not a result of Photoshop.
However, to prove skeptics wrong, the owners of Venus, came on the Today show on Wednesday to prove that the cat is for real.
Owners Christina and Chris denied that the cat has been spray painted or that Venus' look is fake. Christina told Today host Savannah Guthrie: "We've heard everything from Photoshop to we've dyed half of her face. This is just the way she was born, that's it.''
Venus' left side of the face is black with a green eye. The right side of her face is ginger with a blue eye.
Venus was a stray living on a farm before her owners took her in. Christina said, "We have an orange tabby and a black tuxedo at home, so when I first saw her, I said, 'Oh my gosh, she looks like a combination of both our cats. We didn't at that time see the eyes, so Chris's first reaction was, 'We do not need any more animals.' When we zoomed in on her eyes, we were just awestruck. I said, 'We just have to have this cat.'''
The photos of Venus were first posted on Reddit, receiving over a million hits. Now Venus even has her own Facebook page which has over 36,000 likes.
