I have heard of this before. It is a severe case of conjoined twins.

Poor little mites but at least they passed to Rainbow Bridge loved by their mum and their humans.

RIP little ones. Run free at the Bridge

I can't load the link. But I saw it on television the other day. Poor darling. So they did pass to the bridge?

Sometimes nature can be so cruel.

RIP kittens
If people would spay, it wouldn't be such a problem. I think inbreeding might cause something like this though I'm no expert

Why was that cat having kittens in the first place. Grr.

That is so sad! It is too bad that the vet couldn't have a heart and give poor "Two-face" a more comprehensive exam. What would it have hurt to show a little compassion to the kitty and owners.

Play happily over the bridge little one(s)

I watched a documentary on TV about 18 months ago. It was about 2 headed terrapins. Seemingly, it's becoming more common.

Not sure inbreeding's got anything to do with it but I do wonder if it's got a lot to do with GM foods, water/food contamination or something like that.
