Midas, simply ear-resistable!

Midas was born with two sets of ears and a defective jaw due to a genetic mutation, but this has not stopped this rare Turkish cat from becoming an internet sensation with thousands of followers on social media.

The young feline was born in a backyard in Ankara, Turkey, alongside five siblings and later adopted by Canis and her family.

They said they fell in love with Midas at first sight and wanted to take her in, concerned that her chances of finding a home would be hampered due to her unique condition.

“We have never thought of buying a cat, we just wanted to rescue a cat from the street, and we wanted to adopt her,” said her mom.

Midas, whose name comes from the mythological king of Phrygia who was saddled with donkey ears but could turn everything he touched into gold, achieved internet fame with social media posts about her daily life with her canine siblings Suzi and Zeyno.

Although Midas’ appearance may be unusual, her condition does not affect her health or hearing, according to her vet.

What sets Midas apart is that all four of her earflaps are connected to the ear canal.

Midas’ mom says she hopes popularity can persuade people to adopt cats rather than buying them from stores.

“Everyone wants to come to see her, or they want photos, she said.

“Some people also find her scary, but generally people think she’s cute and are sympathetic.”
