Odd kitty's 10th life will be in museum

Me-wow - The one-eyed, noseless animal from Oregon will be preserved in New York

A one-eyed, noseless kitten from Oregon that stirred international debate last year over whether it was a hoax will become the "spokesanimal" for a new museum of anomalies intended to launch discussions about how science and religion intersect.  ETC

it's for real. Veterinarians said it suffered from a rare disorder called holoprosencephaly.

I  took a look at he link you give, and found the following hi-lights:
holoprosencephaly (improper brain lobe development) can have the following associated with it:
  • cleft lip or other facial abnormalities
  • Endocrine disorders: Diabetes insipidus (DI) occurred in 70% of patients with classic HPE.  severity of the DI correlated with the grade of HPE and hypothalamic non-separation
  • cardiac malformation or effects
I think researchers should look in the direction of 2-butoxyethanol for causing such.  From what I've learned about it, 2-butoxyethanol is a pesticide, a poison, a frequently used solvent. 

It is a teratogen chemical, meaning it harms the developing fetus.  I suspect it for causing

Do any of you know any gulf war vets or Exxon Valdez oil spill cleanup workers? 

It is a chemical exposure they share in common:  2-butoxyethanol. 

But so have many in the general population (without realizing it)
