Odd kitty's 10th life will be in museum

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.

• 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

• Chronic Fatigue Immune Dysfunction
• and 'gulf war syndrome'

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