Expected to die, he went on to live for 15 years
He was euthanized at Tuffs University on Thursday from cancer

While blind in his center eye, both his outer eyes worked fine, and while he had two noses and mouths, he had only one brain.
awwww I feel curious, sad and happy all at the same time now he was so cuteeeee! He had only one brain so we he was really just one cat with 2 faces. How interesting and how fortunate that he lived for so long. He lived longer than my healthy normal cat .
