Cy the One-eyed Kitty

Tuesday January 10, 2006

This kitten was born with only one eye and no nose. Named Cy--short for Cyclopes--it's shown here in a photo provided by its owner in Redmond, Oregon, on Wednesday, Dec. 28, 2005.

The kitten, a ragdoll breed, died after living for one day. It was one of two in the litter, and its sibling was born normal and healthy.
