Rare, Two-Headed Kitten, Janus Cats Named After Ancient Roman God (Video)

Two heads are better than one, right?

Or, at least that's what we hope pet-owner Stephanie Durkee believes.

At 6:11 a.m. on 6/11, a very special feline made her debut in Amity, Ore., according to The Huffington Post.

Her pet cat gave birth to a very rare, two-faced kitten, who the vet's confirmed is in good health, according to The Guardian.

Portland's KGW-TV said that Durkee is calling the cat "Deucy" and has been feeding her warmed kitten formula through a syringe after her mother rejected her.

"The kids ... came in and said, 'Mom there's a kitty with two heads,'" Durkee said, according to Portland's NBC affiliate. "And I said, 'I think you guys are just tired, you're crazy, that doesn't happen.'"

Never heard of this kind of thing? Well, two-faced cats have been gracing the planet for some time. Let's take a look throughout history.

In 2011, a two-headed cat named Frankelouie made the Guinness Book of World Records when he turned 12. This is the longest that a Janus cat has been known to live, which, in layman's terms, means "a cat with two faces."

Look back all the way to the Roman god Janus, who also had two faces, and we see, scientifically, that a Janus cat is a feline with a congenital disorder known as craniofacial duplication. This Greek term is called diprosopus, commonly referred to as "two-faced."

Life expectancy for these guys is usually around four days or less. However, some record breakers are showing other Jansus' alike that they can live to the ripe-old age of any other cat.
