Cyclops Kitten
January 22, 2006
I’ve been shown this poor little kitten a couple times now, so after feeling confident about it’s validity, I figured I should blog it…
According to some sources, the shortly lived kitten suffered from Cyclopia, a medical disorder characterized by the fusion of the orbits into a single cavity containing one eye.
Other places report that the cause was Holoprosencephaly, which causes facial deformities, according to the National Institute for Neurological Disorders and Stroke, part of the National Institutes of Health. In the worst cases, a single eye is located where the nose should be, according to the institute’s Web site.
Anyway, the common report from the AP provided by Yahoo news:
Cy, short for Cyclopes, a kitten born with only one eye and no nose, is shown in this photo provided by its owner in Redmond, Oregon, on Wednesday, Dec. 28, 2005. The kitten, a ragdoll breed, which died after living for one day, was one of two in the litter. Its sibling was born normal and healthy.
Traci Allen is keeping the kitten’s corpse in case science wants to research it. I wish they would so I could feel even more confident this poor thing is real… If so, maybe it would qualify as world’s ugliest cat!

She said one thing’s for certain: “I’m not going to put it on eBay.â€?
well thank heaven for small favors
i feel so sorry for that cyclopia.i am glad i didnt come out to look like that
that poor kitty is not even close to being the worlds ugliest cat, the poor thing was born with a defect.
any one who would make fun of that cute kitten should be ashamed of thereselves. i love all animals, even if their the ugliest animal in the world.
i fell sorry for the cute little kitten.it is so cute n i wish it was mine. i dont care that it has 1 eye any thing living is a wonder!
Poor thing!!!!!
hahaha!!!
quite, it would certainly have gone under world’s ugliest cat had it survived, yet bless the poor kitty, he/she must have been pretty extroardinary for science (not sure if its a first, the named disorder suggests not) in birth and is further evidence that the mythological creatures we know were often based on perfectly plausible natural occurential rarities that were at the time unexplainable, facinating for anthropologists… all hail Cy! peace, kitty
that kitty is quite cute actualy but them dogs scare me ahhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!
i feel very sorry for that poor kitten, i dont know how you could call he/she ugly. the kitten was a lovely extroardinary creature. i would love to have a kitten like that. power to the cy peeps. hehe
I FEEL VERY SORRY FOR IT. I REALLY WISH I COULD HAVE ONE OF MY OWN.
That cat is so cute! I feel so sorry for it! It was so helpless! The dog is so discusting tho, it CREEPS ME OUT!!!
the cat is so cute, and it makes me sad to look at it! I think the dog should be put down, it gives me nightmares!
this cat is a total embaressment to the united states!!!! why the heck does it only have one eye??? When people see this, they will either start to laugh their head off!!!
I feel bad for the poor little kitty.
OMG it’s so cute can i have him
Alex you creep! That poor little kitten! How would you like it if you had one eye? And it’s NOT a embaressment to the whole united states Toby!
Ohhhh! That kitten is SOOOOOOOOO CUTE!!! Sigh. I wish that it didn’t die after one living day…
this kitten is so ugly and it only has 1 eye its RANK!!!!
This is the cutist kitten but i feel really sorry 4 this kitten cause it only has 1 eye1.
that kitten is beautiful and i don’t know why people have to be so rude. i had a baby with the same birth defect who died 2mins after i had him. it can happen to anyone and anything. people who make fun of that are sick and they need help
why is it that you people don’t relize that this is a FAKE?????????? They forgot that the eye should be smaller.People who post this sort of material are desperately in need of attention.Life is full daily of sad situations,why not post something positive?Be sensitive that not everyone wants to view a picture of this nature.Find photos that inspire and build hope.You may sleep better at night if you indeed sleep at all!!

Actually cyclopia is a medical condition usually a abnormality in a gene or also can be caused when the mother ingests certain toxins in a specific time during gestation. It isn’t from the fusion of the orbital cavities it is actually because the brain initially forms as one main lobe and during development eventually splits into two main lobes, and after this occurs neurons extened and the orbital cavities are formed. In cyclopia the brain never actually splits in two therefore only one “neuron arm” extends and forms the orbital cavity around it and hence there is only one eye. Just thought I would clear that up :P
