Four-eared kitten’s ‘normal’ home

GARMISCH-PARTENKIRCHEN, Germany: A four-eared German kitten, Lilly, has been given a new home after a German animal shelter was deluged with requests to adopt the animal born six months ago. “We wanted to make sure the people were looking for a normal cat and not a gag to make an exhibition out of her,” Enrico Schlag, a worker at the Garmisch-Partenkirchen animal shelter, said on March 25. “We’ve found a completely normal family for her that has already adopted cats from us.”
