Cat dog

Brazilian student Cassia Aparecida de Souza, 18, claims her cat’s offspring has been born with dog traits last Friday, three months after mating with a neighbour’s dog in the Brazilian city of Passo Fundo.

Cassia, and her husband Rogerio, claim that the puppies are part of the cat, Mimi’s litter of six.

They said that the three born with cat features died soon after birth, leaving the surviving three dog-like offsprings.

A geneticist from the Passo Fundo University plans to take blood samples from the animals to verify the claim.

In the meantime, all we can do is guess as to how else a cat/dog cross breed could result…
