Meet Yoda, a four-eared cat from Chicago. Yoda's extra ears - which are not thought to help him hear - are not attached to the base of his skull, with one placed slightly behind the other. They are believed to be the result of a genetic mutation.

According to Valerie Rock, Yoda has to be kept indoors as she fears that catnappers might target their very special feline. She states that Yoda "has been an indoor cat and has a chip installed in case he gets lost, Yoda is so different that we were concerned that he might be catnapped."

Multi-eared cats are rare, but not unheard of. In 2004, a six-month-old cat with two extra ears was put up for adoption at an animal shelter in Germany, and in the same year Russian media reported that a kitten had been born with seven ears.
