Cat in China grows a pair of wings
It's a bird, it's a plane, it's a … cat?

A kitty in Chongqing, China, is getting some extra-special attention these days: The furry feline has developed wings! Though born looking completely normal, once the cat hit the age of 1, he began growing wing-shaped appendages on either side of his spine, the U.K.'s Daily Mail reports.

1. This is what happens when you have no pollution controls.
Ingest enough bizarre chemicals, and you'll grow "wings" too.

11. The cats with this don't suffer at all.
I am glad they chose a fluffy white kitty to tell the world about this disorder.
