Narnia was born with electric blue eyes and a completely split gray and black encounter.  The 5-year-aged British Shorthair might have a exceptional genetic condition called chimerism.

New tests to define if Narnia is a chimera cat are in development,” claims operator Stéphanie Jiminez. Feline chimeras are formed when two kittens fuse alongside one another early in their mother’s womb. They have their own DNA and DNA from a next kitten. Primarily, Chimera kittens are their individual non-identical twin. 

Narnia was born on March 28, 2017, at the Chatterie de la Grâce. It is a little no-cage cattery in Paris, France. Stéphanie fell in enjoy with British Shorthair and British Longhair cats in 2010. “They look like child bears. They are sweet, variety, and quite smart,” she states.

Clues and claws: meet the ace pet detectives | Life and style

Anne-Marie, Sydney, Australia. Specialities: cats, dogs, rabbits, ferrets, goats, birds, pigs and horses

I’ve always preferred animals to people. I’ve never met an animal I didn’t like, whereas there are plenty of humans I could do without. As a young girl growing up in rural Queensland, I had my own Lassie dog – Sam – stolen from me, when I was six. My siblings were older, and Sam was my best friend. He went missing before microchips and registrations – I’m almost certain we found the family who took him, but that was never proved. It always stayed with me; I never got closure. I felt like I’d failed him, which is why I dedicate my life to tracking down other pets.
