IF two heads are better than one this freak kitten has definitely got a head start in life.
The animal, which is to be named Quasimodo by his owner, was born on Wednesday in Perth, Australia.
Both of the kitten's heads 'meow' and purr but only one can eat as the other has a cleft palate.
Nurse Louisa Burgess, who delivered the kitten, said: 'I have seen cats with two tails and extra legs, but nothing like this.
'This is the result of a congenital deformity. Something has gone wrong in the early embryonic development.'
The kitten was one of three in the litter - its siblings were born without any deformities.
In August a kitten with four eyes, two noses and one mouth was born in Ohio, but died after five days.
Another two-faced kitten was born in a litter of seven in Texas in February.
