Yana, a cat with unique coloring, wins the hearts of netizens. On Instagram, more than 87 thousand people are following the life of a “two-faced” cat.
Yelizaveta, a rare cat, lives in Minsk, Belarus. “Yana was named after the two-faced Greek god Janus”, she explained.According to the girl, her cat is extraordinary “both inside and out.”
Yelizaveta’s fans adore Yana, admiring her rare color and even painting her in pictures. Nevertheless, Yelizaveta herself is creative, so her pet is often a source of inspiration for her artwork.Cats with such a color are extremely rare, according to experts. There is a high prevalence of this feature among tricolor cats. Nature has not yet produced cats of this color.
In the world, there are only a few cats of this color. Venus cats are the most popular. Aside from the perfectly even separation of black and red on her face, the cat’s eyes are of different colors – one green and one blue.Scientists believe Venus and cats like her are miracles of nature, whose origin can only be explained by long-term genetic studies.
Experts believe that animals with similar oddities are chimeras. Different sets of genes are found in different cells of the same organism. As a result of heterogeneous gene composition, the animal appears to be made up of two different species.
