  • koolmoecraig, on 08/20/2008, -4/+51Uhhhhh since when does Yoda have 4 ears? Looks nothing at all like Yoda. More like a devil. How about Hellboy cat?
  • kiiwii, on 08/19/2008, -3/+28That thing is adorable.
  • UnFriendlyFire, on 08/19/2008, -2/+20Four ears, four ears, four ears. Other kittens can be so cruel.
  • phrawgh, on 08/20/2008, -0/+16Very strange cat, he is.
  • manzplan, on 08/19/2008, -3/+17WOW that cat is totally wild looking!
    probably the result of inbreeding - but still cool
  • bigfruitbasket, on 08/19/2008, -1/+14Can you hear me now? OK, how about now...?
  • uesc, on 08/19/2008, -4/+14i can has ear mites?
  • inactive, on 08/19/2008, -1/+8Wow, I wasn't aware that spore worked in real life
  • coryroo24, on 08/20/2008, -2/+9Good hearing he has.
  • Lewie, on 08/20/2008, -0/+6freak
  • EnnuiStudent, on 08/20/2008, -1/+7It's because:

    1. First type of adorable comment here.
    2. We agree with it.

    And buried for being contrary and surly for the hell of it.
  • Darksider, on 08/20/2008, -0/+5I myself welcome our new cat overlords
  • Myztry, on 08/20/2008, -0/+5Inbreeding doesn't cause mutation but convergence of a blood line (ie. receiving the same mutant gene from both parents) will greatly increase the chance of mutation manifesting, rather than simply being carried.
    Yada Yada Yada
  • piglet1350, on 08/19/2008, -0/+4I've heard of extra toes, but ears.....?
  • Po0py, on 08/20/2008, -0/+4It looks nothing like Yoda.
  • thegrantman, on 08/20/2008, -0/+4 He ignores you .......and you know damned well he heard you.
  • ParanoydAndroid, on 08/20/2008, -0/+4You're right about the nobody wanting to have sex with them, but as far as the cat goes, I would bet it's a genetic mutation. This implies that its kittens would be more likely to have 4 ears - and if 4 ears provides some sort of advantage (to hearing I would assume ...), then the mutation could stick around/

    ... except that they probably had him neutered ....
  • socivitus, on 08/20/2008, -0/+4Daily Mail being influenced by pictures submitted to Digg?

  • WELLDOITLIVE, on 08/20/2008, -0/+4Wouldn't he have been a knight before he became a master?
  • Erik1, on 08/20/2008, -0/+3Yoda (the real one) does not look too impressed about having his name stolen.
  • piglet1350, on 08/19/2008, -1/+4So ugly, he's cute!
  • Diggnabbit, on 08/20/2008, -0/+3http://icanhascheezburger.com/2008/02/27/funny-pic ...

  • widgetmaker, on 08/20/2008, -0/+3Buried for daily mail
  • Gsicht, on 08/20/2008, -0/+2*Yoda quote insert here*
  • Dylson, on 08/20/2008, -1/+3OH HAI

    I HAZ EAR MITES
  • eadnams, on 08/20/2008, -0/+2damnit, beat me to it :P
  • Darksider, on 08/20/2008, -0/+2Holy crap your comment was so crappy I had to digg your bitch ass down
  • inactive, on 08/20/2008, -0/+2is this how evolution happens?

    random mutations? if the cat has offspring is his/her kids more likely to have four ears?
  • Zalyster, on 08/20/2008, -0/+2My neighbor had a cat with two tails. Well, the second one wasn't much of a tail, since it was much smaller and sagged a lot, but it was always just kind of odd to look at. Sadly it died of some cat disease after only a few years. :(
  • obxjdt, on 08/20/2008, -1/+3Too cool!!! I love cats, I'd take this cat in a heart beat!
  • borez, on 08/20/2008, -1/+3I have to agree, can we stop digging up the the Daily Mein Kampf please. This tabloid piece of crap paper spreads racism , xenophobia, hate and false propaganda to the British people, it supports Nazism and Fascism and twists the news with a totally inaccurate and biased slant.

    As ideology said "It's the British equivalent of digging Fox New" ...and then some. Therefore it's disappointing and somewhat irritating for a British freethinking person to see it within the pages of Digg.

    I've said my piece... your call.

    Yoda from the source: http://www.barcroftmedia.com/index.pgi
  • ideology, on 08/20/2008, -1/+3People, we need to stop digging the Daily Mail.

    It's the British equivalent of digging Fox News and we all know how much the Digg community respects that "fair and balanced" media outlet.
  • widgetmaker, on 08/20/2008, -0/+2Fox news is really that bad?
  • palehorse864, on 08/20/2008, -0/+2If a can opener is used anywhere in the country, he's onto it!
  • phosphite, on 08/20/2008, -0/+2Wow, somebody elses cat is named Yoda besides mine!! (I didn't name him, my mother-in-law to be did! :)
  • limedcoconut, on 08/20/2008, -0/+2Basement Cat Rises!
  • ParanoydAndroid, on 08/20/2008, -0/+1Yes.
  • Cybermaul, on 08/20/2008, -1/+2Actually, that rule is only applicable to natural selection, not genetic mutation in relation to inheritance. If an individual in a population has a genetic mutation, then that individual will pass a copy of his/her genes to their offspring, advantageous or not. I mean, look at us humans. Bad teeth, poor eyesight, bow-leggedness, hemophelia - all genetically inherited traits that are definitely not advantageous to us in the slightest, yet passed on just as easily as the genes to allow for better eyesight, stronger teeth, superior bone structure, and the like.
  • eadnams, on 08/20/2008, -0/+1... we say it all the time... In fact, I refer to three different nigth spot types... Pub, Bar, and Club
  • Roagie, on 08/20/2008, -0/+1That is not a mutation, but rather a dormant gene that was accidentally switched back on. Those ears are from that cat's ancestors somewhere along the evolutionary chain.
  • EnnuiStudent, on 08/20/2008, -0/+1Depends how much a-game this cat really has?

    Chances are probably higher in its offspring to have this similar mutation (although probably still low), when compared to just a normal cat.
  • Myztry, on 08/20/2008, -0/+1Plus how many thumbs...
  • Spuy767, on 08/20/2008, -1/+2Buried as inaccurate, YOda wasn't a jedi knight, but a jedi master.
  • ParanoydAndroid, on 08/20/2008, -0/+1I was under the impression that since the Daily Mail was carrying this, Valerie was a British ex-pat living here in America ... which would explain why she says "pub."
  • Whitey07, on 08/22/2008, -0/+1That is just weird..
  • adolfojp, on 08/20/2008, -1/+2Only if the mutation gives the cat and its offspring an evolutionary advantage.

    In the case of this cat? No.
  • MxM111, on 08/20/2008, -0/+1How often do you see cat with four ears? Come on! It is not the look, it is the fact itself which worth "looking" at!
  • ManicMyna, on 08/20/2008, -0/+1Illogical Captain
    this cat is more spock than yoda
  • sexybobo, on 08/20/2008, -0/+1I think they usualy call the second "tail" a penis.
  • ScottoGato, on 08/20/2008, -0/+1http://mine.icanhascheezburger.com/view.aspx?ciid= ...
