He's just cool! And the parrot isn't too shabby either-watch the clip!

According to an article posted on News Telegram.com, a cat[/url] named Frankie and Louie has earned an odd Guinness World Record; he has become the longest living Janus cat. Not familiar with the term? A Janus cat is a cat that, despite the odds, is born with two faces.

Named after the Roman god Janus who had two faces, Janus cats have an incredibly low prognosis for living after they are born; more often than not, they die within a few hours or days after birth.

The Janus cat Frankie and Louie (cleverly given two names because he has two faces) has overcome those odds and earned his world record; he has lived for 12 years with his condition.

Frankie and Louie's life as a Janus cat is a little odd, to say the least. He has one head, two faces, three eyes (two normal eyes and a non-functioning third eye in the middle), two noses and two mouths. And all the body parts are operated by one brain. Talk about having a lot going on!

Cool! According to the Hindus (and others) we all have a third eye. Frank and Louie's is just visible. He's more enlightened. Image

I had a small parrot that would whistle the Andy Griffith theme song, lol. He was a redneck parrot, I guess........not refined enough for Opera. Image
