What??
A cat, Mimi, nurses what its owner Cassia Aparecida de Souza claims are Mimi's own offsprings born with dog traits last Friday, three months after mating with a neighbour's dog, in the southern Brazilian city of Passo Fundo, Rio Grande do Sul state, November 15, 2006. A geneticist from the Passo Fundo University plans to take blood samples from the animals to verify the claim by Cassia and her husband Rogerio that the puppies are part of Mimi's litter of six, of which the three that were born with cat features died soon after birth, leaving the surviving three dog-like offsprings.

Is that even like. Genetically possible?

NYAPRS Note: My daughters and I shared a powerful experience earlier this week, when we visited 'Lost Case, Recovered Lives,' the extraordinary exhibit illuminating on the lives of former residents of Willard PC at the NYS Museum. In the midst of this compelling multi-media exhibition, we took in the life and story of gentle and talented people like Dmytre (see below), who was admitted to Willard following the death of his wife during a miscarriage...and whose suitcase contained both a touching wedding picture of Dmytre and his wife and the faded wedding dress he kept until his own death many years later. I make it a point not to go to movies and exhibitions about our work so that I can preserve personal and family time that is hard to come by. This was a most appropriate exception: do come to Albany and take in this personal, powerful exhibit.
