A Kitten That No One Wanted Because He Was Born With Deformities, is an Instagram Star
It's a modern version of the ugly duckling fable - Midas was born atypical. He is a cat with double ears that make him look strongly unusual. Initially unwanted by no one, he is now taking Instagram by storm.

#Midas - Cat with Double Ears
Midas is a few months old Russian Blue cat. His homeless mother gave birth to him and his six siblings in the garden of one of the houses in Turkey.
#Two Pairs of Ears
At first no one was too keen to take our hero in - because of his double ears. But there were people who did not mind.
#Adoption
A cat with double ears was finally adopted by Canis Dosemeci and her partner. They probably completely failed to anticipate what happened two months later.
#Midas on Instagram
One day Canis decided to create an instagram account for Midas. The popularity he has gained and is gaining among viewers has surpassed their wildest expectations.
#Midas Fame
Midas has had an account on Instagram for only a month, and already has nearly 70,000 followers. More are growing at an alarming rate (only at the time of writing this article he gained almost a thousand new ones!)
#Happy Kitten
The kitten probably has no idea he's a star, but that's not what's important - what's important is that he's loved and happy, as you can clearly see in the photos.
Would you take in a cat that was unusual in some way?
