Cy-The Cyborg Kitty


Cy(cyborg) kitten: Cy, short for Cyclops, a kitten born with only one eye and no nose, is shown in this photo provided by its owner in Redmond, Oregon, on Wednesday, Dec. 28, 2005. The kitten, a ragdoll breed, which died after living for one day. A few days ago the owner of the kitten sold Cy's remains to The Lost World Museum.

"The Oregon woman who owned the kitten said she turned down Ripley's Believe it or Not! and sold the remains to John Adolfi of Granby because she liked his religious reasons for wanting them.

"We didn't want Cy becoming a joke or part of a personal collection," Traci Allen said. "But John was so heartfelt, you could tell he was genuine and sincere..."

Other exhibits will include giant plants and eggs, deformed animal remains and archaeological finds, Adolfi said."
