‘He came into GAWS with his brother after being found living under a house. He had a very deformed eye which required surgery to remove but he’s doing really well,’ Mrs Anderson told the Geelong Advertiser.
‘I’ve researched it to see if it’s a genetic fault but it’s so rare there’s not much written about them.’
Frankie has become close friends with Mrs Anderson’s young son Arthur.
‘They’re great together,’ she said.
His name Frankie is short for Frankenkitten, a reference to his stitches resulting from surgery
Veterinarians are unsure how Frankie came to have four ears instead of the usual two
