Winged-Cat Causes Sensation in China

A break from politics. As reported by Fox:

While most cats are known for their ability to land on their feet, some in China may soon be able to glide to safety on their mysterious wings.
A tabby from the Qingyan province in China recently sprouted a pair of fur-covered wings on his back during a hot-weather spell, the U.K.’s Daily Mail reported.

Maybe he was trying to cool himself off- not wings, a fan...
Immediately, the unique kitty became a spectacle to behold, as visitors flocked (very punny) to see the unusual feline.
One cat owner, identified only as Feng, claimed her pet’s wings were the result of stress from too many females desiring to mate with him, the Mail reported.

Too many females trying to mate with him, huh? Maybe they weren't wings?
“At first they were just two bumps,” she told the Mail. “But they started to grow quickly and after a month there were two wings.”
But the owner later grew fearful that the tabby would either be stolen by envious admirers or that it would fly away and decided to cut one of the two flappers off, World Entertainment News Network said.

He can still fly, just around in circles...
