Cyclopia (or synophthalmia) is a birth defect in which a normally two-eyed animal is born with only a single fused eye, generally disproportionately large and centered on the face above the area where the nose would usually appear.
Stories featuring a kitten with a single cycloptic eye swept the internet in 2006:
Allen said she stayed up all night with the deformed kitten on her recliner, feeding Cy a liquid formula through a syringe. She says she cared for the kitten the next day as well, until it died that evening.Many viewers were tempted to write off the above-displayed photograph, distributed by the on 9 January 2006, as a fabrication because it seemed so far outside their realm of experience.
A photographer from the Associated Press — which initially took some flack for running her photo without seeing the cat in person — came to [Traci Allen's] house in Redmond, Ore. and took the deceased animal to a veterinarian for inspection, she said. The vet declared the animal a real cat.
