Mangalore, Jan 15: A cat with one or more horns is found only in legends, stories involving sorcery, as well as sayings. This is so, because people have come to believe that cats can never have any horns.

A cat, which is being looked after by Vaman Salian’s family in Maravoor, Bajpe, near the city, appears to be trying to prove this belief wrong. Since the last few months, a horn-like object has been protruding from the centre of its head, in between its ears. Efforts made by some photographers earlier to catch it on camera had been proven futile, as the cat remained elusive most of the time.

While the cat itself appears to be unmindful of its celebrity status, the people are divided in their opinion as to whether this growth on its head is ominous or not. There are also those who claim that a cat with a horn is the sign that the times have changed for the worse, even though no one is sure that what they see on its head is a real horn.
