Areless the deformed cat has found a failed family home and a soulmate

Meet Potato, the adorably deafeningly attractive earless cat who would nonetheless manage to snare your lady. Before being rescued by a local shelter, the cat was living on the streets of China.

Potato’s rescuers discovered him in a dreadful state; he had been unwell and abandoned for two years, and he had a rare tumor in his ear canals and ear flaps called ceruminous adenoma.

After failing to remove the adenoma, the veterinarians recommended completely removing the cat’s canals and flaps to prevent the tumor from returning.

Potato, thankfully, is doing well and has found a lifelong home as well as a new best friend in Horlick. Despite without having ears, the lovely cat’s new owners revealed on Instagram that he can still hear.

“No one knows when Potato was born or how old he is because he was a stray cat,” says the author.
They estimate that the dapper guy is roughly 6 years old, and since Potato was adopted on April 25, his owners have begun to celebrate that day as the cat’s birthday.
