Dog Cat Breeds with Dog

According to http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/liv...70&expand=true , (and pardon my inability to make a decent link - the quick buttons, zey do nathing!) a cat, erm, mated with a dog and had kitten-puppies.
I googled it and didn't find much beyond this article and people criticizing the topic.


Anyone? x.x

The photo shows a cat with two puppies. Not kittens with "canine traits" as the article says-- those are definitely puppies. Either the cat's owner is pulling a scam or the mother cat found some puppies somewhere and brought them home.

Definately puppies. There's no doubt.

Hello Kitty

Mmhm, I don't deny that they are puppies... their noses are kind of kitty-like, but I haven't had much experience with very young puppies OR kittens.

Has anyone been able to find out any additional information about this?

Hang on, we've had this one on here before - a couple of months back! The critters were confirmed as puppies. Obviously a slow news day in the paper.

I thought it seemed familiar, but I couldn't find the previous post about it so I didn't post a 'chow.
