Mythical beast found alive!
Pet World taken aback.




Chicago- Scientists of the University of the Middle of the Road have captured a living specimen of the long sought "Cat-hen". For centuries the academic community has suspected there, indeed, was a living Cat-hen; that it was not, as had been thought, a mythical creature out of Luxumbourgeois folklore.

Dr. Heronimous Botch, of the University, said, "I first espied the trackings of what I instantaneously knew to be the Kentuckus-demousiusticus. It is impossible to miss the distinctive structural pedalic markings so familiar to all who have been involved with this research", he said referring also to his brother Ricky.

The Cat-hen -or, as some scientists prefer to call it, the Chick-Feline- will be on display at the University's School of Domestic Furnishings through the holidays.

Below is an artist's rendering of the
previously assumed appearance of the Cat-hen.

this "juvenile projection" facilitated
dismemberment of prey once entrapped.
