   I think they may be adopted.

   Miss Cellania, if so, only Cassia Aparecida and her husband knew the truth.

   No one saw her give birth, hence if it’s proven that the puppies aren’t feline (which no doubt will be done) it’s 100% debunked. Even if it was witnessed it still wouldn’t mean it’s true, people lie all the time.

   Either way, this is impossible, at best if something like that was possible, if canine sperm managed to fertilize a feline egg the end result would at best be a mutation which would result in a miscarriage shortly after the egg was fertilized. That’s common knowledge, two species that far apart genetically cannot be crossed without some pretty intensive genetic splicing, which pretty much is only avaliable on simple organisms, such as plants.

   You beat me to it, MrPumpernickel.

   This only shows how many people don’t understand basic biology.

   @ pookie
   Scientifically speaking, unlikely hybrids may happen but only among closely related species. The case above really never heard before.

   It brings to mind the Virgin Mary giving birth to Jesus.

    The history was already explained: the puppies of the cat died and she stole the puppies of a bitch to substitute.

    Dude, Mr P - across the vastness of the internet. Cool.

    And yes, seriously, this is a ridiculously frail offering. I even saw a news story about it on TV. It’s just…not right. With Science.

    Just one more thing: ‘Passo Fundo’, the Brazilian city where it took place to history, is not a poor city how it mentions the piece of news. It is a country city with many farms and his inhabitants are descending of Germans and Italians. It’s a lovely place, like almost places in the Brazil.

    i like factually neat things, not things that would be neat if only they were true. this brazilian chick belongs in “weekly world news.” it’s a commentary on modern american journalism that the question “did you see the cat give birth to the dog or are you just lying to suit a bizarre agenda?” is never even approached.

    This type of story is why credibility is being shot to hell these days.

    And also killer whale had once mated with a dolphin, as well as tiger with a lion etc….. I wonder when there will be times when while watching giving birth process, you will wonder: “Who will now come out of that hippo..a giraffe..or what about that seaeagle..maybe a seagull…Who knows??”
