(A) Having extra flaps wouldn't enhance hearing - in fact, it could be a handicap, which might explain why cats with the trait have generally lost out in the survival-of-the-fittest race. " Likewise, Enticingkit would NOT have "better" hearing! If anything, It might give her worse hearing! INFO FOUND ON https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_cat_body-type_mutations#Ear_types - " Researchers believed that the functioning of the brain was affected. Breeding data indicated it was most often lethal with kittens dying in utero. The majority of !recently reported four-eared cats have been healthy with various ear configurations suggesting other genes were involved! or developmental abnormalities rather than hereditary factors." So, No, Enticingkit would not have a 100% chance of Lethalness from her mutation! Though, she is of the rarer. "In a group of four-eared cats studied in 1957, in addition to duplicated ears, the eyes were reduced in size, the jaw was slightly undershot and the cats were relatively inactive and lethargic." Due to this, I would give Enticingkit a bit smaller eyes then others in her clan, Though I would keep out the undershot jaw. I would also make her slightly sluggish, or frail which would cause her to stand out from the other energetic playful kittens in the nursery, which might cause insecurities down the line! If I get more info, I'll paste it here!

I love writing little stories and such, as its one of my hobbies! || Ive been in several different roleplays, sometimes even an admin. I usually write at least 2 paragraphs but sometimes depending on how much information you let me go off and my mood it differs! || Pending (waiting for females to be let in the clan.) my baby Begonia! So technically dont have one yet, but yk. || Enticingkit. || As soon as I saw and read her description I saw major potential on how I could shape her as an interesting character! || She is Bicurious and Demigirl! Mostly going by She/They, Though sometimes She/Her. || Enticingkit was never energetic, She was slug like and short of energy. No one quite understood, but they all assumed it was due to her ear mutation. This made them very insecure, Due to never being able to keep up with the other kits in the nursery. Though, she kept their feelings to themselves due to not wanting anymore attention. She felt disgraced by herself, as if she were to blame themself for the mutation. No one could quite understand her feelings, due to her constantly shifting herself to try and match other cats around her to fit in. || [+] Empathetic, Charitable, Loving. [=] Pessimistic, Self-deprecating, Exhausting. [-] Insecure, Nervous, Biased. || Id love to see her become an Elder! If not, I will keep her alive until shes at least a senior warrior. || Research on her mutation is in Instructions! || Enticingkit watched solemnly at the other kits playing outside the nursery as They laid in Their moss nest, twiddling with a feather in between her dark front paws lazily. /Why can't I be like them? Why dont I have that much energy like they do? Why won't anyone explain why im different? Even Enchantingkit could run and play. Instead I-/ The noise of the kits laughter cut their thoughts off, and they huffed loudly. "Guys!-" She pushed to her paws, Squeezing out the entrance of the nursery and Walking outside. As she began playing it had only been around ten-ish minutes before she had to stop to sit down under a tree to take a breath. /How do they do that? for so long??/ She thought, frustrated at herself. || Enticingkit has a major fear of the dark, Along with hating being alone. She has 4-eared cat mutation, AKA Pinnae mutation or Pinna! || Bream, Embrace Reality.
