Conjuka by *vera

Artist commentary

A new Langurhali. She is inspired by conjoined kittens, born with a similar mutation of the skull. (See: http://www.messybeast.com/freak-face.htm CAUTION: Real photos of kittens born with mutations, may be disturbing to some viewers.) Sometimes they may share one center eye, or two separate pairs as with Conjuka here. Rarely do the real cats born with two heads reach adulthood. Such feline mutations fascinate me, so expect a lot more oddities in the future. Such as polydactyl paws and 'winged cats'...

Conjuka shares the same body, digestive system, esophagus and other organs, as well as the same brain - however she has two different personalities. Because of this, people may often call (her) left side "Conjie" and the right "Jukah' so as not to cause confusion when speaking to one side or the other. They have two separate tails, and are able to control only their side of the body, thus they must work together to perform the simplest tasks, such as walking, clapping, climbing, sitting, or jumping. While they may talk separately and have two different vocal cords, their eyes always blink at the same time, and many of their central muscles can be difficult to control due to them both being controlled by the same nervous system. If one feels pain, as does the other.

    cool, but what about the organs they only have one of? would they both feel everything?
    Love one, love all. Embrace one, embrace the world.
