Animal Planets. Weird, True And Freaky: The Cats With Genetic Alterations.?

There Was An Episode With The Human Altered Animals. I Know The Rat With The Implanted Ear On Its Back Was On There. There Was Also A Cat Breeder Who's Cats Had LITTLE Front Legs... Like They Couldn't Walk On Them. I'm Trying To Find A Picture Or Video Clip Of That Episode. I've Looked And Looked And Can't Find One!!! Please Send Me A Link If You Have One.

1. Apple.com may have it. Or animal planet.com may have it.
2. The cats are called Munchkin cats. They are basically dwarfs, same as dog breeds like Daschunds. Not too keen on them myself. But if you look on YouTube for Munchkin cats there are loads of videos... Edited: OK, I was wrong... not Munchkins. I guess I saw a different program. I can live with Munchkins, but what is this woman on? Especially as she says she never sells them... does she believe spaying is wrong or something?
3. This link has the clip from Animal Planet. http://www.bestweekever.tv/2008/11/06/twisty-cats-so-adorable-its-retarded/ However, please be aware that cats born with short forelegs are suffering from a disabling genetic condition known as Radial Hypoplasia. Unfortunately the lady in the clip finds this deformity cute and has deliberately bred the trait and sells the kittens as Twisty cats. She calls herself a cat breeder, but in-breeder would be a more appropriate description. No living creature deserves to be exploited or bred for a physical deformity and it is extremely cruel to do so.
