HBO’s INorthwest Roundup — 4/14/09

Kara Kuh of Willamette Humane Society in Salem, Ore. shows off a cat recently brought in as a stray. WHS staff say they have never seen anything like the approximately 1-inch wide by 3- inch long fatty tissue pouch that grows out of the cat’s head, droops down and completely covers his face. Possibly an old abscess. Staff have dubbed the cat “the Donald”, since the growth resembles the hairstyle worn by billionaire Donald Trump. (AP Photo/Statesman Journal, Kobbi R. Blair)
