Brazilian student Cassia Aparecida de Souza, 18, holds her cat Mimi together with what Cassia claims are Mimi's own offsprings born with dog traits last Friday, three months after mating with a neighbour's dog, in the southern Brazilian city of Passo Fundo, Rio Grande do Sul state, November 15, 2006. A geneticist from the Passo Fundo University plans to take blood samples from the animals to verify the claim by Cassia and her husband Rogerio that the puppies are part of Mimi's litter of six, of which the three that were born with cat features died soon after birth, leaving the surviving three dog-like offsprings.

What do you guys think of this?
 
species that are not closely related can not breed...well, they can not have offspring. This is because they do not have enough matching genes to support life.
 
My coworker is from Brazil. He said that people out there will do anything for a quick buck and/or publicity. He has seen people make up lamer things. He is just surprised, as am I, that the story made it onto Reuter/Yahoo. Something like this is usually passed over.
