Midas, whose name comes from the mythological king of Phrygia who was saddled with donkey ears but could turn everything he touched into gold, achieved internet fame with social media posts about her daily life with Suzi and Zeyno.
Though Midas' appearance may be unusual, her condition does not affect her health or hearing, according to her veterinarian Reşat Nuri Aslan. What sets Midas apart is that all four of her earflaps are connected to the ear canal.
Döşemeci said she hopes Midas' popularity can persuade people to adopt pets rather than buy them from stores.
"People are so surprised, they can't believe it," Döşemeci said. "Everyone wants to come to see her, or they want photos.
"Some people also find her scary, but generally people think her sympathetic."
