Why are there so many 4 eared cats?

Ok, so it's a very niche compaint, but I really like to collect various cat pets, and the only thing that kind of irks me is that all cats that use the "fluffy" model seem to have 4 ears. I know that it is supposedly a rare condition, and nothing against it, but I would like to see more cats with regular number of ears. :)

    You’re not alone. I’m disappointed every time we get a new 4-eared cat. I don’t like mutations that give animals more features than what they have by default, such as 4 ears and polydactyly. Nothing against anyone with such mutations, my problem is with the concept of them being cute in pets, therefore a desirable trait, therefore pets are bred intentionally to have more with that trait. At least the 4 ears aren’t harmful to the cats as far as I’m aware.

    Funnily enough, that's the only cat model I like in ESO. I love cats, but cats in ESO "look weird" to me. These are the only cute ones.

    I dislike the four eared cats and disagree that they are the only cute ones.....

    This is the cutest cat by far imo!

    But technically... That isn't a cat, right? I agree cubs are nice, but they are not cats... Felines yes, but when I think of ESO cats I think of the many "domestic cat" with curved inelegant back.
