You can't get one exactly like her....she only has half the genes.

Do you know what an umbilical hernia is? It's a opening where the abdominal contents protrude through the abdominal wall. There are varying degrees...some are worse than others. It is possible to have an intestinal loop strangulation...meaning it protrudes out the hole and doesn't retract.

She'd be much healthier and happier if you spayed and had her hernia repaired. Enjoy her for the pet she is.
