And it has some similarities to Down syndrome.

But one of the defining characteristics of cri du chat is a larynx malformation so that babies, when they cry, like the loud screaming cry, make a very specific cry that sounds very much like a cat crying.

You can find a couple of videos on YouTube of people with their baby with crudishot crying, and it's really cute in a lot of ways.

But also you're like, that sounds a lot like a cat.

And it's so distinct that you can actually initially diagnose an infant with crudishot syndrome because of their cry.

It's that distinct.

Exactly.
