I would like to add that the cat is almost certainly a normal cat. Split face torties is an entirely normal and common tortoiseshell pattern. It is not at all indicative of a chimera. The only way to tell for 100% certainly a cat is a chimera is with genetic testing. Here are some cats that are (probable) actually chimeras, though I can't speak for them being bilateral gynandromorphs.

Dawntreader Texas Calboy the maine coon, a male tortie who has been genetically tested as a chimera, and who has fathered kittens

Quimera, who i believe is just a moggie, she has a split face but that's almost certainly just a coincidence. You can see on her black areas, she displays both solid and tabby patterning, which is impossible on the average cat
