How incredibly sad, poor kitties...
How would you feel waking up on Jan 2, after drinking a bit too much and have that looking at you?

Being too lazy to look this up, I think Siamese twins and Frank and Louie are twins that didn't fission completely.
The kitties had one brain according to one report I read, so I would be inclined to think of them as one person, although clearly they were on their way to being two and nature went out to lunch.
Fifteen years is a good lifespan for a cat, though. Cross the Rainbow Bridge in piece, little guys.
