This courageous little cat unfortunately lost his rear paws at a young age, but his strong determination to overcome the odds never wavered. Coming from a wild mother, Cassidy the kitty had to battle for his life during his first nine weeks in the woods.
TinyKittens discovered a small black and white kitten struggling on his front legs at a remote location in Otter-Aldergrove, Langley. Despite being severely malnourished and infected, the kitten displayed incredible resilience and perseverance until he was eventually saved from his dire situation.
Tiny Kittens posted on Facebook about how Cassidy, the cat with only two feet, was rescued by a concerned property owner. They worked together for two days to come up with a plan to catch Cassidy and his companion. After many hours of effort, the property owner managed to capture the cats successfully.
According to TinyKittens, Cassidy’s resilience in living without his hind paws for this long is truly remarkable and shows what a little miracle he is. Cassidy’s brother, Topper, is also thin but not as severely malnourished as Cassidy. They have a strong bond as the only surviving kittens from their litter, and Topper is very protective of his brother.
According to TinyKittens, the team at the shelter and clinic is working hard to ensure he receives the best care possible to recover fully.
“This little warrior has faced many obstacles from the start, but he managed to find his way to us and we are committed to giving him every opportunity to bounce back on his cute little paws,” Tiny Kittens stated.
In the image, vet tech Natalie (known for caring for Mr. Magoo The Cat) can be seen hand-feeding him, and he seems to be enjoying every moment of it.
According to TinyKittens, Cassidy has learned to move around by using his front legs for walking while lifting his back legs in the air. Thanks to the support from the team at Mountain View Veterinary Hospital and Andrew from Handicapped Pets Canada, Cassidy is now able to zoom around in the smallest wheelchair they have ever created. Check out the video of Cassidy taking his first solo steps in his new tiny wheelchair – it’s truly remarkable!
Regardless of the approach taken, they ensure that Cassidy’s well-being is prioritized and that she continues to have a fulfilling lifestyle.
Every day, Cassidy from TinyKittens continues to amaze us with his resilience, proving that even a feral kitten deemed unworthy by some can find joy and affection.
