    i love that you have special needs babies! we get a lot of kittos that are missing 'parts' but they get along just fine :wink: they are the best! good for you! :heart:

    we always joke and say we have 3 and a half cats
    Jacob really is the special love of my heart. he has a birth defect that is called radial aplasia, did you ever hear of that $%^&* woman in Texas who was breeding "twisty cats"? they have shortened or deformed forelimbs (radial hypoplasia), and they sit up on their haunches. she was breeding them on purpose that way. (nothing nice to say at all about her)
    Jacob was rescued from her. He was rejected because he got the most severe form of it, he has no forelimbs at all, just little stumps. But he lives a pretty normal life, he just gets down off the couch backwards.

    Martini has no back foot, it is just a smooth stump ending at the ankle. We got him from a shelter, so they don't really know, but my vet guessed that it was a result of an umbilical cord wraparound, and that he has probably always had a short leg. He also has no idea he is different, and can run as fast as anybody!!!


    GO SHELTER BABIES!!!!

    I have a skinny little cat who is almost 17 - Elvis (Costello - not the King), a lovable golden retriever -Buddy who is 6 and my baby a Sheltie - Benson who is 3 Yes I vacuum often:laugh:
    They are all well loved and taken care of and eventhough they are sometimes a pain in the butt, I wouldn't trade them for the world.

    i have not heard of her! what a FREAK! :noway: awe, i love that he gets off the couch backwards!

    we recently adopted out a kitty we named tipsy. she had a partial amputation due to nerve damage to one of her front paws. for some reason after the surgery, her leg doesnt extend, so its pretty much always at a 90 degree angle. she has no idea though. she plays and uses it just fine. gosh, we have had so many! just thinking about them make me smile!

    LOL! :laugh: looks like a little drama queen!
    my cat group (new beginnings cat rescue, tx) works out of a petsmart. i love that store - they are and have been so great to us. we have been volunteering there since 7/2004 and started our own group in 9/2005 - we kept the adoption center. we are there every day (50+ volunteers) to clean cages, twice a day and every weekend for adoptions. good times! kuddos to you for helping support adoptions at PM!

    We have two English bulldogs, Ozzy and Sharon, which I just love more than people most days, and two cats, Eddie and Pickles, never thought i'd be a cat person, but since we've moved to the country, field mice can be a problem, these guys do nothing but hunt mice! gotta respect em!
