Re: Deformed kitten

mods i dont understand how this photo would upset any younger members?

somebody reading could help,this is a bonus is it not?? i thought this forum was for advice and help??

unless the picture is gory/the animal is in pain i see no reason??


the kitten doesnt look bad attal....but ofcourse the vet will be able to tell you quality of life or any health problems and you can go from there, please let us know how you get on.

an adoreable little mite xx

Re: Deformed kitten

It was actually the first photo of him when he was just born that was removed, not the one I posted now.

Re: Deformed kitten

Vet said that it is a developmental problem. the Vet said to give him a chance as long as he is not suffering. He is no suffering at all and is a very happy, lively kitten, I believe if he makes it to adulthood he will have a very good quality of life. Just his size I'm worried about now, but can only do the best I can for him and see what happens.
He is slightly mentally "challenged", he doesn't climb into the litterbox by himself, I have to put him in there to do his business a few times a day, he also doesn't climb up and onto thins like his siblings..
I have grown extremely attached to him and visa versa.
Love him unconditionally!

Re: Deformed kitten

He is a lovely boy, hope he's doing ok? Does he seem to have any physical problems as well as being small or is it just "cosmetic" as someone else said? Has the vet been able to give you any indications of what to expect?

Will you be keeping him or looking for a sensible home for him? Where are you based (in case anyone is interested in giving him a life home)?

He really is gorgeous, bless him

Edit, cross posted. Sounds like he was lucky to be born in your house rather than somewhere else!

Re: Deformed kitten

Oh bless him - he is just "special". He has made it so far so deserves a chance. I hope you can keep him or find him a suitable loving home whatever his long term prognosis. He will definitely bring some sunshine into any owner's heart. Do keep us advised as to his progress.

Re: Deformed kitten

Chewie39, except for his size and being not as "bright" as his siblings, he is fine. We live in a small town in South Africa (Jeffreys Bay), my Vet does not have allot of experience with kitten deformities so can't really tell me what to expect.
He isn't going anywhere! :-) I am definitely keeping him, have grown to attached to him and he to me.

Re: Deformed kitten

Part of me wishes I hadn't looked at the pic (tho' it's not that bad tbh) but most of me is so glad this kitten is being given every chance. A huge to the OP for doing so.
