Forest

My story

Forest is a special little guy. He was found alone in a garden with his brother Chaz and immediately we were able to see something was wrong with his back legs. They were very weak and he would drag them behind him. However, despite his disability, he always pushed through and was always the sweetest kitten. We don't think he will ever regain use of his back legs but he does have control over his bladder and bowel movements so he doesn't need any help there, and he's doing well wearing a diaper. He can't use his back legs at all but he scoots around just fine with his front legs and quite quickly too! We haven't been able to work out a litter box that suits him so, for now, he just uses puppy pads. He's a spunky little thing and he loves his brother Chaz who protects him (and also beats him up like a brother would). He loves being held and cuddled and is very adventurous. He doesn't let his disability stop him from doing anything! We would love them to go together but our main priority is finding a home equipped for Forest's needs. He recently experienced a medical emergency and because of that he will need a perineal urethrostomy when he's fully grown. Our vet also believes his balls are retained in his abdomen and would require another surgery to have them removed. He's a strong little guy and he has been through so much recently but has always maintained his cheerful little personality. His adoption fee includes everything involved with getting him to you (vet certificates, airline fee, adoption fee and carrier).

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Forest, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
