My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet our precious little boy, Milkshake.

Milkshake was born with a congenital physical abnormality, causing his back legs to be....upside down! He can't use his back legs for walking. However, he still has feeling in them and is generally unbothered by his physical limitations. He has a strong upper body and runs, climbs, and plays like a normal kitten. Plus you can always see those cute little beans!!

What makes Milkshake truly unique is his fearlessness, a trait he's developed due to his deafness. Unlike other cats who run from the vacuum cleaner, Milkshake likes to chase it! He's happy to sleep through fireworks and isn't startled by loud sounds. While he hasn't met a dog, we think he would adjust well to one and possibly even become playmates with them.

Milkshake first came to us late last winter after being picked up by a good samaritan who found him crossing the street alone and in the rain at night.

He came to us very sick and covered in ringworm, but he has made a full recovery and is ready to find his forever home.

While his legs may look concerning, our vet does not believe there will be any issues as he gets older, and despite everything, he doesn't require any special care. He can use a litter box, get upstairs, and climb cat trees like a normal cat! But you don't have to worry about him getting up on your counters :)

Milkshake is just under a year old and fully grown. He is a tiny cat - partially due to his legs, so he comes in at around 5 lbs and is the size of a teenage kitten! Perfect for small apartments or living spaces ;)

Milkshake is a very social cat who likes to snuggle up to bigger cats (or maybe dogs). When he is alone, he gets concerned and meows loudly. Because of this, he needs a home with at least one other pet who won't mind him following them around.
