My name is Chipmunk (Osteochondrodysplasia)!

Meet Chimpmunk, an adorable Scottish Fold kitten who traveled all the way from Kuwait to the U.S. in search of a better life. This little sweetheart is an absolute smooch machine-she'll rub, lick, and roll all over you for endless pets! Chimpmunk is always busy exploring her world, but she'll gladly pause for her favorite Churu treats. With her cute flat face, she makes the most entertaining snorfling and grunting noises that will keep you laughing. Chimpmunk is full of love and curiosity, always ready to charm her way into your heart!

Chipmunk has Osteochondrodysplasia, the Scottish Fold disease. The abnormality that causes their ears to be folded also leads to cartilage issues throughout the body. For Chipmunk it caused short, thick feet and a short tail. She was sent to the US because we have a drug called Solensia that Kuwait does not have. This is a drug she will need likely every month for the rest of her life. It's a shot and will have to be done at a vet office. Typically it costs $60-$100 per month, depending on location. She is also on daily gabapentin for pain management.
