My story

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


DOB: 5/99



Julieanne is an awesome cat.



Born to a feral mom on the fringe of town, she had always lived outside, too. But she shared her mother's territory and finally (as an older kitten) ventured across the road and met one of the neighbors famous for feeding strays.



The neighbor, Dorothy, was appalled to discover that somehow, Julieanne had lost both her hind feet; one just below the stifle (knee) and the other, mid-femur (mid-thigh.)



Dorothy continued to keep an eye on Julieanne. It wasn't too hard since the small cat's gait was so unusual. She used her stumps interchangeably, as the ends would get abraded.



When Julieanne had a litter of five kittens in July, 2000, she moved them onto Dorothy's property. And finally, after spending weeks getting Julieanne to trust her more, Dorothy was able to capture Julieanne in a crate.



After reading the X-rays of Julieanne's hind quarters, we've concluded that her disability is due to trauma rather than a birth defect.



This awesome cat remains in fostercare. Her mobility and agility are astounding and word has it she easily out-runs her caregiver, even on stairs!



Julieanne's five well-socialized kittens (Cookie, Danny Boy, Gracie, Sugar, and Sweetie) have already found new homes. Now that Julieanne's family is grown, she has more time to devote to her social life. Julieanne probably would not be comfortable as an only cat.



Julieanne likes: being talked to; being petted; the comfort of snuggling with friends.



She dislikes: quick hand movements; loud noises.



Julieanne is way shy. Maintaining eye contact is still difficult for her. But she has plenty of feline friends and plays well with others. Her urinary litter box habits are fine, but she often poops outside the box.
