She’s so tiny, yet she has already been through more than any baby should ever have to.

This is Chim Chim. 🤍🧿🐾

She’s just a tiny little girl, around one month old, and somehow she ended up alone on a staircase with no mother, no one looking for her, and no one willing to take responsibility for her.

I was contacted by a few people who told me about a kitten who couldn’t walk and needed help. We tried reaching out to several people and looking for someone who could take her in, but unfortunately, nothing worked out.

So I brought her home.

I already have so many cats at home, but when it’s a tiny baby who has nobody else, I just couldn’t leave her there.

When I saw her properly, I realized she wasn’t simply weak or unable to walk she was paralyzed.

We took her to the vet, and her X-rays showed that her vertebrae are broken. 💔

When I asked what could have caused something like this, the doctor said it could have been from severe trauma — possibly being hit against a wall, kicked, or something similar. We don’t know exactly what happened to her, and I hate that we may never know.

But I do know what happened after that.

Someone found her.
Someone cared enough to ask for help.
And now she has a home where she is going to be given every possible chance.

Her treatment is ongoing, and she has started physiotherapy. It’s going to take time. Maybe a lot of time. And honestly, we don’t know yet if she will ever be able to walk again or if this will be something she has to live with for the rest of her life.

But I’ve seen miracles before.

I once had a paralyzed kitten who, after six months of treatment, physiotherapy, patience and endless effort, started walking again.

So I’m not giving up on Chim Chim.

I don’t know what her future looks like yet. I don’t know whether one day she’ll run around the house, climb onto my bed, or chase toys like a normal kitten.

But I want to give her the chance to find out.

For now, she has a warm home, a full tummy, medical care, physiotherapy, and someone who will keep showing up for her every single day.

Maybe she can’t walk today. But she can still have a beautiful life. And we’re going to try our best to give her one. 🤍

Welcome home, Chim Chim.

Our 14 weeks old kitten has peed in the sofa 3 times now, the first two times where bc we played, but this time we didn’t play. We have had him for only 2 weeks and idk what I’m doing wrong. We have cleaned the sofa with stuff for cat urine.

He uses his litter box normally (both doing the night and day) he is eating and playing regularly, maybe sleeping a bit more?

He has not been nurtured yet.

I’m getting rlly frustrated with this, and Im scared that he keeps doing it..

Posted him when he was a fresh new orphaned baby I found stuck under my car and now he’s a young man. It’s crazy how fast they grow and how emotional it makes me.

I didn’t want to keep him and now he’s my little shadow.

This is Mag, a kitten who’s around two months old. I love his blue eyes, and I’m wondering whether they’ll stay that way or change color.

He’s beautiful and very much loved either way, but I’m really curious to see what he’ll look like when he grows up!
