The Mad Catters, a foster home-based animal rescue organization, brought in a young pregnant cat around 5 months ago. The cat was saved just before her kittens were about to be delivered. One of the kittens was born with a rare disease, but she is determined to develop into a robust adult.
The mother cat was able to keep her kittens in a calm and pleasant environment thanks to the kindness and assistance of the shelter’s volunteers. She knew she could count on her new foster family to help her with everything she needed to get ahead.
“She was too young to bear children of her own. Because of her size, age, and nutrition, all but one of her children turned out differently.”
Swan (also known as Panda) the small kitten was developing at a much slower rate than his brothers. Swan was half his own age, but he always ate plush animals.
His sluggish growth was highlighted when his milk teeth failed to erupt weeks after his birth; in addition, his tail was still short, and he was physically smaller than his brothers.
Swan couldn’t keep up with his siblings, who were naughty and playful. The small kid spent the most of his time resting and cuddling with his caregiver.
Swan was the size of a four-year-old cat when he was eight weeks old. His ears were still folded, and his legs were small and stocky.
Swan’s volunteer took him to the vet for a check-up and several tests, hoping to learn more about the cause of his sluggish development.
The following items may be found in the rescue center:
“It was here that little Swan was diagnosed with hypothyroidism, a condition that had retarded his growth and resulted in dwarfism.”
Swan’s health improved quickly after a correct diagnosis and medicine, and the small kitten began to gain weight. The kitten had a voracious appetite and was pretty daring.
Swan had now reached his full size and strength. He was much quicker now, full of enthusiasm, and he wanted to do everything a cat his age would.
