Bobby

Bobby says: "Hi, I'm Bobby! I was found in a box on the side of the road by a nice family. I was so tiny, they didn't know what to do with me. Plus they saw that my back legs didn't quite work right and that I was super wobbly. They brought me to my foster mom and dad and they warmed me up and gave me some food -- I was so HUNGRY! I was only 9 oz and I should have been more like 1 lb. It turned out that I had a tapeworm. Once that awful tapeworm was gone, I was all better and gained weight super fast. As I grew and got stronger, I still wobbled a lot and I walked sideways with a shimmy...and I fell over a lot. It never bothered me, I was used to it, but my foster mom wanted to make sure I wasn't in pain. The nice veterinarian said that I probably was knocked by a car, not run over, but maybe rolled. Nothing was broken, but since I was so little that probably was why I was a little bad with coordination. It didn't hold me back -- I played like a normal kitten and pounced on the other kitties in the house. The other kitties in the house liked me and I liked them…they went easy on me with play because they could tell my coordination wasn't great. My foster mom said I was a total love bug...I liked that. I always loved kisses and hugs and I purred a lot of love back. When I was all better and a big boy, my foster mom took me back to the shelter and I got adopted and now I live in a wonderful forever home." >^.^
