Marilena says: When our rescue group in took in Oscar, he came with three siblings, two sisters and one brother. They were all so weak and so hungry. His sister Abigail is a diva, haha. Unfortunately she had a disabled paw that had to be amputated. But she's doing very well now. The lack of a leg doesn't make any difference for her...she runs and plays and fights with her friends when they steal her mousy. She meows a lot demanding attention all the time, is very friendly with everyone (dogs included) and loves to cuddle and purrs a lot! Absolutely delicious. And she has already been adopted! Oscar's other sister, Isadora, never sat still so there is only one photo of her, but happily she has already been adopted too!

Our group has been rescuing street cats in Campinas, São Paulo, Brazil, for 11 years now. It's a small group and we have a very strict health protocol, our cats are adopted only after being neutered/spayed, vaccinated, dewormed, and microchipped. We don't have a shelter -- we keep a very small number of cats at a time, and they stay either at a vet clinic or at foster homes once they're ready for adoption.

What a little cutie! Sad she had to have the amputation but good to hear she got adopted anyway. She is gorgeous and I thank you for being one of the people who cares enough to help unwanted animals. Abigail is very lucky!

You and your organization are amazing. You are an incredible person; I am speechless to think of the lives you have saved and the misery you have prevented. There is nothing so sad as a three legged kitten; so wonderful that someone chose her and gave her a wonderful life. She is gorgeous. What a wonderful story.

Abigail is adorable, and it's good to know she's already found her furever home, and that her sister also has. You do wonderful work with these kitties! I hope Oscar and his brother are adopted soon, too!

I just watched the videos - makes my heart swell with joy that she is still such a happy, playful (and adopted!) kitty despite needing her leg amputated. What a little warrior! :)

Abigail is truly a litle Princess in her Princess collar. Poor little girl. You can hardly tell that her paw was amputated. I am so glad that she got adopted as she sure had a rough start in her young life. Once again, thanks for all you do for the stray cats.

So how many channels can she get with that thing?

We used to have a white cat many years ago who got his back foot under the fan belt in my husband's pickup. His foot was held on by skin, and my husband used his jackknife to cut the skin and free our cat from his fanbelt. Strangely enough, that cat still loved him after that. She looks like an adorable kitten!

She is going to get very big in the chest area. I had a cat who was a back leg amputee and she got aroun just fine. You didn't even know she had 3 legs. You did a great job rescuing her.
