Bella & Chewbacca's Kittens: Mr. Tibits [redux]

Corey says: We were very worried about Orange Kitty's brother Mr. Tibits when he was little. He was born right before the one that didn't make it and he was so small, so he always had special attention paid to him making sure he got food. The rest of the kittens were almost twice his size, so they would always bully him and take his food away. Mr. Tibits wasn't gaining weight like the rest of them, so we would literally hold him and help him eat. Eventually he didn't like to eat without being held!

Once the kittens' eyes started to open, we noticed that only one of Mr. Tibits's eyes was opening and also that he had a really crooked spine. We brought him to the vet and we were all certain there would be only one eye. The vet said that he would probably lead a normal life, but he wouldn't be able to tell until he grew more. That eye eventually opened, and he's never had any issues with his spine. He has grown up into an amazing kitten, he loves to be cuddled and carried everywhere. He moved in with my mom and her kitty, Lulu. Lulu hated him at first but they’re best friends now. He’s extremely clumsy and is always falling over. Despite his curved spine, he moves better than all of the cats. He’s the highest jumper and possibly the fastest cat. I brought Maurice over to visit him a few weeks after giving him to my mom, and Tibits literally pounced on Maurice he was so excited to see him. He was licking and sniffing him all over. He clearly missed his brother!
