A kind-hearted person found a kitten abandoned in the middle of the road. She tried to save the poor tabby cat by waving at it and slowing down oncoming traffic.
The kitten was taken to the veterinarian immediately. After examination, the doctor found that its left hind leg was fractured, so it had to receive treatment for the injury to its front paw.
In addition, knowing that it needed a foster family for later recovery, they sought help from local rescue center personnel. Everyone named the little guy Sloan.
Under the professional treatment of doctors, Sloan gradually cheered up the next day and regained some use of his front paws. He immediately put his newfound strength to good use, attracting the attention of the veterinary staff caring for him.
Its purring motor is constantly running, while simultaneously chirping to attract attention and shaking the head chaotically. Even though he was completely limping on his back legs, Sloan figured out how to use a shallow litter box on his own. What a clever kitten.
It was then arranged to begin its recovery in a comfortable environment and cared for by a dedicated and professional volunteer.
"She definitely impressed us. She has a super sweet voice, the loudest purr, is so bouncy and absolutely stunning...she is absolutely perfect," adopter Kerry shared.
A few weeks later, the kitten was introduced to resident cats Miley (orange) and Pearl (seal dot). These two blind cats were rescued as a pair and found their happy forever home with Kerry and her family.
They take this little newcomer under their wings, as if they know what it needs, maybe a sense of security.
Sloane is encouraged to move around more by observing and imitating his feline friends. The friends taught it how to climb the cat climbing frame and showed it that "despite your disability, there is nothing you can't do."
In the days that followed, it continued to become more flexible and confident, and even though it was physically disabled, it could still climb to the top of the cat climbing frame, and could get down on its own.
Sloan has figured out a good way to run with his nonfunctional leg raised to the side. It seems that he will not let anything slow down his exploration.
The family noticed a breakthrough when his front paws began to regain most of their mobility—Sloan began using his limp hind legs and adding weight. "We didn't expect this breakthrough of improvement, but we couldn't be more excited."
Around that time, Kerry adopted two more blind kittens, one of whom became good friends with Sloan. Amigo, the orange tabby, was immediately smitten with Sloane upon arriving at his new home, and they began hanging out and playing together every day.
"Sloan loves life, loves all his friends including Amigo, and is generally great to get along with and is adorable."
His legs will continue to improve over time and his new family will do everything they can to ensure Sloan's best quality of life. Despite his rocky start, Sloane never stopped trusting people and giving love.
Now, it begins its journey of recovery with caring people and cat friends who understand it.
