"Less Adoptable" Adoption Story | Scooter

Adopt a Less Adoptable Pet Week is September 17-25.  This "less adoptable" adoption story comes to us from Paige J. I adopted my handicapped cat Scooter from Furkids 5½ years ago. I was a volunteer there, and I saw this new little intake kitten that was appropriately named Scooter. She was born with a hip and knee on her back left leg but no ankle or foot. On her back right leg she has a hip, knee, and ankle, but no foot or toes. Even her tail isn’t fully formed. She has always been able to get around like a “normal” cat.  She jumps off of furniture and can even jump up onto low surfaces. She needs a low-opening cat box and low scratching surfaces and has to be put on the bed at night, but other than that she is the most loving of the 3 cats I have. She licks my nose and wags her tail like a dog.  She even will reach up with both front paws and put them on my face and licks my chin. I love my Scooter and am so glad that I adopted her.  Even though I have to do a little extra for her, she returns the favor with lots of extra love for me. Thank you, Paige, for adopting a special needs kitty from Furkids and for sharing your story leading up to Adopt A Less Adoptable Pet Week.  We appreciate it!  Your little Scooter is a very beautiful girl.
