Shelby was surfing Craigslist one day when she came across an advertisement for two special-needs cats.
She was a sweet lady who had frequently fostered kittens and wondered if she would be the ideal person to take them in and provide the assistance they need.
After making contact via email she received a video showing her how the kittens moved around. Well, that was it, Shelby knew she was the one that could give them a chance at a better life.
When the. kittens arrived at her house, now named Haiku and Sonnet, she could see that their little back legs resembled flippers, but this didn’t stop them from getting around. They managed to tear around the place getting up to all sorts of fun.
Shelby was taken aback by their movement; they didn’t appear to know that their legs didn’t work correctly, and they didn’t realize they were different from other kittens.
She knew they had fully captured her heart because of their zeal for life and constant pranks.
Following a trip to the veterinarian, she realized that they both needed emergency surgery in order to survive.
Their rear legs’ joints were malformed, and their bones were unfinished. It would be a lengthy process, and they were fortunate to have each other, as well as Shelby.
These delightful kittens then took Shelby’s breath away as she watched them improve and saw the way that they helped each other grow up strong.
Watch the video to see their progress:
