A kitten with a paralyzed rear limb has been in need of assistance, and Jessica Roof, the organization’s creator, has been called. Instead than moving aside, the lady carried the baby to safety.
The kitten was in a terrible condition when it arrived: it was skin and bones, listless, malnourished, and coated with fleas. He dragged his torso and legs around the floor while using only his front paws, making it clear that the lower half of his body was devoid of sensation.

The kitten was in a terrible condition when it arrived: it was skin and bones, listless, malnourished, and coated with fleas. He dragged his torso and legs around the floor while using only his front paws, making it clear that the lower half of his body was devoid of sensation.
The kitten had no sensation from the waist to the tip of the tail, according to the examination’s veterinarian.
In Mohan, the first and second lumbar vertebrae are compressed. It seems to be the result of a major fall, Courtney continues. “Acupuncture helps to enhance blood circulation and reduce swelling, so we believe it will aid Mohan’s recovery.”
Mohan was being treated for a possible infection while he continued physical therapy (including hydrotherapy) at home. “We have very high hopes for this kid, he is a fighter and wants to be on the move all the time.”
The striped boy is eager to stand and walk like all cats, and nothing can stop him from enjoying life.
“He has such a spark! He is the most sassy boy who is constantly trying to use his legs and doesn’t let anything get in his way.”
“He will always find a way to get where he needs to go. He seems to be feeling better every day in his lower body thanks to daily home therapy. The movement of his legs now is something incredible.”
Just a couple of weeks ago, Mohan dragged his hind limbs, and now he balances masterfully on all four – this is a breakthrough. His energy increased, his mobility improved, and his character emerged.
He likes to grab everything that moves and climb on everything he can reach.
“Baby Mohan has a huge will and determination to use his paws to walk,” Kourtney shares.
“I have already seen him try to jump forward, and he balances on all four legs for a few seconds at a time. I seem to be seeing improvements every minute.”
Yesterday, Mohan received his first acupuncture treatment at the vet. He played around the room while running around and gave the employees several hugs.
“He was a bold man. He was already dozing off in the car when I picked him up in the late afternoon.
The strong-willed kitten never ceases to amaze his people as he continues to live life to its fullest and moves steadily towards walking on his own feet.
