New Rescue Cat Zoe Available for Adoption!

New Arrivals are in today including Zoe, a black and white rescue kitten, just one of the latest rescued felines that is ready for their forever homes! Zoe was born with a birth defect where the bones did not develop properly or not at all which resulted in a leg deformity.

Rescued Cat Zoe is now available.

When this special needs kitten was brought to our rescue, we were told that she had contracted tendons in both front paws and that while the right paw corrected itself, the left paw was more severe.



Unfortunately the people who had Zoe and her kitten siblings from their unspayed cat did not get Zoe to a veterinarian to examine the paw, so we took her in for our vet to investigate the supposed contracted tendon in the front leg.

We wanted to make sure that she received the medical attention necessary in case this was an easily correctable problem to make sure that life wouldn't be more difficult and painful for Zoe than needed to be.

We were hoping to get the paw in the correct position, but turns out it is much more than a contracted tendon.



The x-rays show that she is missing the radial bone in her lower left front leg along with her ankle and elbow being luxated.


These are all birth defects and cannot be fixed surgically.



The foot does not slow Zoe down that much, and long as she gets around ok (which she does), our vet recommended leaving it be as long as it doesn't cause her difficulty.

Zoe is a darling kitten and will easily fall asleep in your lap as you pet her.

This special kitten will offer a lifetime of loyalty to anyone dedicated person who will TRULY PROVIDE EXCELLENT CARE for her and will make a lifelong commitment to keeping her safe, well-cared for and loved.



Zoe's estimated D.O.B. is 9/15/10
