YAY!!! Another special needs fanatic! My name's Jan, and I'm owned by many rescued special needs kitties, most of which are in my siggy below. Thumbelina is also special needs, and quite a miracle kitty! She was born with moderate radial hypoplasia (bent front legs) a severe heart murmer, megaesophagus, and most likely a liver shunt due to her diminutive size, and the fact her tongue sticks out constantly. She's about 7 years old now, and still going strong. I have several born with parts of their legs missing (Gabriel is two legged, having stumps for hind legs)...he's doing wonderful too. Hope to hear lots more about your furfamily! And anxiously awaiting pictures.
