      I would drive my cat there no matter how many hours it takes. If you love your cat unconditionally, then you'll be prepared to drive any distance to get your cat well again:) Take snacks for yourself and the cat if it's going to be a long journey. Don't forget the drinks, too ;)

      What I am noticing on TH-cam, Catkin, is that there’s a LOT of opportunists filming stray cats, feral cats, community cats, etc. that are in dire situations - and the people don’t actually help them, other than throwing down some kibble on the ground, then filming for TH-cam footage. (Ex: World of Cats on YT) These crappy jerks around the world just exploit stray cats, and other wild animals too.
      My sincere praise and compliments to Walter, on this channel for his loving care, and spaying and neutering of these cats... Cats suffer when they overpopulate.

But then, my nephew gave me my second best friend..... a tiny little butterscotch tiger named "Pumpkin", We call him "Poly-Pumpkin" because he has 24 toes. He saved my heart from totally breaking😻, and now I like to think that while I have her Pumpkin down here, she has my "Smokey" up there.😇😻

    Oh, I wasn't sure if you lived in Turkey or not. Istanbul - cat heaven where cats are kings or princess! I have been to Turkey several times , traveled south to Kaz, Antalya & back to Istanbul. It's one of my stopover cities on long flights home. I always loved how cats are part of the population and are considered as respected beings- as they should be. You certainly have a cat soul and know exactly what to give them. 💙

    We rescued an orphan feral kitten in very bad shape. She is now 4 years old, has very poor vision, a deformed pelvis, and is brain damaged. She doesn't jump and can't bunny kick, so we have a step stool so she can climb up and sit with us. We never move anything in her usual path so she runs and plays, and she goes crazy happy for toys which make noise, like the little plastic balls with a bell inside. She runs a little funny due to her pelvis but she can still move pretty fast! Visitors can't believe she's nearly blind. Cats can adapt to almost anything, just like The Mom Cat adapted to her injured leg. Walter, you are my hero!

    Our dear cat Fluff who was a stray was limping on occasion and the vet did x-rays even though he was a young boy. Surprisingly he had broken hips, right at the neck of the joints. They had made a false joint and this was like a new painful hip on each side. He did surgery to remove the ball on each side each side which makes it act like a shoulder action. You should have seen Fluff run after he recovered! We called him the Gray Arrow! Looking at Mom Cat she is happy and playing now. You watch over her and if she needs surgery you will get it for her. All your kitties are like royalty.

    My Callie looks just like Mom Cat. We call her mother cat, as she moved in from next door and immediately got pregnant by our old black tom-cat (too old to be neutered but apparantly not THAT old...) Callie had 3 kittens which we kept. Then about 5 years ago, Callie fell off the roof and badly broke her left rear leg. We took her to our vet who was very experienced and nearing retirement. He did a great job of amputating her leg right up against the hip. Callie is now a happy tri-pawed demon, who races everywhere. We also have a ladder outside the front for her. :)

Finally, the sweetest, kindest vet told me she would live a full life with 3 legs and climb trees even. Well she ended up being the fastest baddest cat in the neighborhood with her 3 legs. We had to put her down last year as she was in kidney failure but what a tough cookie kitty was.

      Please do not sincerely wish ill against this poor little innocent cat. Amputate?? That's sad. that's sick to think it's normal to write that here. The way the retards behave toward these easy-going lively beauties is the reason your sociopathic vet (most of them are) amputates cats.

    • @mejuliie
      @mejuliie 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @@j.maginnenu6291 For one, this is not about the Mama cat in the video. The OP just shared a story about her cat. As for the Mama cat - she doesn't need an amputation as the leg is not getting in her way. BUT she does not really use her injured leg as much as you might want to think. While she uses the leg to sometimes balance a bit, she otherwise moves (also running) like a three-legged cat would. You also shouldn't forget, that she needs pain medication to use the leg as little as she does.
      But you clearly know absolutely nothing about cats, and their health. Amputation (like with people), is a last resort (- that is why Mama cat still has her leg). It is cruel - and in your words "retarded" - to ignore the reality of cats needing medical care. It is "sociopathic" to not amputate, when necessary, and let the animal suffer.
