His hind legs are bent and twisted. However, he has the use of his hind legs down to the "knees." From the knees to the ankles just dangles, and are rotated so the pads are facing up.
He has control of his bowels and bladder, digs a little hole and squats over it. He gets around pretty well, looks like a little hop-toad flying down the driveway at feeding time.
The vet says it is genetic, and that his spine is probably involved too. His tail is very crooked, Dr. says he has half-vertebra in his tail instead of intact ones.
I had him tested, and he is FeLV and FIV negative. I will have him neutered and get him his shots.
I can't see him surviving outside and I can't bring him in. My house has a step up or down into every single room on the ground floor, and he wouldn't be able to get on top of the freezer where my cats get fed so the dogs can't reach it. And I don't think he'd survive my yearling kitten's idea of play.
I'm seeking a furever home for him before it gets too cold. If I can't find one, I'm going to have to have him PTS before snow arrives. Anyone want to volunteer? He'd be an ideal pet for an older person who doesn't want to deal with the kind of trouble that a kitten can get in. I can almost promise you that he won't be climbing your curtains!
