A Long Journey for a Little Kitty

Ninja has had quite the journey on her way to finding her forever home. She came to Cat Depot as a scared and starving little kitten after being rescued by two very kind volunteers (a mom and her son). They had to coax her out from under a stove before bringing her to safety.

While being examined at Cat Depot, the vet techs realized that her left front and rear legs were broken. Ninja was immediately brought to an emergency clinic to have both legs put in casts.

Ninja adjusted to the casts very quickly. They didn't slow her down one bit. In fact, upon recently having her casts removed, Ninja refused to walk on her own legs at first. It must have seemed strange to her to walk on her own legs after having grown up with the overwhelming casts as part of her body. 

But once again, she adjusted quickly and now she is running around and playing with the rest of the kittens. And she is finally ready for her journey to forever home to be complete.
