Batman kitty rescue by Anonymous Los Angeles, CA

Batman was born to a feral mommy in Mississippi. The back half of his body wasn't able to fully develop in utero which led to him having a little nub of a tail, a hooked front paw, a back leg where the bones weren't connected, and the other back leg with a bone shaped like a boomerang. Because of this disability, he had a hard time with going potty on his own and keeping up with his siblings, but he never stopped trying.

His human mommy loved him very much, but unfortunately could not have pets in her home due to rental restrictions. Since the area she lived in had wild dogs roaming regularly, she knew it wasn't a safe place for little Batman. Because of this, she went to the internet to seek a home for this sweet kitty. I was lucky enough to see his picture on the internet and immediately contacted his mommy. Once I found out she lived in Mississippi, I became discouraged as I live in California and was not sure how I could adopt this little love without spending a whole lot of money. I told her to continue looking for a home for him closer to her, and if she couldn't, I would find a way to bring him to me.

Fast forward a few months, and she was still unable to find him a home. I began to get quotes from every animal transport company that Google could direct me to, and finally found one with a price I could afford that would still be able to give Batman the attention he deserved during the journey. In Feb 2014, I was finally able to hold Batman in my arms when the transport company brought him to my door. Because of his disability, there were a few accidents that required bath times (which he HATED), but he has since adapted and is my favorite cuddle buddy. I love him more and more every day and couldn't have asked for a better kitty.
