Acorn the little kitty
Aimee from @catz4life
Just recently, there was a tiny kitten who was rushed to a vet clinic for emergency care. A kind-hearted person found her in a parking lot, injured and in need of help.
According to her medical records, it seems that she accidentally got herself onto a car carrier and traveled to another state. “After X-rays, it was determined that her femur was broken, and amputation was the best option,” Aimee, who works with Be Their Voice Animal Rescue, told Love Meow.
Before the surgery, the staff made sure to spend some quality time with the kitten, who showed her appreciation with lots of cuddles and purrs.
She would wiggle her toes playfully whenever she was in the presence of the staff at the veterinary clinic. Aimee, known as @_catz4life_, shared the story of Acorn, a tiny feline fighter who was discovered on a Tuesday and underwent surgery just two days later. The vet clinic made sure to keep Aimee informed at every stage of the process. Acorn’s sweet nature captured the hearts of everyone involved, with updates describing her as a purring, kneading little bundle of joy. This courageous two-pound kitty named Acorn quickly became the center of attention and affection for all who met her.
Aimee, known online as @_catz4life_, welcomed Acorn into her home with open arms while the kitten sported an e-collar. Acorn quickly found comfort in Aimee’s care, where she had a cozy spot to relax and plenty of food to munch on throughout the day. Despite being just eight weeks old, Acorn couldn’t resist her natural kitten instincts. Aimee would occasionally let her have some supervised playtime without the e-collar, allowing her to be a playful kitten once again.
Watching Acorn using her paws to knead while she ate, Aimee was amazed at how quickly the kitten had adapted to life with only three legs. Despite the recent surgery, Acorn was full of energy, playful, sweet, and loving. It was hard to believe she had just undergone a major operation, as she seemed so joyful and carefree.
Acorn is absolutely smitten with her collection of ball toys. Aimee, under the handle @_catz4life_, shared how Acorn bravely accepted her medications without complaints. She also didn’t mind wearing her cone or going back to her cozy enclosure for some rest. Whenever Acorn was given the opportunity for playtime and cuddles, she turned into a happy and energetic little kitten, purring and kneading her paws with pure contentment.
She has adapted well to the challenge of getting around with just three legs. Aimee, also known as @_catz4life_, is full of energy when she sees a ball. She races towards it and starts kicking it with her one remaining hind leg. It’s clear that nothing will stop her from having fun and enjoying life to the fullest.
Aimee, also known as @_catz4life_, shared that Acorn had completed her recovery period and was finally free from her cone and stitches after two weeks of TLC. With a renewed sense of curiosity and playfulness, Acorn was eager to explore the world around her.
Describing Acorn as having a gentle nature, Aimee expressed how much the kitten enjoyed being cuddled and watching the world go by from the window while purring and kneading her paws.
