Abandoned Paralyzed Kitten Found In Mac and Cheese Box Gets Lego Wheelchair

Last edited Tue May 17, 2016, 12:17 PM - Edit history (1)

An abandoned paralyzed kitten was brought into the Massapequa Pet Vet by a good Samaritan in a macaroni and cheese box, after being found on a street. They named him fittingly, mac and cheese and technicians worked together to create a set of wheels made out of Legos to help the kitten move around. The vet gives him daily physical therapy in a pool and he gets mental exercise thanks to iPad games. Eventually the kitten will be available for adoption but for now he's getting stronger every day.

And every day hundreds of cats (including kittens) that need no extra help are put down. Shelters lack funds to take in more and have trouble getting enough vet support.

1 gets much.

Many get 0.
