Cat with rare disease uses wheels to take first steps
Thumper was abandoned in a backyard baby still in California, but fortunately managed to be rescued in time by PACT â€" People and Cats Together. Was different from the other kittens because he couldn't walk, not even remain standing. The hind legs were not strong enough to withstand its weight and shifted himself dragging the body. But thanks to an engine with wheels, Thumper might take its first steps.When the PACT took him to the vet, she was diagnosed with a rare neurological disease and no cure. No one knew if the animal could ever come out and if it had not been rescued by the non-profit organization, probably never would have survived on his own.The PACT brought immediate efforts in the search for solutions for the rehabilitation of Thumper and eventually come up with the idea of creating a special mobility aid system that helped strengthen the legs of the animal. Some people were sceptical about the recovery by this route, but the truth is that the mechanism enabled him to walk.Thumper began to walk faster, day by day, and his legs were gaining strength. With the help of simple locomotion system, the cat managed to even learn how to run. After two weeks of treatment, Thumper already showed his potential, walking as if determined always had. And soon dropped the "training wheels" for going out on your own, to everyone's surprise.Today, nobody stops â€" flying solo and plays with the other cats, and do imagine the limitations that previously depended. Run, don't seem to get tired and became an inspiration.The Huffington Post advances the little Thumper is still waiting for adoption, so you can run and grow healthily in a safe place, as it deserves.
