I'm a polydactyl tabby boy born May 20th 2005. My birth mommy was a feral kitty that got spade and returned to the wilds of West Chester after my brother, Kitsune, and I were weened. We had a sister, but she didn't make it. When I was 4 months old a wonderful girl came along and adopted me when I was very sick with a little kitty cold. A few weeks later she decided I was lonely and went back and adopted my brother. I was so happy to be back with him. Now we all live together very happily in a house in Chester Springs.
So, I'm a one year old kitten with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. It's a genetic disorder that affects my heart. Basically the muscles on the left side of my heart are too thick, so it doesn't fill properly with blood. That means not as much blood pumps through with each beat, so it has to beat faster to keep my organs properly supplied with oxygen.
Unfortunately my condition is fatal, and I will probably leave the world sooner than I'm ready. But my mommy loves me and is trying to give me the best that she can while I'm here.
