Braille – Special Needs
Braille is an adorable 12 week old kitten who was born blind. He was going to be put down but GVAC took him in instead and got him the vet care he needed. We could not be more thrilled that he got this second chance at life. His lack of sight doesn’t slow him down. Once he’s explored the room he’s in, he’s just as playful and curious as any other kitten. He’s smart, always hits the litter box and is incredibly affectionate. He even follows his foster parents around the house and jumps up onto the couch.
Braille can be a noisy breather at times, part of which may be damage from a upper respiratory infection at birth and part of which may be behavioural, as he compensates for his lack of vision with sound. His veterinarian does not anticipate any long term problems relating to this. His eyes are currently stable and healthy, but should they need to be removed in the future GVAC will pay for the surgery.
Braille is an extraordinary kitten who steals the hearts of everyone he meets. He loves cuddling and playing with people and cat-friendly dogs – but he doesn’t like other cats. He’d do best as the only cat in a household without small children, where he can get lots of attention and love.
Braille has received his shots and tested negative for FIV and FeLV. If you’re interested in adopting this very special boy, please email an application to info@animalcrusaders.ca
