Kittens Guided to the Front Yard by a Cat, One Struggling to Walk Receives Assistance to Explore and Play Alongside His Sibling.
The hobbles kept his hind legs at a more appropriate distance, training him to walk and not “swim”.
His legs were wrapped to help them into the correct position
His splints forced his front legs into a more anatomically correct position which allows him to walk and run on his feet. Milton adjusted quickly to being wrapped and took it all in stride.
Slowly but surely, he started to stand on his paws with the wraps on, as his legs became straighter and stronger.
Milton had splints on his front legs and hobbles on his back legs
After three weeks of treatment, Milton graduated from the wraps and turned into an unbridled ball of energy, tackling toys with all fours. “His back legs were properly under him and his front limbs straightened out nicely,” Jennifer shared.
“He’s walking on his paws (instead of the backs of his paws). He’s not swimming anymore and gets around fairly normally.”
Milton is now wrap-free, and can walk around on all four feet
Throughout their foster journey, the two kittens have never been apart. Nash has been a source of comfort and strength for his brother, keeping him company at all times.
They complement each other perfectly, like partners in mischief.
Milton and Nash share an adorable bond
“Milton and Nash are the sweetest duo. They love to wrestle with each other, and when they’re sleepy, they snuggle up together and nurse the side of their bed,” Jennifer told Love Meow.
“They’re the most perfect boys and deserve the most perfect forever family.”
