>>I have what I consider a special kitty. Henry looks like a Himalayan, but I guess something got into the breed and the litter was given away. He was the 'runt'. As he grew, his upper 'arms' didn't. The vet called it hydracondria/something like that. Hank can't jump like a regular cat. He's low to the ground and 'slopes'. At 4 and 1/2 he just hit 8 lbs. The rest of him is in proportion. He 'stands' on his hind legs and appears to be begging because his front paws are so short. He's Mr. finicky. My husband made me kitty stairs for him so that he can get up and look out the window like the big guys!



That's so wonderful that he's gotten a loving home. It's seems like alot of people can 'look past' certain special needs but not others if it makes the cat look different. Hurray, for your hubby!! What a sweet thought.-- Jennifer
