3-Legged Cat Finds Beautiful Match

3-Legged Cat Finds Beautiful Match

A couple in Trabuco Canyon, Calif., has adopted a kitten who recently lost one of her legs, as a pet for their 2-year-old daughter who is missing a left arm.

The three-legged kitten named Holly was adopted by Matthew and Simone Tipton, who have two young children, including 2-year-old Scarlette Tipton, who was born with a rare cancer that ultimately led to her left arm being amputated last year when she was just 10 months old.

Simone Tipton told ABC News today she “immediately saw a special bond between” the three-month-old kitten and little Scarlette when they first drove over two hours to San Jacinto Valley Animal Campus to meet Holly just before Christmas Eve.

“Though our daughter was told she likely wouldn’t be able to crawl, stand or walk, but she figured all of that out herself with the help of a physical therapist and we saw that exact fighting spirit in the cat,” she said. “We brought her home thinking she’d have trouble jumping on the couch and bed, but she’s just jumping around the house like it’s no big deal, climbing around and exploring.”

Pets are great additions to families and to this special little girl, she has found her fighting spirit in her furry companion. Adopt a pet at http://PetFinder.my, and you might just learn something or two from them too.
