Winston's Story

Meet Winston – A Tiny Hero with a Huge Heart<br/><br/>Winston is a handsome boy with a larger-than-life spirit and a story that will tug at your heartstrings. When he was just a tiny baby, he was accidentally closed in a recliner and suffered an injury that left him paralyzed from the waist down. Sadly, he didn’t receive medical care right away—but thanks to a kind-hearted Good Samaritan and our rescue, he’s now safe, loved, and thriving.<br/><br/>Winston may never walk, but he doesn’t let that slow him down. He’s full of playful energy, curiosity, and spunk. He zooms around in his diapers, chases toys, and wrestles with his foster siblings. He’ll need a special kind of home—one that can help him express his bladder every 8-12 hours, assist with bowel care, and keep a close eye out for potential issues like UTIs. Though these care tasks are very important, they don’t actually take up a lot of time. Maybe 15 minutes a day. He also gets bathed every 1-2 weeks.<br/><br/>This is not a typical adoption—Winston will require lifelong special care. But if you’re someone with experience in special needs cats (or someone open to learning), we promise the joy, love, and inspiration Winston brings will be more than worth it.<br/><br/>Winston is beautiful, brave, and bursting with personality. Are you the person who can give this little fighter the incredible life he deserves?
