Hello fellow cat parents!
My name is Amy, I am a hairdresser and I loooove animals ! I am saving animals and am volunteering at the local killshelter to help those dogs find their forever homes! I recently brought home one from the killshelter cuz he was very sick and close to being killed. He is now a happy boy!
I adopted my little Luke ( Mr.Catto) little more than a year ago ! He was a stray cat and was found hit by a tram.
It is a miracle that he stayed alive! He is a literal survivor and warrior ! Had to amputate both of his front legs, but he is very cute! So we named him Luke.
I am very obsessed with my pets. I want them happy, healthy and with a good life so I spend plenty of time researching for good foods,supplements, rushing to the vet instantly I see there's something wrong. They are my everything.
So Luke is a very happy cat now! We love him a lot, he's a sweetheart. He is also my first fully indoor cat since I'm an adult. My grandparents had many indoor cats and dogs when I was a kid tho!
Please be patient with me, I am still learning and a quite new cat mom ! :sunshine:

thank you!! I always try my best to help animals, no matter what type of animal it is and am studying now to become a vet assistant !
He had his front legs amputated, one totally unfortunately :( that was already healed when I adopted him, and the other one was amputated right then,like approx. half of the leg. So he does have there a little leg, it is just way shorter than it normally would be ! He is able to move around,jump,run,play. We did have a prosthetic leg for that one short leg, but he did not get used to it.
