They adopted a kitten who needed special care. Now they watch her enjoy life just like other cats, but in her own way.

Botine (which means “boots” in French) arrived at the cat shelter Chatons-Orphelans Montreal with her siblings in search of a better life. Like some of her littermates, she was born with malformed feet.

Both front legs and one hind leg are bent inward. “X-rays showed that her radius was underdeveloped and one of her hind legs was also bent,” the rescue worker said.

From the beginning, Bottin was unapologetic and determined to do everything other cats could do.

Thanks to the nursing home, she quickly came out of her shell and attracted people’s attention. She walked in her own special way and charmed every volunteer and visitor she met.

Bottine is not in pain and moves around easily, using her front legs to pull herself forward.

She enjoys snuggling into her adoptive mother’s neck, napping on her shoulder, and curling up in the hood of her sweatshirt. “She loves spending time with us and having fun.”

“She loves everyone, including humans, other cats, dogs, and rabbits.”

A mix of mischief and love, she enjoys being close to people while embarking on fun adventures with her feline friends.

“As soon as they see us, they run up to us and try to hold us. They follow us everywhere and are not afraid to ask for what they want in a very loud and very adorable way.”

“Bottine is inquisitive and bold. Despite her bent legs, she can climb up on sofas, beds, and cat trees by herself. We have seen her napping on sofa cushions. I see her a lot. She’s very resourceful and there’s no stopping her.”

She used her elbows to support herself and even figured out how to climb stairs. Like other kittens, they approach toys with ferocious energy.

“She has no problem using the low-entry potty tray and pee pads. She really loves life.”

Bottine adapted to his surroundings like a champ. She is never far away from humans and closely monitors their daily activities. Sometimes she perches on the bed like a little otter and takes it all in.

“Every night she climbs into bed and cuddles up to us and cries up a storm. She’s incredibly affectionate and loves being near us all the time.”

Bottine has a heart of gold and shares her love with other animals. She often joins the older cats at the window, where they bask in the warm sun. Her kind and loving personality calms them down and makes them feel truly at home.

She gets along well with humans and other animals, keeping them entertained with her playful antics and playful banter.
