The two kittens with genetic bone problems have been making fantastic progress under the care of Harrogate Cat Rescue, following the appeal to help meet ongoing vet expenses.
Noir and Neve were born with missing bones in their front legs, Noir in two legs and Neve in one.
They’ve since undergone intensive treatment with Swift Referrals veterinary service in Wetherby and are going from strength to strength under the care of Rhys Treharne – they’re now around 11-weeks-old.
Both kittens have been wearing leg splints but are having a two-week break to see how they get on.
Celia Dakin, lead volunteer at Harrogate Cat Rescue, said that the kittens were tearing about, doing all the things that kittens enjoy.
Celia said:
It’s probable that Noir will require surgery when he’s about six-months -old to try to straighten his legs. For Neve it’s more of a wait and see time, as in general, she uses both of her legs to run about.
The charity is very grateful for the ongoing support as the duo’s future treatment will continue to be expensive.
