    I’m so glad there are rescuers like this woman that help kittens find good homes and even patiently give them physical therapy! The Dodo taught me what Swimmer’s Syndrome is and has done a lot to bring about more awareness of the condition. Inspiring video!

    I love when they're little floof balls and just a few weeks old. When my cat had her kittens they would all fit in my coat pockets when I would go for walks, with the mama cat walking along with me. Then I'd take them out and they'd play on a log or a big pile of sand, then I'd gather them all up and put them back in my pockets and head back home again.

    Kitten Lady also did a video on curing a kitten with swimmers syndrome and I've seen a few others with kittens and puppies.

    Good job keeping the sisters together because I know it isn't easy to keep bonded pairs together. It just goes to show that with a little work that swimmers syndrome can be dealt with without major surgery and other expensive procedures. I know it is a good bit of work but it isn't the end of the world. Nicely done all the way around.

    Seeing the little cat able to overcome her disability and recover, I honestly wonder if I with over 13 years of depression - will one day be able to be free of it and live a happy life.

      Maybe a kitten can help with that(if you are able)? A baby animal's playful antics & unconditional love make life so much better for people with depression and anxiety. A cat's purring has been proven to lower blood pressure!🙂

    • @Ghoster311
      @Ghoster311 Před rokem +13

      I used to have moderate depression issues until I got a kitten and never had issues again. Having something else to focus on instead of my thoughts all the time definitely helped to keep from obsessing over negative thoughts. Plus receiving and giving affection was like getting a regular source of a vitamin you had been badly deficient in. Hope you get over it one day as well.
