Rescuer Found Cat Walking On Her Hind Legs. Then She Started Hopping To Be Rescued

Roo’s front legs are bent, so she gets around by walking on her hind legs. Roo was found in a cat colony. When some kind people visit the cat colony each day to give the cats food, shelter, and water. Ultimately, they want all the cats to find loving homes too. But, with feral cats, it is hard to earn their trust.

Kim Womack is one of the people working hard to care for the cat colony. She said that Roo has a friend, who they have named Marigold. Kim thinks that Roo and Marigold should be adopted together.

At the vet, an X-ray showed that Roo is missing her radius bone in her right leg and the ulna in her left leg is bent and thickened – these are congenital deformities.
