Dwarf Cat Walks Up Tiny Steps And Makes The Whole Garden Smile | Cuddle Buddies 

I would of still adopt a dwarf cat if one of them was available and needed a home. Especially if it's a tuxedo or black cat. Those two are my all time favorites. So glad Fig has such a wonderful family that loves her and cherishes her.

I also have a dwarf cat. I found her on a cold rainy night alongside the road, wet and unable to walk. I think her mom abandoned her. She was tiny so I put her in my pocket and she slept all night while I worked. On the way home I bought infant formula (people) I had to force feed her with an eyedropper for a couple weeks. Fast forward 5 years. She happy and healthy, about 1/3rd the size of a typical cat. She's feisty and doesn't take any crap from the normal cats. She's my special buddy, she prefers me over anyone, probably because my scent is comforting after spending a night in my pocket. Her name is baby because she's forever a little kitten.

@@TheBandit7613 What a wonderful story and you're also wonderful. My "Baby" will be 17 years of age on March 1, 2024! Like you, I found her in a cold, pouring rain under a pile of trash (some people can be so cruel)! Take care of your Baby...she obviously loves you very much!!! ❤❤❤❤😻😻😻

@@usmale49 Thank you. She's a pleasure to be around. It's funny to watch her hiss (she has a menacing hiss) if another cat moves in on her treats. She goes to the vet twice a year for check ups and teeth cleaning. The vet says she's very healthy and thinks her lifespan will be normal. May your Baby have MANY more birthdays!

@@TheBandit7613 Oh thank you so very much. I, too, hope Baby has many more HAPPY BIRTHDAYS. She will be getting a few extra "nom noms" on her special day! I just love my "Baby Girl' so much and of course she has her very special spot on my bed!!!

I want to say the ability to be so caring and understanding and loving comes at the price for wuch horribleness and suffering. BUT that always feels wrong. Like I want to burn out the ability to be cruel for humans level of how wrong and unbalanced it is. We just have to fight to protect the ones that can't. Giving of ourselves to support the ones that are and helping shelter them from the wicked winds and grievous glares from the muck the worst of humanity thrives in.

It is easy to commit to constant altruistic acts when one only has to contend with first world problems. I do not deny that there are truly horrible people out there, but do not conflate them with those whom simply are not currently capable of taking on such tasks without a noteworthy hindrance to their own livelihoods.

There's more good in the world than you see because the algorithm is designed to show you what makes the platform the most money. Hate, anger, and outrage sell best.

@@halo3odst I don't think that people in rich countries are kinder than people in poor countries or vice versa. You have good people in both and very unfortunately horrible ones in both as well

@Jay W You appear to have misunderstood my point. If one does not have many issues in their life then it is easy to take on the issues of others. If one has many issues in their life then it is inadvisable to put one’s self further out there to fix or mitigate the problems of others. This may be misconstrued by the POV of one on the outside of the situation as the person in the second example being heartless when in fact they are not but simply cannot afford altruism. Looking out for one’s self first doesn't mean that somebody is selfish and at times may be the best course of action in a tough situation. There is a reason why flight attendants instruct passengers to put on their own oxygen mask first before attempting to help others around them do so.

Methinks the owners are the lucky ones

Word!👍🏼

Just came in to comments to say the same thing.

Yeah. I hate that people deliberately breed "novelty" pets for some idea of cuteness, with disabling physical characteristics. All said though, I'm so glad to see this little guy being cared for and treasured.

True. They are cute, but it is clearly gimmick breeding; to put a title to it. And they are somewhat debilitated for it.

Actually that’s one of the greatest misquotes of all time. The real quote is “One small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind.”

What a pert name for a pert little kitty!😄

This poor animal is struggling and suffering. It's not a cat. It's very sad.

@@MrGriff305 calm down bud she’s okay lmao

@@MrGriff305 would ya say the same thing about humans with dwarfism? that they arent human just sad suffering things? cuz its the same thing bro.

@@Kris-wo4pj Interesting. Have we bred or biologically engineered people with extremely short arms and legs? Do you think we should?

⁠​⁠@@MrGriff305 While I won’t deny, that humans have done these things to cats and other animals (some still do and I, too, condemn these actions), according to the video, she wasn’t bred or engineered to be that small. At least we can be sure about that, if she was born at the adoption center, since they haven’t seen a cat with dwarfism before. Which brings me to my next point: feline dwarfism is a rare genetic mutation (or more like multiple mutations), that cause a disproportionate body and other health concerns. While rare and cats having it needing special care, it is no different than humans who were born with an extra finger, a missing toe, themselves being born with dwarfism or other things like that. Sometimes big and/or small mutations happen, no matter how healthy or unhealthy the parents of a living being are. That doesn’t automatically mean said living being would be suffering or be unhappy. And that cat is clearly happy and while having a bit more difficulty than a completely healthy cat, she isn’t suffering. She is walking around, exploring her surroundings, jumping on things, she talks, she plays and is completely relaxed when petted. Her whole body language in the video screams comfortable, happy cat. So, while I wouldn’t be happy, if the owner was trying to breed her with other cats to keep these mutations (which she absolutely wouldn’t even if she wanted to, the cat is literally spayed), I am happy, that the owner adjusted to her cats needs and is taking so good care of her.

Perfectly said and oh so true!

My two are from there!

@@feiryfella Bless you 😻❤️!

My family got our own panther much the same way, save for the husband wanted nothing to do with ending the kittens lives and instead brought on of the pair to us. Good news is he also apparently ended up divorcing the horrible woman and we got a wonderful furry friend for 17 years

That's a wonderful idea. I hadn't thought of large birds of prey. Excellent suggestion, I must say!!
