Bernard’s story is a kitten picked up on the street in California. Thanks to the skillful owner, the kitten can now live an everyday life and move around with the help of a unique construction with wheels.
When he was taken to the local shelter, one of the employees, Jennifer, decided to take him home. The woman named the kitten Bernard.
After Bernard was shown to the vets, it was discovered that the kitten’s hind legs might not be immobile due to a congenital disability but a dislocation. The baby also had bladder problems – he could not go to the bathroom alone.
In the first few days, the kitten surprised his foster mom: despite his sore paws, he tried to run, play, and explore his new home. Jennifer immediately realized that this baby was not going to give up!
Jennifer armed herself with the wheels of a toy car and built a structure for Bernard to move around. When the baby got his new “wheels” on, he was unstoppable!
Jennifer recounted, “The second they put the wheels on him, he raced around the house as if he’d always had them on. He immediately circled the whole apartment, happy!”
All the following days in his new home, Bernard diligently proved that he could do everything the other kittens could.
According to Jennifer, Bernard’s paws are gradually getting stronger; he can already move one of his paws. In the meantime, this lump full of energy and love continues to enjoy all the joys of cat life, no matter what!
He made many feline friends. He became excellent friends with a cat already living in his new home.
Lily’s mom said, “Bernard has brought so much joy to our family. He is a determined little kitten, and we are lucky to have him in our lives.”
Bernard is a true example of resilience in the face of adversity.
Bernard’s story is an inspiration for never to give up, no matter what obstacles life puts in your way.
