About Wheelbarrow

Meet Wheelbarrow, one half of a charming duo of tripod kittens. Alongside his brother Tricycle, Wheelbarrow is a lively 3-month-old who has thrived despite adversity. A month ago, these little ones faced a terrible attack by a raccoon, resulting in the amputation of one of Wheelbarrow's back legs and Tricycle's front leg. Fast forward to now: these boys have bounced back beautifully. Their missing limbs don’t hold them back—they dash around, wrestle, climb, and dive into every bit of kitten mischief you’d expect. Both kittens are affectionate, playful, and full of personality. They can be adopted as a pair or separately as long as there’s a friendly resident cat in their new home. Testing negative for FIV, FeLV, and rabies, both kittens are in great health and ready to enjoy life to the fullest. After all they’ve been through, Wheelbarrow is longing for a loving home that can embrace his spirit. Ready to fall in love with this adorable boy? Apply now!
