Occurred March 2013 / Mantova, Italy

My cat's name is Michele and he's three years old. I adopted him when he was just two weeks old and everything was fine. Suddenly, his health started getting worse and in the turn of a month, he was paralyzed. Therapy wasn't successful and no one seemed to understand the origin of his condition. A highly specialized vet visited to look at him and achieved a miracle. He diagnosed Michele with feline dwarfism, a rare genetic syndrome whose symptoms revealed in a very strong form when he had his first vaccination. The acute phase is now overcome, but some important consequences occurred such as his leg bones being disjointed with buttock. His physical growth arrested when he was just a few months old, as the illness arose. Now, he's fine. He can walk and run in his awkward way! He can't jump, but this is not a problem because he's learned to call humans for help whenever he needs to go onto the couch or onto the bed. - Elisa Artioli
