Aww... what happened to his legs?

Edit: Clearly @Hellsadvocate appreciates crippled kittens.

His front legs have a deformity and they're being splinted to straighten them.

I'm conflicted. Poor thing must've gone through something horrible to get those.

But at the same time it's just so insanely adorable I cannot.

Birth defect. He recently got his casts off and he's able to walk on his stubby little legs. His back legs are still deformed. @kittycrusaide on Tiktok has the video.
