A kitten named Big Heart, labeled 'defective' due to a large heart, was rescued from euthanasia and now thrives in foster care.
Kitten with enlarged heart abandoned
A kitten named Big Heart was abandoned by his previous owner, who left a note labeling him "defective" due to his heart being described as "too large." The owner considered euthanasia for the kitten because of his condition.
Rescue by shelter director
The director of a shelter called Love Your Feral Felines intervened after learning about Big Heart. She obtained the necessary authorization to transfer the kitten to her shelter, offering him a chance at a better life.
Foster care and care routine
Big Heart was placed in a foster home with Heather T., where he receives the care and affection he needs. Heather ensures he gets plenty of cuddles and adapts his play activities to accommodate his heart condition.
Kitten’s progress and socialization
On Instagram, it can be seen that Big Heart plays enthusiastically and enjoys being carried. Initially wary of dogs, he has since formed a friendship with one of the large dogs in the house.
Seeking a permanent home
Big Heart remains in foster care for a while longer before he can be adopted. The rescuers are seeking a permanent family that is aware of Big Heart's heart condition and can provide him with a loving and secure home.
