Rescue Cat Falls In Love With His New People Who Can't Stop Hugging Him

[@waltersanti]

Hi everyone! First of all, SPOILER ALERT! Don't read this comment until you watch the whole video. So I later learned that this cat was actually one of the cats of the kind old lady in our neighborhood. You might remember that lady from the "Dirty Kitten Gets a New Home" video (from 2017). As you can imagine, I still keep in touch with that lady. I got all her female cats spayed after I met her (Some of them were already spayed but most of them weren't). And then a few more over the years. So I am making sure that the number of her cats don't increase. She still has less than 20 cats that live in and around her house. A few of them died of course of old age over the years. So here is the situation. This cat from the video above was born at late 2019 according to what the daughter of that lady said. And she said the kitten had that shaky walk even since the beginning. So this actually confirmed the vet's theory of "the result of a prenatal disease". And the daughter took the kitten to vet many many times after that. He had lots of injections she said. But of course the walk never really got better. It doesn't have a cure unfortunately. But she said he didn't have epileptic seizures back then. So that's a new symptom that probably started after I found him. So in the beginning of 2020, the daughter returned to her own city which was very far away from here and she didn't come back for a long time. (The pandemic also started back then) So the cat continued to stay with the old lady in our neighborhood. But I've never come across him during my visits to the lady. Because I would have remembered if I had seen the way he walked. So back in February 2021, this cat got lost one evening the lady said. She said he probably might have gotten pushed away by the dogs and then maybe he couldn't find his way back home. So after that, they searched for the cat with her neighbors but they couldn't find him. And some time before that date, the daughter bought her mom her first smart phone and since the lady didn't know how to use it efficiently, she was frequently losing the contact numbers on her phone. Because normally we would talk over the phone at least once in every 1 or 2 months. But when she lost my number a few different times back then, she couldn't call me until I called her again. I explained this in detail because this is probably the reason why I haven't heard about that cat's being lost from the lady over the phone in the first months of that event. Because if we had talked back then, she would have definitely mentioned her cat being lost. And then I could have told her that I had her cat :)) Because since I have never seen a cat with neurological problems in the lady's house, I haven't even thought of mentioning this cat to her. [After that incident, whenever I find a new cat, I call her first :) ] One other weird thing is that I have never walked Walter at such a late hour at night before. But that day I just did. And I came across that cat rolling down a steep road close to our street. It may even be the same night that he got lost, I don't know. But overall, I found him and you watched the rest of the story in the video. And then at the end of 2021, I somehow mentioned this cat to the lady and then the whole thing became crystal clear :) She and her daughter became incredibly happy when they heard that the cat still lives! And they were also very happy to hear that he found that perfect home and family. And we decided that the best home for that cat was the home that he is in right now. Because the lady definitely can't look after him the way his new family does. I now frequently send the photos of Minnav to the lady and she loves seeing how happy he is through the photos! And yes, she is using WhatsApp now :) So everyone is grateful that things turned out the way they did. It became a very long comment but I wanted to share this with you with all the details. Take care! Btw, the daughter of the lady sent me a photo of this cat taken when he was a kitten and I put that photo on our Instagram page. You can check that out here: instagram.com/p/CgEtRB2o6fR/?igshid=YTE5ODU0Yjk= ------------------------------------------------------- Merhabalar. Öncelikle SPOILER UYARISI! Videonun tamamını izlemeden bu yorumu okumayın. Epey bir vakit sonra bu videodaki kedinin, mahallemizde oturan ve birçok kediye bakan yaşlı teyzenin kedisi olduğunu öğrendim. O teyzeyi 2017 yılındaki "Dirty Kitten Gets a New Home" videosundan hatırlayabilirsiniz. Tahmin edeceğiniz üzere hâlâ o teyzeyle iletişim hâlindeyim. Zamanında onunla tanıştıktan sonra tüm dişi kedilerini kısırlaştırdım. (Bazıları zaten kısırdı ama çoğu değildi) Sonraki yıllarda da birkaç tane daha kedisini kısırlaştırdım. Yani baktığı kedi sayısının sürekli artmaması için çabalıyorum. Neyse ki evinde ve bahçesinde baktığı kedi sayısı toplamda hâlâ 20'den az. Birkaç tanesi bu geçtiğimiz süreçte ileri yaş sebebiyle öldü tabii doğal olarak. Şimdi durum şu. Yaşlı teyzenin kızının dediğine göre videodaki bu kedi 2019'un sonlarına doğru doğmuş ve en başından beri o sallantılı yürüyüşü varmış. Veterinerin "doğum öncesi hastalık sonucu" oluşmuş olabileceği teorisini doğrulamış oluyor böylece bu. Teyzenin kızı yavruyu çok kez veterinere götürmüş, çok sayıda iğneler yapılmış zamanında. Ama tabii yürüyüşü bir türlü düzelmemiş çünkü malesef tedavisi yok. Ama kedi onlardayken epilepsi nöbetlerinin olmadığını söylüyor, yani o nöbetler belli ki ben kediyi bulduktan sonra başlamış. 2020'nin başlarında teyzenin kızı kendi yaşadığı şehre dönüyor ve uzun bir süre buraya gelmiyor. Zaten o ara pandemi de başlamış oluyor. Kedi de teyzenin evinde kalmaya devam ediyor. Ama ben teyzeyi ziyaretlerim esnasında bu kediyle hiç karşılaşmadım çünkü bir kere görsem bu yürüyüşü unutmazdım. 2021 Şubat'ında ise teyzenin dediğine göre kedi bir akşam eve gelmiyor. Köpekler tarafından uzaklaştırılmış olabileceğini düşünüyor kedinin. Belki de uzaklaşmak zorunda kalıp sonra evin yolunu bulamamış olabilir. Sonraki günlerde komşularıyla beraber arıyorlar ama bulamıyorlar. O tarihten bir süre önce de kızı teyzeye ilk akıllı telefonunu almıştı. Teyze de kullanmasını tam bilmediğinden sürekli rehberdeki numaraları kaybettiğini söylüyordu. Çünkü normalde her 1-2 ayda bir en az 1 kere kesin konuşuyorduk ama numaramı birkaç kez kaybettiğini söylediği o dönemlerde ben aramadan o beni arayamıyordu. Bunu detaylı bir şekilde yazdım çünkü muhtemelen kedisinin kaybolduğunu benim duymama sebebim, olayın sonrasındaki ilk aylarda teyzeyle telefonda hiç görüşmemiş olmamız. Çünkü eğer konuşsaydık kesinlikle kedisinin kaybolduğundan bahsederdi bana. Ben de ona kedisinin bende olduğunu söyleyebilirdim :) Daha önce onun evinde bu tarz bir sorunu olan bir kedi görmediğim için de ona böyle bir kedi bulduğumdan bahsetmek aklımdan bile geçmedi. Ama tabii artık ne zaman yeni bir kedi bulsam ilk onu arıyorum :) Bir diğer garip olan şey de, normalde daha önce ben hiç Walter'ı gece o kadar geç saatte dolaştırmaya çıkarmamıştım. Ama o gece niyeyse çıkarasım geldi. Hemen peşine de zaten bayırda aşağı doğru arka arkaya yuvarlanırken bulduk bu kediyi. Belki de kaybolduğu o ilk gece bulmuşuzdur orasını bilemiyorum. Ama sonuç olarak kediyi bulduk ve devamını da zaten videoda izlediniz. Sonra, 2021'in sonlarında tesadüfen teyzeye bu olayı anlatırken her şey açığa çıkmış oldu tabii :) Teyze de kızı da inanılmaz sevindiler kedinin hâlâ yaşadığını duyunca. Ayrıca böylesine güzel bir yuva bulmasına da ayrı bir sevindiler. Kedi için en uygun ve doğru yuvanın şu an bulunduğu yer olduğuna karar verdik hep beraber. Çünkü teyze kesinlikle şu anki ailesi gibi bakamaz ona. Şimdi sık sık Minnav'ın fotoğraflarını teyzeye yolluyorum. Ne kadar mutlu olduğunu görünce o da mutlu oluyor. Evet, teyze Whatsapp kullanıyor artık :) Epey uzun bir yorum oldu ama hikâyeyi tüm ayrıntılarıyla anlatmak istedim size de. Kendinize iyi bakın! Bu arada teyzenin kızı kedinin bir yavruluk fotoğrafını yollamıştı bana. O fotoğrafı Instagram sayfamıza koydum, üst paragrafın sonundaki linkten görebilirsiniz.

So you found him rolling down a hill, took him to your incredible, trusty vet, and then the specialist, and then found him 2 foster moms and now he is at peace. No wonder I am ADDICTED to your stories of true attention, patience and kindness. I am so moved by you. And BTW, thanks for the shots of Istanbul and the bridge. You make your fans very happy and thankful for you and your families.

[@ellizaarahim]

Minnav is blessed many times over. Despite being born disabled, he was sheltered by the old lady. When he was lost, you and Walter found him and got him treated, fostered then eventually found a forever home with a family that loves him the way he is. Such a lovely story, filled with difficulty and hope in equal doses with a better than happy ending!

Very true

[@calimero600]

Unfortunately there are not so many animal lovers like these people! There are so many cats and dogs living in the streets, suffering from many deseases and hunger, no vaccinations, feeded with human food which is left over or the rubbish they find in the streets. A lot of animals died last very cold winter because they didn't have a warm shelter. In Istanbul the situation is really horrible. I have seen several dying cats! I tried to help some but there are so many of them and most people don't care except a few angels! One feason is that people think that dogs are unclean creatures because of some religious reasons and they don't want to take them in the house. So "waltersantiindie" are very special extraordinary people!!

[@calimero600]

@@nurtaniaseptatina7224 in Turkey is the same situation like in Greece. MOST cats and dogs are living in the streets without a caring owner, just suffering from one day to another. The situation in Istanbul is so horrible and is getting worse, because most of them are not neutered and they become more and more. There are just a few people who help like "Haytep". Last Winter a lot of cats died because they don't have a warm shelter. A lot of people think they are "unclean" creatures ( religious reasons) and that's why they don't put them in the house.

[@hannamccarthyh]

Sir, I’ve been moved by all of your wonderful rescue stories, but this one truly has had me in tears. That poor lad had such hurts and challenges, and such great vulnerability. Cats battling against huge problems like this is such a betrayal of their magnificent birthright, somehow! I’m having strenuously to block out imaginings of what might have befallen him had you not found him, but his treatments have brought him to the joyful point where he can get back up every time nature knocks him down. How brilliant it was to see him in all his natty little outfits and comfy lounging spots! (That mad green knitted hat with the topknot should have its own blog) Any animal lover surely recoils at the phrase ‘dumb animals’, owing to the way it’s always misinterpreted, but this story really makes you think about how our animal friends have to depend on us to advocate for them, and give them a helping hand if we can. Seeing this lad feeling so much better, and so evidently relieved to be in the arms of a loving human, is enough to make you weep. Thank you, dear friend in your enchanted garden in Turkey, for all you do in spreading love to cats in need. 💕😽🙏🏼🐾👏🏼

[@sarahcathousecritters]

Absolutely right! 🙂❤🥰

[@2babobcat761]

"He was still sometimes falling down, but he was always rising back up" These "dumb animals"(me cringing & biting my tongue EVERY time I hear) can teach us so much about unconditional love, forgiveness and never giving up hope. From one animal lover to another - well said!😁🫂

I volunteer with a cat rescue in Vancouver Canada and we often have these type of cats. The condition is called Cerebellar Hyperplasia or CH for short and the kittens are born with this condition. Some are much worse than this cat and wobble uncontrolably, while others are not as severe. I loved watching your video and thank you for everything you did to help this cat, and for helping the lady in your neighbourhood who has the 20 cats, I also help cat owners with multiple cats and make sure the cats are spayed and neutered and have donated food. You and your family have big hearts and you are a beautiful soul. Thank you again for saving so many cats…you’re amazing! 🌻

[@runa3309]

I am very touched by videos about disabled cats, because years ago I took in a cat myself that was left behind by its humans and had an accident in traffic. The consequences were immense. Half of her tail died off, she could no longer control her bladder and developed a megacolon. Those were hard times. But she wanted to live and was able to enjoy it for a long time despite everything! We had almost 10 years together before it got so bad that I had to let her go. I wish so much that people would also give these cats a chance. They give us so much in return! ❤

[@Pythonaria]

He probably has CH - Cerebellar Hypoplasia, also known as Wobbly Cat Syndrome. He doesn't know he is any different to any other cat. He is a lovely cat and I thought his second foster would not be able to part with him. So happy he is in a loving home and you were meant to find him that night.

He was very lucky to have such caring fosters and that the second ones became his family. He’s now safe, can get his medication daily and be the happy, spoiled boy that he clearly is. I’m sure your elderly neighbor worried about him and I’m glad that she is happy for him where he is and that she gets to see pictures regularly, like a doting grandma. Live well, Minnav!

Thank you for the details of his life! Thank you for helping him, for finding his home. They can take care of him.

[@Jizzlewobbwtfcus]

Awwww heartbreaking and heartwarming story. Also thank you for giving us all the details running up to the moment of his discovery. You're an awesome person Walter : ]

[@kathy9172]

Minnav has been touched by many earth angels, he may have challenges, but he has someone watching over and blessing him for sure!!

[@dmcfarlane4976]

Thank you for saving him and getting him the help he so desperately needed, and thank you to the family who loves him so wonderfully!!! I love his outfits, too cute and this little guy has the cutest face and cheeks in the world! I had a cat with severe epilepsy many years ago and he would constantly cluster seizure until the specialists found a combo of drugs that really helped (pheno and gabepentin) and he lived a long happy life!

@ D McFarlane Agree, if more in the 🌎 were this kind! Special thanks to all (if not for Walter🐕, he may not have survived by himself. Cutest bunny ever @ 10:27, 🥰 now.

[@dmcfarlane4976]

2babobcat Yes! Adorable bunny!!!!!

ThankYou ThankYou from all the Cats you have helped. They know the day you took them in your care was the best day of their life. ..... My Wife and I have 5 rescue cats and wish we could care for more. We also have a Golden Doodle puppy dog. I hope peace comes to you and everyone in Europe very soon.

[@ASMRTingledPink]

He is absolutely precious. I'm so happy you found him and helped him. I read the pinned comment, and I believe this was fate. Thank you for what you do.

[@Bluesummer-s4o]

I recently subscribed. You were an angel in disguise for this cat on that night. I can't imagine how this little lost one would have survived the street on his own. Thank you for your blessed heart!!!

[@cw460]

Can’t thank you enough for rescuing this precious kitty!!!!!

[@Melody-cp9pq]

He has the most lovely green eyes. He turned out to be a handsome little guy. Glad he has a wonderful home and beautiful people to care for him. And thank you for caring. I wish there were more people like you. I wish the people in the states would care for the animals. We have a lot of good people here. But we need more. Some people have pets but don't take care of them. I don't understand why they have them. Thank you again.

I am so happy he is so well taken care of, I can only imagine how hard it was for him on the streets. Even though he is healthy and well taken care of, it still hurts to watch him fall down.

[@purrmageddon5749]

Your kindness to the helpless little ones gives me hope. Bright blessings to you ⭐️

[@marywooldridge3382]

Thank God for these beautiful humans who care so much for furbabies like this. This boy is so happy to be loved & given a chance to be a cat.😇

[@meridegreis5185]

What an incredible story, thank you for telling us all the details! This is definitely a very lucky cat, he found you on his way, it could have ended really bad for him! You are truly an angel, I know I repeat myself but you do have a huge soul. ❤️

[@pigybak]

What a heart warming story 😻

[@jpromdiph]

A very inspiring story. Thanks for all your kindness.

[@AuskaDezjArdamaath]

He’s got a bagful of love and cuddles in him ☺️ He’s found his people. May he be blessed with long, happy years.

[@bamarazdblubred]

AweSome story. Blessings the Lady and her daughter for caring so much for lost cat, Grateful Blessings to YOU Mr. Santi, And to All who give of themselves unselfishly for the care of many many stray animals. We are Grateful to You, Each and Everyone of you. Thankyou. Much Love , Take Good Care.

[@elizzy8754]

Ahhh, we all love a happy "foster fail" story. With your kind and committed help, plus the so generous fosters, this cat has done very well: lots of cats with neurological problems do not manage to groom themselves or use the litter tray. I wish long life and thousands of cuddles to Minnav.

[@lornaeldon8519]

I had 2 cats who were born with cerebellar hypoplasia (CH) and they had odd walking also. Their mother had a virus when they were in her womb which caused the cerebellum to be underdeveloped and that in turn caused them to have issues with their motor skills. They passed on years ago but when alive they were wonderful loving cats and I miss them. So glad to see your sweet little guy in the perfect home. You can find information on CH cats on youtube. Thank you for all your beautiful stories. They touch my heart.

[@sleepinglioness5754]

What a glorious story and journey for little Minnav to end up in the arms of his very own loving and caring family. So glad these great people had a 'foster fail'! God love you and Minnav's beautiful family for giving him the greatest life. Everything happens for a reason. There are no coincidences in life.

[@TheMimiSard]

I think this is a great story of how you help get cats safe, healthy, and let previous carers know their once-charge is fine.

[@klarakatze]

You are the best advocate for cats ever. And you can really tell from this video that Minnav found the perfect loving home for him😍 . I am so happy. Best wishes for all persons involved: Minnav, his loving family, his first foster home, the vets, the old Lady, her daughter and of course Walter and you💕💕💕

[@johns3292]

You have inspired us with your compassion for these 4-legged blessings. Thank you sir.

[@joanneblack7697]

What a wonderful story. It really does "take a village" to raise kids ... AND cats apparently. Minnav has such a sweet face, and he looks happy too. Thank you to all the hands he passed thru, the vets, the rescuers, the fosters ... and finally ... Minnav, who never gave up. 💓💓💓

[@karenashton5053]

You are such a kind and wonderful person to care for these sweet animals. Thank you for this act of kindness!

[@karenbartlett1307]

Very kind of you to take care of this kitty! And all your others, of course.
