Meet Anakin! Ani is a two legged cat, born without a pelvis or back legs but that doesn't stop him. He is full of love & life! My family and I rescued Anakin and I am caring for him. My family and I are lifelong animal lovers and will give Ani the absolute best possible home, love and care. I post updates, photos and videos of Anakin on his website, Facebook page, Twitter, YouTube and other online sites.

New Video! ~ Anakin Running & Climbing The Cat Tower
In this video I'm answering a few of the questions most asked about Anakin. Can Anakin Run? Why doesn't he have Wheels? Does Anakin Climb well? How does he get down from where he's climbed? This was just to get a little video of Anakin running. I do not usually make him run unless he wants to. All of my kitties will run for Treats and as you can see Anakin runs great! Right now, Anakin gets around just fine without wheels. Wheels would hinder his ability to climb his cat tower and his freedom to go where he wants to go in our home. When Ani runs he holds his behind up off the floor. It looks like his backend is hovering when he runs. We will definitely get him wheels when he is older if he needs them. Anakin would never be able to climb his cat tower dragging wheels behind him. He is very happy to be able to climb where he wants to like the couch, chairs, our bed, and of course his cat tower. Anakin hops down from wherever he has climbed with no problems at all.

Wow he is agile. I would say he doesnt need wheels and can see how they could be more of a hindrance but then, if his movements puts stress on parts of his body like his spine or shoulders Im sure he will get them.
ReplyDeleteHe can run really fast! Hope he doesn't need wheels when he's older,by the look of him I don't think he will.
ReplyDeleteVideo is great!
As I posted on FB, this mighty guy is now Kitty Hover Craft when he runs. Isn't he the greatest kitty! It takes a lot of smart to solve his challenges that he has. Smart, beauty and sweetness, what a combination! Love, hugs and purrs, Kathy
