I’m Aiden, that’s spelled A-I-D-E-N and I was born in May 2008 to my daddy, Mister Mister and mommy,  Snowball. I was born with four legs but now I only have three and am an amputee. Let me tell you how it happened… once upon a time when I was a stray, my mommy and daddy let us run free because lets face it…we were homeless. Hey, what do you expect homeless kittens to do.  Ok so back to my leg. I was having a grand time running free all over the Burke’s backyard. While playing in the grass I noticed a WAY COOL big swing. I just couldn’t help myself but to explore this GIANT jungle gym. Man I ran up and down,  off and on probably 102 times. This giant toy was DA BOMB!!! My brothers seemed just as curious until we got a little carried away playing. Next thing I heard was a crack! I didn’t realize that noise was my leg so I kept playing but with a small limp.  Sure it was a little sore the first couple days but that didn’t stop me . You know the saying “when the going gets tough, the tough get going.” Well my gitty-up got up and went when my bone popped out of my skin. OUCH, OUCH, and double OUCH! Next thing I know I woke up at the vet’s office minus a leg. I got to tell you, I am so thankful that the Burke family captured me when they saw my injury and right away took me to Dr. Moore at Staford Oaks Vet hospital. Ya know, it’s not so bad having 3 legs, in fact I can do everything my brothers do with little to no difficulties. I am a very stong kitty and will let nothing stop me from loving this life.

If you have a story like mine, I would love for you to email me at aiden@kittiesrus.com and send some pictures too for me to upload. I know we all have stories to tell, come on let’s share!!
