Cairistiona Flatley has always been an animal lover. So when she1a social media post about a two-legged cat in need of a(n)2, she had a feeling that she was the3person to take Rexie Roo in.
Rexie Roo is a young cat who was brought to a shelter in Utah in January 2020. Both of his front legs were4hurt when he was found, and his rescuers guessed that he'd been5by a car. What's worse, the cat's legs were too damaged to be6. Their only option was to remove his front legs to give him a second7of life. Despite his pain and having to8getting around on his back legs, Rexie Roo was always loving everyone around him.
The only9was whether they could find someone who was10to take in a pet with special needs. That's when Cairistiona came to the11! She adopted (收养) Rexie Rooand made him feel at home. She quickly12that he's very food-motivated (驱使), so she used cat food to13him to do his at-home "physical exercise".
"When people tell me I'm so14for adopting a special need cat and that he is lucky to have me, I can only think about how15I am to have him in my life," "Cairistiona said." I 16 him so much, and he has brought me a lot of 17 and peace. I think he can18people a lot about patience and love," she added. "My life is 19because he is in it. I tell everyone he is the20of my life."
