Born with only one eye and a malformed jaw that caused him to have a snaggletooth, Willie stood out from the other kittens in his litter — but when cat lover Kristen first laid eyes on him, she knew they were meant for one another. Kristen thought he was adorable and gave him a forever home!
Despite his physical differences, Willie is healthy and happy. Kristen shares her bed with Willie and they snuggle to sleep together every night. The two are clearly devoted to one another. Kristen wears a necklace displaying Willie’s baby snaggletooth; and he not only checks on her frequently while she’s at home, but waits by the front door for her return anytime she leaves!
Kristen and Willie’s touching story proves that animals with disabilities can be just as loving and loyal as any other pet. Too often, prospective pet parents pass up on the opportunity to adopt a faithful companion because of perceived “imperfections,” which actually give the animal more character. Willie demonstrates that beauty comes in all shapes and sizes — sometimes, even with one eye and a snaggletooth.
he is so cute…i love the tooth it is unique!
So adorable! My dog has a huge lump on his head (a cyst), but we still love him!
Who are we to judge any creature by his/her looks or imperfections. We are all imperfect. As I always ask someone who has just purchased a “purebred” dog or cat, “So, tell me–how does your dog/cat like being owned by a mutt?” We are all mutts with imperfections in looks, personality, etc. And, by the way, Willie is gorgeous!!
I have rescued many animals over the years but the ones with disabilities always have a special place with me. They seem to need you more. ALWAYS REMEMBER BEAUTY IS IN THE EYES OF THE BEHOLDER.
???????????? Kristen & Willie – two beautiful beings who found each other ????????????
Willy is just adorable. An Earth Angel sent to teach us compassion, and spread LOVE
What a wonderful story! I’m glad there are still some good people in this world.
little angel of mercy
Wonderful woman to have taken Willie in. Thank you, Kristen, for seeing beyond the disability and into the heart of this precious kitty.
What a beautiful and heartwarming story. Never judge a book by its cover. May Willie ans Kristen have many happy years and adventures together.
Ne dit-on pas que la beauté est intérieure !
Willie is an adorable kitten and I thank you for sharing your story.
Il est trop mignon
Il est trop mignon!
This is beautiful
What a beautiful kitty and a beautiful story! They are very lucky to have each other!! ❤️
I love this experience. Willie is beautiful. This is so true, their little differences is what makes them special.
Thank you for sharing.
I had a beautiful rescue dog that had a snaggletooth because he had been kicked in the mouth in his former life. 🙁 He was charming and the most intelligent dog I ever – EVER – rescued. He was more special than any of my other doggies and I still tear up when I think of him. I had to put him down 6 1/2 years ago to kidney failure. The perfect pet does not have to look “pet show perfect” to be the perfect best friend.
Just beautiful — thank you.
