A few months ago, a vet nurse and pet fosterer named Jessie took in a pair of feline siblings from The Kitten Inn in New Zealand. She noticed that although the six-week-old kittens came from the same litter, the male was about two-thirds the size of his sister. Widdle, as he came to be named, was the size of a four-week-old kitten.
Jessie quickly discovered that the tiny kitten has an enormous heart. Widdle took to Jessie immediately, and her shoulder soon became his favorite perch. He accompanies her to work almost daily, where he also makes himself comfortable on the shoulders of her colleagues!
When Widdle is old enough to undergo testing, the vet will try to determine the cause of his unusually small size. He’s now 17 weeks old and the size of a seven-week-old kitten. Although Widdle’s growth remains slow, he appears to be happy and healthy.
Widdle brought so much joy to Jessie that she decided to give him a forever home. This sweet story proves that a lot of love can fit into a small package!
God bless you for your generosity of heart, good things will come to you.

Thank you, Jessie, for being such a kind and loving person to cute little Widdle and offering him a home and your love. You are such an angel and I wish nothing but a good and fabulous life for you and Widdle filled with joy and happiness. May God protect and guide you.
Awwwwww Liddle Widdle is just as cute as ever one could be! Thank you Jessie for loving Widdle and giving him a lifetime of love and devotion…..I know he gives it back in return! Bless you both!
‘Widdle?’ I think the eight month old version is asleep on my shoulder now. They seem to sense a softy a mile away and plot their conquest. We never really stand a chance!
In the midst of all the mean, EvilAsShitlical crazy, overwhelming our every day with its insatiable gaping darkness, these ones are worth their weight in light!
I’m so glad everyone has a happy home. I wouldn’t have been able to let Widdle go either. How could you resist that sweet, loving little face?
I am very happy the sister kitten has a home too !
So very happy you have a home, Widdle !
Glad a nice home is found for you, Widdle, Thank you !
Widdle is just adorable. He can perch on my shoulder any time <3
We took in a dumped mother who thanked us that very night with six kittens. Five are just like mom Kewpie – cobby body and a healthy weight. Little Gracie weighs in at only 7 lbs – almost half of her siblings. Who knows why.
Amazing Gracie has become my diabetic alert cat – untrained. She checks me out every morning, and if my sugar goes too low during the night she bites my nose until I get up. My Little Hero.
Maybe Widdle is just an angel here to spread joy, and smiles.
Glad Jessie became a Foster Fail 🙂 Many happy years to them all.
Interesting — so so cute — as long as he’s happy and healthy — it would be nice, though, to learn WHY the small size.
I and my ex-husband had a family of cats when I was in my 20s. First was Pooh Cat an all black female, smallish but a normal size. She had a litter, we gave one away and kept Tutu a little tabby girl, smaller than Pooh Cat. Then Tutu had a litter, and we kept two of them, Nerkie, a gorgeous intense large-normal sized grey tabby who was a mighty hunter, and Girla so named because she was a tiny girl and a very sweet girly character. Girla was smaller than normal. We didn’t really think about it, we were too busy working and trying to keep up with 4 cats. We asked the vet about her mini size and he said that she was likely a dwarf, a genetic throwback similar to the smaller humans who are sometimes born to normal sized humans. She was normally intelligent and playful, quite a gentle soul who read our every move.They were all so beautiful, I loved them so much, still often think about them and still miss them.
Shoulder Kitty ? wonderful word ja Kitty of coarse
What a little cutie pie. Thanku Jessie for adopting him.
