Babies, puppies, kittens—there’s really nothing cuter than the innocence of new life, and who hasn’t wished they could stay small just a bit longer?
If you have, then you’ll adore this sweet little guy.
Meet Munchie, a seven-month-old kitty who still looks like a tiny kitten and weighs less than 2 kg. This adorable appearance is due to a rare condition called hypoparathyroidism, which means Munchie will remain “kitten-sized” for the rest of his life.
Munchie was rescued by his mommy, Emily Tomlinson, when he was only three weeks old.
The tiny kitten was taken in by the Wolverhampton veterinary practice after being abandoned and Tomlinson, who works at the practice, decided to adopt him.
Apart from his dwarfism, Munchie is also afflicted with cloudy eyes which gives him quite a unique appearance but thankfully does not affect his eyesight.
However, Tomlinson theorizes that his cloudy eyes were the reason why Munchie was abandoned by his previous owner.
For now, they just have to hope for the best. And little Munchie can be safe in the knowledge that he is in the best possible hands; his mommy is ready to do everything she can to keep him healthy and happy and she did not think twice about spending about £2,500 on Munchie’s boxing-day emergency treatment.
It’s evident that Munchie is incredibly loved and we’re sure that he’s going to have a very happy life with Tomlinson.
He’s a very cuddly and playful little guy and despite his small size, he’s got a big heart and a big personality. Tomlinson appreciates every moment with her little sweetheart and knows how lucky she is to have him in her life.
It’s clear that this little kitten is exactly where he’s supposed to be and we’re so happy for both Munchie and Tomlinson.
