Tyson has been tough from the start as his kitty mommy pushed him aside because he couldn't suckle & was different. If his human daddy didnt hear about him at work then he wouldn't be here today. Less than a month old, his new human parents bottle fed him daily & washed his messy face ALOT. With his new home he also got many kitty siblings & a doggy sibling. While he loved his siblings dearly, it was also hard to get mommys attention but found a way with his special needs. See, Tyson has a cleft pallate which makes him look like he is missing half his nose. He needs extra face wipes after meals & nose wipes from his snotty nose but his human mommy doesnt mind. He is quite the character & loves playing with all his siblings. He especially loves his buddy, CJ, who never ate cat food & only ate deli meat, liver, cheese & kitty milk. The two of them were like Halloween bookends as they were always side by side waiting for CJ's meals. CJ was a fluffy black kitty & Tyson the orange kitty. Years later, sadly, all his siblings passed on & he is the last one left. He does love all the attention though. Tyson has been diabetic for 6 of his 18 years & also has hyperthyroidism. He is still a tough kitty just slower now. He is well loved & very spoiled. Please vote for this special trooper!
