Chonky cats will be lowered - until the vet rescues him

A wrinkled cat also deserves love.

Pitoe, a 4-year-old British shorthair with a crooked spine and a sweet face, almost euthanized as a kitten, according to its owner. But after being adopted by a generous veterinarian, Pitoe now lives a carefree life that should afflict all cats.

“Pitoe has severe scoliosis, which makes her body much shorter than any normal cat,” wrote a woman named Marie on Reddit. “Because of that, he has grown more in width.”

Marie said that Pitoe, who is now Marie’s grandmother, was taken to her parents’ vet practice as a cat after the pet seller who bought a “bad nest” decided that no one wanted a cat with scoliosis.

“My grandparents – who adore animals – have long wanted cats but are afraid to get them, because they are afraid they will jump over the balconies of their apartments and endanger themselves,” he explained. “My mother realized that Pitoe, because of her scoliosis, might be a very calm cat.”

The doctor stepped in and insisted that the cat join their family, including veterinarians who could ensure that special needs cats were properly cared for.

Now, Pitoe lives a life spoiled by his bodyguards. Marie also started the Instagram page, @PitoeTheCat, for their only cat.

“The owner gladly agreed,” he said, “and a match made in heaven was created.”

Pitoe’s spinal arches prevented him from jumping, “but he can swing, run, play and climb like a pro,” Marie said.

“He was really rotten, honest, like most of the day [my grandparents] at home, “he continued. “So most of their attention is directed to little Pitoe, and he will be happy to receive it.”

Marie later said Bored Panda that his family was shocked by how “he could be playful and active,” and insisted Pitoe was “pain free.”

“He can’t jump at all … and one of his legs doesn’t work, so he often drags,” Marie said. They also continued on a strict diet to help Pitoe maintain a controlled weight.

“But he’s not sick, which is the most important,” Marie continued. He also claimed that anyone who knew Pitoe personally would prove his charisma.

“The first thing he will do when someone arrives is walk towards them and lie on their backs – no one can fight after that,” he said.

Marie hopes that Pitoe’s success story will inspire others to commit challenging crimes.

“It’s crazy to think how close he was to being dropped, and now he is the love of my grandparents – and our whole family – lives,” he said. “Very valuable to give cats with special needs.”

Maestro de Braga is the first Portuguese in the National Symphony Orchestra of Cuba.

Maestro Filipe Cunha, Artistic Director of the Philharmonic Orchestra of Braga, has been invited to conduct the Cuban National Symphony Orchestra, as announced today.

According to a statement sent by O MINHO, “he will be the first Portuguese conductor to conduct this orchestra in its entire history.”

In addition to this orchestra, the maestro will also work with the Lyceo Mozarteum de la Habana Symphony Orchestra.

The concerts will take place on 4 and 12 March 2023 at the National Theater of Cuba in Havana.

In the words of the maestro, quoted in the statement, “these will be very beautiful concerts with difficult but very complex pieces” and therefore he feels “very motivated”.

From the very beginning, Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto No. 2 will be performed by an Italian pianist (Luigi Borzillo), whom the maestro wants to bring to Portugal later this year. In the same concert, Mendelshon’s First Symphony will be performed.

Then, at the second concert, in the company of the Mexican clarinetist Angel Zedillo, he will perform the Louis Sfora Concerto No. 2. In this concert, the maestro also conducts Tchaikovsky’s Fifth Symphony.

“This is an international recognition of my work. An invitation that I accept with humility and great responsibility. I was surprised to learn that I would be the first Portuguese member of the Cuban National Symphony Orchestra. This is a very great honor,” the maestro said in a statement.

“I take with me the name of the city of Braga and Portugal with all the responsibility that goes with it, and I hope to do a good job there, leaving a good image and putting on great concerts. These will be very special concerts because, in addition to performing pieces that I love, especially Rachmaninov and Tchaikovsky, I will be directing two wonderful soloists who are also my friends. It will be very beautiful,” concludes Filipe Cunha.
