Pet Of The Week

Bambi

The tabby kitten named Bambi was featured in the Daily Pilot when he was just

4 weeks old. Feline specialist Dr. Elaine Wexler-Mitchell diagnosed Bambi with a rare congenital birth defect called flat-chested kitten syndrome.

Community Animal Network is happy to announce that Bambi is flourishing and has been gaining weight and playing with his siblings. He should be able to live a normal life.

Operating an animal rescue on limited funds is very challenging. Our rescue efforts are directly related to the donated funds available.
