His exam

• The kitten was surrendered to our care and taken to our vet clinic: Basinview Animal Hospitalwww.basinviewanimalhospital.com

• There, the hospital team examined the kitten and xrayed him to make sure there weren’t any broken bones.

His hospital stay

• The kitten was kept at the clinic for observation and in no time had wrapped his paws around the hearts of the staff.

• The staff named him Tiny Tim… or Timmy for short!

Timmy’s exam

• Timmy’s exam included xrays to make sure he didn’t have any fractures or broken bones.

• The “injury” turned out to be a twisted spine, likely a birth defect. It was decided that Timmy would be taken to see a veterinary neurologist to assess the situation with his spine.
