UPDATE: Seriously Cute Cat Billy Fox Learns How To Walk Again


***UPDATE***

You no doubt remember Billy Fox; he’s just too cute to forget!

While adorable and still getting up to his silly antics, Billy has faced some hardships since we first introduced you to him. Though he’s struggled, he’s a tough tabby. With tons of love and support from his parents and his kitty siblings, he’s getting back on his paws in a big way.

From his adoption, Billy was thought to have a mild Cerebellar Hypoplasia, but, as the original tale of Billy tells, he had no problems with playing and pouncing as kittens do. But as time went on, Billy began to have issues with his gait and his bladder. At 9 months old, he lost the ability to use his back legs.

His parents shared, “His neurologist suspects Billy might have an occult neurodegenerative disorder such as leukodystrophy.”

Such disorders are not easy to pinpoint, but as a strongly bonded unit, Billy and his family would do whatever was needed to help him get back up again.

On His Paws Again

After a long stretch of weeks, Billy took his first steps again!

From those first steps on his own, Billy has been gaining strength from regular play, a healthy diet, outdoor adventures with parents, and tons of love!

But the medical angst doesn’t stop. When adopted, Billy’s tail had two broken spots. His parents learned these tail kinks can be a result of “inbreeding situations that result in birth defects.” Because of this issue, Billy can’t feel his tail and during an intense session of playing with it, “he accidentally chewed the tip of it to the bone.”

Luckily, the injury healed and didn’t require any type of amputation, but Billy wasn’t the biggest fan of the cone!

With his tail healing, just three months after the tenacious tabby started stalking the house again, Billy has made a triumphant return to jumping!

“No matter what life throws at him, he keeps being the most happy and playful cat we have ever seen.”

While he’s had to adjust and face learning to walk again, some things never change. As he did in kittenhood, Billy still bears his fangs in adorable fashion!

“Because he likes to bite us and our other 2 cats, we tell him he is a vampurr.”

Here’s to many more victories on your road to recovery, Billy Fox, you seriously cute cat!

Billy Fox has a mild case of cerebral palsy, which means  he has “a little bit of head tremor, but because I feel safe and loved, the tremors are very subtle.”

Billy Fox also informed fans his tail, while purrfectly puffy, “was broken in 2 places and can’t go straight when it is puffed up. My hooman hopes it wasn’t intentional!” We hope not either, darling dear!
