Due to his delicate condition, the rural animal shelter had no choice but to request medical assistance through their social media. Unfortunately, Rexie Roo’s front legs had to be amputated, as it was very difficult to save his limbs due to his severe fractures.
Best Friends Animal Society, decided to help the feline regain his life, so he took him to his rehabilitation center in Salt Lake City.

His incredible way of quickly adapting to his surroundings and recovering only left his adoptive parents in awe of his will to live. The shelter decided to document Rexie’s entire recovery process on Instagram, in order to help him find a forever home.
But his cute story of overcoming not only made him a beautiful final home, it became an example of inspiration. Cairistiona Flatley, in those days she was planning to adopt a cat to keep her pet company, and Rexie was the chosen one.

Cairistiona told Bored Panda:
I had never adopted a special needs animal before, so this was my first experience.
Rexie Roo now has a carefree, comfortable life; he is very happy and does all the activities of a normal cat. Her mother realized that Rexie was very influential on the internet, so she continued with her Instagram to keep her followers updated.

I hope his story can show people that all animals deserve love, even if they look a little different or move a little different. I wouldn’t change anything about him.
Rexie Roo has a particular way of walking and jumping, but he is still an extremely affectionate and loving cat with his family.
Caisitiona added:
Rexie Roo is named for walking like a t-rex and jumping like a kangaroo. He surprised me so much the first time he jumped on my bed! If he wants something, he seeks it!
The cat in a tuxedo is really special, but not only because of his physical appearance, but because of what he has managed to generate in people’s minds.
