Disabled or not, all animals are beautiful and deserve love. Here are some imperfect perfect pets that will steal your heart with no intention of returning it! And we don't mind!
Alex is an adorable and high spirited pitbull. Sadly, when she was 6 months old, an accident left her hind legs paralyzed. Her owners never gave up on her. After countless therapy sessions and talking with many specialists, her owners came up with the perfect custom-made wheelchair that allows her to live life to the fullest. This is her story!
Photographer Monika Malek wants to change the way people think about disabled cats and show that they are just as wonderful as any other regular feline. Her project is called, "I Am Still A Cat". Monika says: "The goal is to bridge the gap between people's perception of able-bodied and disabled cats. This is my attempt to show people that a disability does not mean that a cat is inferior. A disabled cat doesn't require care 24 hours a day, the same as an able-bodied cat. He eats the same amount. He plays the same way. Meows, as well, and purrs the same," she writes. Via: Pulpastic
Able doesn't have any front legs and Finfin can't use her back legs. They're kind of the perfect match!

This little guy is a testament to all of us for facing life's challenges and overcoming them.
Meet Mercury: a 7-week-old kitten who loves to run, jump, play and wrestle. The only thing that sets him apart from any other kitten is that fact that he's missing his front two legs and most of his toes. It's believed that Mercury was the victim of a weed whacker incident, based on yard work that had been done around the neighborhood. He was taken in and nursed back to health. Despite his challenges, he is able to run and play like most any other kitten!
Way to go, Mercury!
