Ijeni arrived at Villa Kitty in August 2026 with the lovely Helen, who found her while on a dog walk. Afraid to see she couldn’t move, Helen took her to the vet, who confirmed little Ijeni was paralysed from her mid back down and had limited movement of her front limbs.

Thankfully she was able to toilet by herself and we were so glad to hear that. 

Our Dr Tyas agreed to welcome Ijeni to Villa Kitty to give her the quality of life she deserved as a special needs cat.

Ijeni is only 7 months old, but due to her special needs, it is less likely for little Ijeni to ever find a home of her own. With your sponsorship, you can ensure she continues to receive the care and enrichment she needs to thrive.

Not only this, but your sponsorship will also help to ensure we can continue to rescue defenseless kittens like Ijeni and give them the second chance they deserve. Will you become a sponsor today?
