Special Needs.

Born in Tanta close to a family who found other street Mau cats for EMRO. An orphaned stray, she became friendly and hung out in a nearby garage or shop. Sadly, she was run over by a bicyclist, and this dislocated her left shoulder, so she walks disjointed a bit. The shoulder has set that way and the vet thinks she is not in pain and has learned to compensate for the injury. A bit shy, but very sweet.
