My first post copied here guys and I will jump right in. (sorry not sure where to better post it)
We know someone who has 2 munchkin cats that gave birth to the cat below. She is now 8 months and is/was quite ill. She however is now at the vet and being treated and recuperating. The reason she was not brought sooner was the owners were in the hospital for a few days because their son had to be hospitalized and the sickness started while they were spending time at the hospital.
The cat needs a home but I have a few concerns firstly. The pictures further below show the cat in better health so I was not concerned initially but when I saw the cat in person I was a little disturbed due to its ill health.
I am worried that this cat could potentially have some genetic issues, does anyone here have any knowledge regarding this? Or is the cat just very sick looking and will heal nicely?
Both parents are munchkins and another breeder said his limbs were a little large or body is small but shouldn't be an issue. I don't mind taking this cat in however I am worried that it could potentially have health problems in the future.
Can anyone help regarding this? I can provide more information as best as I can.
Thanks & Much appreciated
