About 🥘 Scramble 🥘
Scramble is a very special little girl! She was born with a congenital condition called Pectus Excavatum, which is a narrowing of the ribcage/sternum that can be fatal without surgical intervention.
Information about the condition and the surgery Scramble had can be found here - http://www.kittenlady.org/pectus
Scramble’s surgery was a success and she is now a normal, happy kitten with a nice roomy chest. There is no reason to think Scramble will have any ongoing issues, now that her sternum is a healthy shape, but obviously should she ever need surgery for anything, the vet would need to be aware of her previous corrective surgery and of course we will provide her medical history to her new home.
Scramble has an aversion to being held. We suspect this is a result of her being born with insufficient space in her chest to breath freely therefore she found the extra pressure on her chest uncomfortable and while this is no longer the case, her instincts are still and may always be to avoid physical restriction of her chest. Despite this, she is an extremely affectionate girl who will sit/climb on you, sleep with/on you and absolutely loves people and attention! She is great with other friendly cats and small friendly dogs and adores her gentle 6yo human foster sister (and her toys!)
Scramble has the loudest purr we’ve ever heard and all it takes is for you to look at her, to set off her melodic and soothing rumble! Scram is honestly one of the gentlest and well-behaved kittens we’ve ever met. She wouldn’t dream of scratching or biting and is happy to just snooze in a window rather than getting up to mischief!
