Gelato the Kitten’s Wheelchair Journey | Portland Maine News
Description
Meet Gelato, a tiny rescue kitten with a spinal injury that left him unable to use his back legs—until a creative team at Cincinnati Animal CARE built him a custom cardboard-and-Hot Wheels wheelchair. As standard wheelchairs were too big, they took it further, designing 3D-printed wheels tailored just for him. His story has gone viral, spotlighting the love and innovation shelters pour into animals with special needs. Gelato’s progress is astonishing—he’s even standing briefly on his own. With adoption just weeks away, he may soon outgrow his wheels entirely. His journey proves that with care and ingenuity, even the most challenging cases can blossom into heartwarming triumphs.
