Sometimes the four-legged, furry creatures at MDR are the hardest working among us. This month we honor Fanta Cook, a lovely girl who has overcome big challenges!

Fanta, aka Fanta Claus (at Christmas time), is a 3 year old little girl whose current favorite toy as you can see in the picture is her tunnel. She had a rough 1st year of her life as a few months adoption we were told she had a genetic issue with her back knees and would need surgery on both. So, her first year was a challenge trying to recover while just wanting to be her kitten self. The surgeries went well with 2 titanium rods put in her back legs. She is now living her best life as a cat doing her favorite things – running, jumping, causing daily mischief, and talking to the outside birds and squirrels!
