Specifically, his heart has an abnormality and is "too big".
It is from this very special trait that he got his name!
A heartbreaking note
When Big Heart was brought to a shelter by his previous owner, the poor kitten had been abandoned with a note reading: "defective". It was so severe that euthanasia was being considered. Fortunately, the director of another rescue group called Love Your Feral Felines heard the little cat's story just in time.
She refused to let him die just because he was different. She then got the necessary permission to move him from the first shelter and give him a second chance at life.
Finding happiness at last
Big Heart was placed into foster care with Heather T. Alongside his foster mum, the kitten is getting everything he needs. She makes sure the little fellow gets plenty of cuddles and his medical care, but she also adapts his play sessions to protect his heart.
On Instagram, we can see that Big Heart plays enthusiastically and loves being held. At first, he was a bit wary of dogs, but he ended up surprising everyone by befriending one of the big dogs in the house.
For now, Big Heart is staying in foster care a little longer before he can be adopted. The rescuers are looking for a forever family who are fully aware of Big Heart's heart condition and can offer him a loving, safe home.
