This story is inspiring, but it freaks me out. A cat who became disfigured after losing her face in a road accident has started to help humans come to terms with their own disabilities.
The cat’s name is Chase; she was left without a nose, eyelids, and skin on her cheeks after being hit by a car as a kitten. Chase now works as a therapy cat touring schools and hospitals to help boost the confidence of people with disfigurements.
Chase has also achieved notoriety on the Internet. Owner Melissa Smith writes a blog on the three-legged cat’s behalf showing how she is happily living with her disability.
