Meet Kevin, the remarkable Russian Blue feline who defied all odds from day one!
He was discovered in a car park at just 4 weeks old, and that’s when his rollercoaster of a journey began. When Kevin’s rescuers took him to the vet, they found out that Kevin suffered from a serious condition that even left the vets skeptical about his survival.
Tailah, Kevin’s devoted owner, recalls those early days as touch-and-go. The situation was far from promising.

During their first visit to the vet clinic, things seemed bleak. Tailah remembers how, when she introduced Kevin to solid food for the first time, he would barely peck at it. His condition was so severe that his head would often bump on the floor.
Kevin had been diagnosed with hydrocephalus, a condition involving fluid accumulation in the brain. This raised concerns about potential seizures. However, fast-forward eleven years, and Kevin has not experienced a single one. He’s alive and thriving!
To ensure Kevin’s well-being, he now enjoys an exclusively indoor life. However, he gets to relish the benefits of an enclosed balcony equipped with a castle, an array of toys, and access to their side courtyard.

Against all odds, Kevin is a playful and spirited soul. He faces each day with boundless energy and an infectious zest for life.
He even indulges in those late-night zoomies around the house, a typical trait of any mischievous feline. Tailah always felt that he would be their little miracle.
She couldn’t pinpoint when her affection and attachment to him began, but she sensed he was a fighter.
