Hello i am new here after my niece gave me a link as she thinks i may get some help and advice on here.
I have been disabled all my life with something called 'Hemi Hypertrophy' (1 side larger than the other) and my mobility hasn't been great all my life - even more so since i had a fall in 2018 and shattering my hip and femur
I have 2 cats - Lucky (9) and Sooty (3 1/2) and both are rescue cats
I live with my dad (mum passed away 5 years ago) and we look after each other but i do find that my mobility and other health issues (got fibro and CFS and Addison's disease to name a couple) i struggle in getting around the house now
Anyway enough of me thought i would say hi and hope to get to you
