Everyone, meet Tiny Tim–a kitten who just got his first 3D-printed wheelchair.
Tiny Tim and his siblings were rescued from an animal shelter in South Carolina by the Friends of HCACC, a rescue group who save abandoned, abused, and unwanted animals. The rescuers then noticed that one kitten, Tiny Tim, was paralyzed from the hips down. And because of his condition, he couldn’t walk.
Tiny Tim’s rescuers want to help him walk. So they contacted a group of experimental tech creators called SubProto to make a custom wheelchair for the tiny kitty.
These wonderful people were able to create the cutest little wheelchair for Tiny Tim. The design is not yet final as they are still tweaking it. But just look at how adorable Tim is with his new wheelchair!
