Los gatos no han dejado de ser reyes del internet y para muestra, Rexie, un minino de tres años que ha cautivado Instagram por su lengua.

Según su dueño, Rexie no espera a que alguien le tome una foto para sacar la lengua, muchas veces lo hace de manera involuntaria. Tiene una discapacidad en las patas que le impide moverse como cualquier otro gato normal.

#TongueOutTuesday gotta be Rexie's favourite day of the week 😋

#LearnAboutRexie A lot of people assume that the only proper way for Rexie and other cats in a similar condition to walk is using a wheelchair. But in fact, it's the other way round. Unlike dogs and a number of other animals, paralysed cats do not need a wheelchair to move around better and have a good quality of life. Most cats do feel better living as they are, without any additional object that we think might help them. Two-legged cats by no means are different from the normal ones, except for being slower and clumsier at times and having no ability to jump. But they do perfectly fine with those two legs they have. They're agile and mobile enough to do their daily cat things and if you put the cat in a wheelchair, it would limit those capabilities. So if you have a cat with rear end issues but who's moving around without any trouble, I would recommend letting him/her live as they are. Buying a wheelchair would be just a waste of money, learnt by the first hand experience. In case you're wondering where I got a wheelchair for Rexie, I bought it from a Ukrainian company Frakishtak. They make high quality custom things for special needs animals and ship worldwide. Just Google the name and you'll find them easily. To prevent sores or wearing fur off of a paralysed waist down cat that has to drag their feet as they walk, a drag bag can be used as an "alternative" to a wheelchair. Rexie doesn't have any issues with that so he doesn't have to wear one.

Rexie ama la cámara, por lo que con frecuencia encuentran el momento ideal para retratarlo.

When you can't get through that one funny joke without laughing every time it's brought up 😹
