Molly Lichtenwalner, who has anxiety disorder, recently had her anxiety exacerbated due to a car accident. Knowing that, in the past, the thing that has helped to calm her anxiety more than anything has been cuddling with her furry friends.
She did not currently have any pets, however, so she decided it was time to adopt one. When she met Otitits, a cat with no ears who was abandoned by his previous owners, Molly bonded with him immediately. She used to care for a deaf puppy, so she already knew how to handle animals with special needs. Molly took Otitis home with her, and he has repaid her many times over.
Otitis suffered from cysts in his ears.
It required surgery to have his ears removed, which left him deaf.
Molly Lichtenwalner found him in a shelter where his previous owners left him after his ears were removed.
She has anxiety disorder, and thanks to a recent car accident, her anxiety was even worse than usual.
Molly knew the right pet would help to ease her anxiety.
She knew as soon as she saw Otitis that they were meant to be together.
Otitis loves cuddles, and enjoys snuggling with his new owner.
He’s still very curious for an older cat.
Otitis is her owners most effective stress reliever.
The two are inseparable.
