An innocent, white kitten was rejected just hours after birth because her tiny legs were so badly disfigured, she looked like a little pretzel.

She and her two siblings were dropped off at the Kitten Rescue of Los Angeles, California, with their umbilical cords still attached. Pretzel wasn't the only kitten with deformities, but she was the only one who survived.

Sweet Pretzel refused to give up and her positive spirit definitely pulled her through. Eight months later, she found her forever home with Michelle who has devoted her life to making pretzel feel safe and loved.
