VIDEO: Adorable Paralyzed Kitten Runs For First Time With Help From Wheelchair

MASSAPEQUA, N.Y. (CBSNewYork)-- An abandoned kitten was able to get moving for the first time with the help of some vets and a make-shift wheelchair.

Little Mac was brought to Massapequa Pet Vet by a good Samaritan after he was found abandoned by his mother and unable to walk.

The doctors and staff managed to dig through some old toys and make Mac his very own wheelchair to allow him to run for the first time.

Although he is still unable to move his two hind legs, vets said Mac has feeling in his hind end which is a positive sign. Vets hope the little guy will rehabilitate and eventually be placed in a loving home.

"We love this little guy and can't wait to see what the future holds for him," Massapequa Pet Vet said.

For everyone who wanted to see Mac's face up close.....here is a selfie of the little speed racer????❤️????
