'Mermaid Kitty' Who's Partially Paralyzed Will Crawl Her Way Into Your Heart

Not even a rough past could dampen this kitty's spirit. Dasha, a 4-month-old kitten, arrived at the Baltimore Animal Rescue Care Services in Maryland last week in awful shape. The feline had been accidentally slammed in a door when she was younger, which the shelter believes, left her partially paralyzed from the waist down. However, the sweet cat, who is not in pain, maintains an incredibly resilient spirit and pulls herself to wherever she needs to go in a unique way. It's earned her the nickname "Mermaid Kitty." The shelter staff captured her movements on camera and it's clear that Dasha is nothing short of incredible.

Watch as the kitten crawls, with her hind legs together to one side, eagerly toward anyone who will pet her.
