help. Tabby healed well but, unfortunately, she will never 昀氀y again. Instead, she
will receive life}me sanctuary with others of her kind at Bat World MidCi}es.

Bean was rescued aver being found orphaned. The 昀椀rst couple of weeks were
rela}vely normal for li琀琀le Bean. He was a ravenous eater and adored his frequent milk feedings, oven falling asleep in the palm of a caregivers hand aver
his meals. However, it wasn't long before it became clear something was a bit
di昀昀erent about Bean. Despite appearing to be a perfectly healthy pup, he wasn't
growing. He went on to
develop normally but
remained undersized.
At 6 months old he has
昀椀nally grown, although
he will always be smaller than his roostmates.
Thankfully, he appears
to have no health
problems, he's just a
runt. His small size will
likely cause issues for
him in the wild so }ny
Bean will receive life}me care at Bat World
Sanctuary.
