Marik was dropped in the middle of a yard when his mom was moving her nest.  Hes a tough little guy with a determination to live his best life!  Marik has had a couple of physical challenges in his short life, including a bout of aspiration pneumonia.  

Marik is a vocal little kitten who loves to be picked up and held.  He can hold his own with his sister, Marissa, though we think hed prefer a life of luxury and relaxation.

Marik has pectus excavatum, a birth defect where his rib cage does not form properly.  We are currently preparing him for surgery and a chest plate to help him as he grows.  He will need additional splints, but once he is full grown he will not need any more treatment for this condition.
