The pictures are very moving. The first thing I thought of when I read this thread title was Jake Krinkle Snake. And what a worthwhile life you have given to him. There really is no such thing as "perfection" anyway. We are all about diversity, and twists and turns in ways and shapes.
(That's one of the reasons I can never get on with the "dog show breed standard" ideas!)
If disabled animals are supported in ways that they need most, almost all of them can carry on to lead happy fulfilling lives. But I guess this can sometimes be a fine line as it depends on the caregiver knowing what is okay and normal for them, and what is not right or is painful etc.
