However, this distinctive feature hasn’t hindered Fedya at all; in fact, it has helped him gain a whopping 369K followers on Instagram. So, without further delay, take a moment to read about Fedya – the adorable scaredy-cat who is winning hearts on the internet. Learn more about him on Instagram, fedjamerch.ru, and boredpanda.com.
During the initial stages of Fedya’s life, he faced numerous difficulties, struggling with being underdeveloped, frail, and constantly battling illness.
Bored Panda had another chat with Natalya, who shared the early struggles that Fedya overcame. “In the beginning, Fedya was quite fragile. He couldn’t locate his mother to feed himself, so we had to feed him goat’s milk through a pipette. At just one month old, he quickly grasped the concept of using the litter box and would navigate around the room to reach it, following the walls as a guide. It seemed like the walls helped him understand his surroundings. As he grew, Fedya attempted to jump onto the windowsill to go outside but struggled at first. It took him nearly a year of practice before he could successfully make the leap. Climbing trees is also a challenge for him, and even after a year, he still had difficulty jumping onto the bed, opting to climb up with his claws digging into the blanket.”
