“A group of robotics students in Colorado teamed up with a veterinarian to devise a life-saving solution for one crippled kitty. The cat, Flipper, suffered a spine fracture that left her unable to control her hind legs, making it impossible for her to get around, and putting her in danger being put to sleep. After running through a few models, the ‘Blitz Robot’ club at Conifer High School assembled a two-wheeled ‘cat cart’ that secured Flipper to a harness while allowing her to use her front legs to push herself without further damage.”
