Cat Clem has a hard time, but despite his own challenges, he has actually been helping others. He had a major impact on his new family, and he even helped other animals in the local shelter for a chance to win $25,000.

Clem is a two-legged tabby cat and one of the finalists in Petco's Love Story People's Choice Contest. The competition has been held for eight years, and adopters can share stories about how their pets have changed their lives in order to obtain an opportunity to provide funding for animal welfare organizations. Clem's family joined their story and now has a chance to earn $25,000.

When Ryan and Lindsay Anderson saw Clem being adopted from Whiskers TNR in Warren County, they knew he had to be part of their family. Whisker's TNR is an animal rescue program that helps prevent overpopulation by trapping and neutering wild cats, and sometimes allowing cats to be adopted. According to an article on Petcolove.org, Clem’s “right front limb, left hind limb at the ankle, most of the tail, one toe on the remaining front foot, and two toes on the remaining hind foot” were amputated because of It is frostbite.

KCCI reported that the Anderson family adopted Clem when they were pregnant with their first child, but unfortunately miscarried. During that difficult period, Lindsay relied on Clem very much, and he helped her through it. The Andersons did not know how Clem would perform in the long term after the operation, but were surprised by his resilience and determination. Their current mentality is "If Clem can survive it, so can we."

The story of the Anderson family has warmed people's hearts, and now they have a chance to get $25,000. If they win the money, the money will be donated to Whiskers TNR, which plans to use the winnings to build new facilities.
