MASSAPEQUA PET VET in New York has just under 4000 likes on its Facebook page – but that hasn’t stopped it becoming the centre of a viral sensation this weekend.

And it’s all thanks to little Mac the kitten.

He was brought to Pet Vet earlier this week after being found disabled on the street, so they built her a little wheelchair

And the video of him trying it for the first time has been seen over one million times.

“Some of our very dedicated technicians went digging through old toys they had and made him a make-shift wheelchair”

So Mac is finally able to run now, and the first time he tried it out he was motoring along.

“We love this little guy and can’t wait to see what the future holds for him”

Due to public demand – and the fact that you couldn’t quite see his face on the video – the guys at Pet Vet had to upload a little Mac selfie

They have high hopes for his future:

He does have feeling in his hind end which is a good sign and we hope to rehabilitate, treat and eventually find him a good home.

Good luck little Mac.
