Dory, a blind nine-year-old rescue cat from Steinbach, has quickly become an unexpected star after her appearance in The Long Walk, the new film based on Stephen King’s work and featuring Mark Hamill. Although she was born without eyes, Dory has learned to navigate the world with remarkable confidence, relying on her other senses to understand her surroundings. That same ability allowed her to deliver a flawless on-set performance, earning the admiration of the director and crew from the moment she arrived.
Before Hollywood came calling, Dory was already cherished in her community as an ambassador for Steinbach and Area Animal Rescue, demonstrating every day that animals with special needs can live full, joyful, and inspiring lives. Her moment on the big screen has now amplified that message even further. Dory’s story has touched audiences far beyond her hometown, serving as a beautiful reminder of resilience, empathy, and the extraordinary potential that lies within every animal—no matter their challenges.
