So subtle MA!

But I agree, more pics would be great.

I have no digital camera. I don't have any 'new' pictures of him. Sorry. Lady who took all those lovely pictures moved away. My brother said he would ship me his old digital camera, but who knows how long that will take. MA you could always just show older pictures of him? He still looks the same.

Well they are older- but here they are:

Good luck with Starlight(Lovely name) he really is beautiful and cleaned up he'll look like a million $$. What horrible people dumping him like that though.

Sam was so right in her assessment, when this cat cleaned up, he sure looked like a million bucks!

I actually cried when i read the original post, it makes me so angry to think there are people out there that think they have the right to treat these beautiful creatures so poorly and cruelly, i'm so glad that this story had a happy ending and you are a true hero to the cat world for all you do for them.

that cat looks in horrible position i hope you get him all cleaned up and he also looks like a persian to me.

 

[hissy]

Sweetie, he has been cleaned up for over a year. He is in a new home and happy as a clam.

I had total knee replacement Jan 3, 2006. Starlight had to go stay with my friend. He is having a wonderful time. He's taking turns chasing a Pomeranian around the house. I felt I just couldn't coup with a walker & him too. As it is, some of my parrots are terrified of my walker. Surgery went very well, but recovery has had some set backs. My whole leg is very swollen & I have cellulitis. But Dr. thinks we have rounded the corner recovery wize. I have lots of pain at night & Starlight slept with me...so I figured I needed to get over that part.
While I was in Hospital & Rehab I was worried he might get out the door(I had 4 pet sitters to take care of my minagery). So right now he's sleeping on a kingsize bed with a lady who thinks he's wonderful.
Hopefully he will come home soon.

 

[hissy]

I wouldn't give him back!

I am glad to hear from you Debi and sorry to hear about your surgery. I have a friend that just had that done, and he entered into a rehab center for 8 weeks because of the pain. Take care of yourself and that scamp of a kitty!

good to hear hes doing so well

 

[lillekat]

What a gorgeous boy!! I missed all the pictures, but didn't he scrub up nice?!

 

[firefly*21]

I'm glad that he is doing good! Just found this thread and was Shocked at how he first looked. Such a transformation!!!

 

[pui hang]

MA, bless you for being the angel that rescued Starlight. There were tears in my eyes when I read your end of the story page. Starlight looks adorable in the "after" pictures. Debi you are a lucky mummy!

 

[huggles]

hope your recovery goes well Debi - give that handsome boy a big kiss from all of us
