I knew immediately when I scrolled on his baby pic who this is! And look at those tiny clipped claws--and big bat ears! Beautiful "now" pic-- looks like he posed for a logo of a big brand ;) January is, and has always been, one very distinctively gorgeous, handsome cat!!!:redheartpump::runningcat::redheartpump::loveeyes:

Minnie was a kitten we found in the street at 5-6 weeks old who had severe eye ulcers in both eyes and couldn’t see.


the day after finding her

Minnie’s 1st vet visit her eye became very swollen and we were told there was nothing we could do to save it but needed to wait because she was too little even though there was a chance it

The very next day her eye ruptured she either had to have emergency surgery or be put down. The vet said that she would more then likely not make it out of surgery alive but we decided to try! (I thought this would be my last chance to take a picture with her)

We got the call that she made it out of surgery and was okay! This was when she came home

When her stitches came out. Her other eye was looking better but still weren’t completely sure about it. We also found that minnie was infected with worms and had to get that treated

Thank you, thank you so much for saving Minnie and for getting her to the vet to have her eyes taken care of.

She's such a beautiful cat! :heartshape: :heartshape: :heartshape:

Thank you for posting this heartfelt story. She looks so relieved and happy now. My I ask what is going on with her long pink claws?

I'm so glad Minnie was found in time, and was strong enough to survive the surgery. She's a beauty. Thanks for saving her.

What a heartwarming "tail" and she is so beautiful! You are fortunate indeed to have her in your life (but then you know that).

This is my little guy Rory. We found him in a park filthy, emaciated with an ear infection, eye infection, chest infection, liquid diarrhea, fleas and worms. Now he is a healthy energetic kitten who loves to cuddle, sleep on my shoulder and annoy his big brother
Thank you for saving Rory :clapcat: He's a cutie!:hearthrob: :redheartpump:

Welcome to love, comfort, joy, and good care, little Rory! He's very cute. Of course. He's a kitten! You know, of course, how fortunate you are to have him in your home and heart! :redheartpump: :vancat::redheartpump:
