Well the little guy I found in the middle of the road is doing ok --not great--but ok.
When they got him all cleaned up they discovered that he had completely lost one eye but they think the other will be ok. He has a severe upper respiratory infection and needs lots of TLC so we are keeping our fingers crossed. At first I thought he had been attacked by a hawk or a crow but the vet thinks he had such a bad infection that his eye never developed. Poor little guy had such a rough start but he has a wonderful home now with lots of love and round the clock nursing. The nurse that adopted him still has to help him eat but he purrs constantly!:tounge2:

I'm glad this little chap has found someone to care for him. Hopefully he'll now lead a long a happy life.

Good on you for rescuing him!

Thanks for the update. I'm so happy this little one has a shot at life, and a very good life at that. Even though you may not get the immediate rewards, the snuggles and purrs, you are definitely this little guy's angel.
