Nothing missing here. I'm perfect, just as I am.
Nike ... named after the Goddess of Victory.
Terribly battered before 6mo old, lost an eye, has a pin in one leg restricting flexibility. Someone had surgery done and dumped her at the pound. A woman pulled her on kill day and brought her into a house with too many cats, upper respiratory not being treated. She was moving cats from room to room as they got sick, then having them put down anyway. I went over to try and clean up some of her house, felt something barely touching me. This little thing was nearly dead from starvation (too congested to smell food and so would not eat), less than 3 pounds, wobbling weakly on 3 legs, reaching, tapping me, begging and her meow stuck in her throat. I couldn't save them all but I went home, got a carrier, came back and took her to the vet. She got a shot for fever and he told me to look for baby nose drops and doctor one nostril. Did that and by the time she woke from the shot, she was ready to eat.
What a spirit! See why I named her Nike? She has taught me what enjoyment of life is all about. She is now 14.
