Our injured kitties

A while back, two cats were brought to the shelter with horrible injuries. Once had been seen by a vet at some point as he was wearing a cast on his leg but the other, we are not sure.

After quite some time at the vet, the second cat needed his leg amputated, and the first one needed his tail amputated but they are doing really well.

No before photos are they are horrible to look at, but a video of them happily playing the other day

Cats are such tuff animals. I'm always amazed at what they can make it through. That little white one is too cute!

I love your siggy. It is all too sad but true!

I should change that, the black kitten was finally adopted

Awwwww, Peter and Casper are just precious, especially Peter. I love watching him attack the scratching post. I am really glad the black beauty in your siggy was adopted.

Casper is such a doll! He doesn't seem to be bothered with missing a leg! I would totally adopt him!

Oh, my doodnezz! Another 3 legged white cat. He and Trace even share having lost the same leg.

Trace says he'll never miss it. And I tend to agree; with trees, toys and exercise, Trace is now the fastest 3 legged ani-mule I've ever seen. (When he's running, all the rear leg does is keep his butt off the floor)

He doesn't seem to miss it and they say he was up and about tearing around the vets within a day of the amputation.

Peter on the other hand is supposed to be on cage rest and not climbing scratching posts, but since it looks like he had his weight off the cast....

for those beautiful babies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And, of course,

It makes my heart ache, but I know they're fine (now!) and going to find great homes.

There wasn't much choice in the matter, it was posted on all their paperwork that they had to go together. We actually had a few people in looking for pairs of cats so it worked out well.

That's great. Two cats are always better than one!

Wow, they got adopted out FAST! You're lucky!

I wish everyone I foster could find a home that fast.
