the "Able" update

for those of you who responded from the "Limerick might be getting a cousin!!! " thread.

the back story: "Able" came into the clinic under the care of a local shelter after getting hit by a car. he broke his jaw and injured his left eye. after surgery to pin just jaw back together a week of IV fluids, and once he was able to eat on his own he was deemed healthy enough to leave, so i volenteered to take him.



"Able" had the pin removed from his jaw and is currently playing with the new toy mouse downstairs. he has adjusted to indoor life nicely and once in a while will got outside (on a leash) to explore the deck and grass. he is now about 8lbs. that is up from 6.5lbs when he came home. he is still blind in his left eye but other then that he is a prefectly normal cat. he eats like a little pig, and has some dog-like tendencies (ie: fallow me around, take food out of his bowl then eat it, and scratch his back leg when i scratch his neck) along with the surgery to remove the pin he recieved update vaccinations, and a microchip (just in case he gets lost). i will periodiclly update you all on his progess and once i figure out how to upload pics you will get to see him too.

thats all for now

actually he was stalking the feather thing you left here for that pic. he hid behind the post before pouncing on the feather thing. he plays with the beads more then he actually scratches it

Quite a lot of progress! He sure looks like a happy kitty now.

I'll move this to Fur Pics.
