I have not ever had an eye removed in a personal pet, but it is not an uncommon procedure. If Trooper is in pain, he will feel great relief when the eye is gone. Cats do very well with one eye and you should not notice much of a change in his behavior once he heals. Personally, I would keep him...
This all sounds very promising and they will be friends in a short time. The new boy really wants friends and he may have become used to having them given the number in the house where he lived.
I am not trying to diagnose your cat, but the seizures I have seen in cats were not confined to pawing at the face. There was more of a loss of consciousness/awareness of surroundings, falling over, stiffening, and drooling. Seizures are complicated and those are not the only symptoms though...
I agree that it may be from some kind of injury. I have known humans who suffered some injury to the scalp which resulted in a slight change in hair texture and color.
He just wanted his own person and I bet the other cats who lived with him did as well. It also might reflect the fact that Bruce did try to interact with them as much as he could.
Someone around here was ordering McDonald's French fries at about midnight as I found mis-deliveries on my front patio three times in the morning. The receipt gave the time of the order. I finally got McD to look into it and deliver to the right person.
I am very sorry that you are facing this urgent situation with Boots and I do understand what you are saying about having extreme financial constraints. We can’t tell you, however that this is a minor episode which will pass. It is possible that there is some kind of an infection and it is...

The two cats were just startled to even find out that the other existed. No harm done. That is a great idea with fur and I should consider that for the birds.
I am so sorry for your sudden loss of Willow. The fact that you allowed her to retain her feral personality while living as your companion is the best life that any cat could ask for. She knew that you loved her and understood how lucky she was.
It is the same here in a definitely non-rural area. So many cats need help everywhere.
I also have wildlife around and feel the same sense of relief when I realize that I don't have to adopt another one. We are all on high alert for foundlings and I once had to stop a young man from trying to...
