Sunday Cats #80

I've changed locations again; now I'm staying with my brother and his wife. So unfortunately, not so many pictures of my friends' dogs. But they do have cats, several of them. I'm going to pad this out a little though and introduce them one at a time.

We're starting with Ree, short for Tiresias (they have eyelessness in common). Here she is in my sister-in-law's carefully organized recycling.

She was found as a kitten with a massive infection in her eyes. She was originally going to be put to sleep, but when the shelter staff picked her up she started purring and trying to rub against them and they just couldn't do it. So she got some surgery and now she is fine, if blind. She is also enormous and able to rearrange the recycling to suit her not very rigorous requirements for comfort. She's very affectionate and what with her massive bulk her love can knock you off balance.

Dear Bob,



So nice to have you back. Hope things get better real soon. The real Bob and Noodles must miss you terribly,any chance we'll get them back one day?

Aww, Ree is adorable! The girl I used to live nextdoor to--Natalie--had a cat named Opie who was blind. She worked at an ER vet, and someone dropped off a kitten who had been hit by a car, and his face was badly damaged. But he survived and recovered, and went on to have a very happy life with Natalie, even though he was blind.
