We already had a clinic kitten, Simon, and thought she could use company.

That same afternoon, he was up and bouncing around in his recovery cage. We turned him loose, and he took off as though nothing had happened.

He was about 10 to 12 weeks old and his left eye was swollen three times its normal size. It was so swollen he couldn't blink. They had no idea what to do and were asking if we would be good Samaritans and take him in and find him a home.

That one proceeded to swell three times as large as normal as well.

He wanders about as if he's sighted. People ask us, 'Is he blind?' We say, no, he just doesn't have any eyes.

He's got a little kitty sixth sense. He can hear a small rubber ball roll on the floor and bat it back to us. He can hop up on benches and chairs.
