Mr. Kitty at the vet
Mr. Kitty is cool as a cucumber while Dr. Dorsie has left the room to research his eye condition. He has no idea what "melanoma" is, nor what it might mean for him. He only knows it's so very bright in that eye-because the growth prevents his pupil from slitting ( Read more... ) -
