Tail amputation = unhappy kittycat! :{
I wrote something here when we had a couple stray kittens living in our yard. I wrote something again when "Bro," the more feral of the two, was killed on our street -- an incredibly sad day. Since then, things had been going great with Eddie, the grey cat, so I stopped writing stuff about cats, figuring I'd let the one the Universe apparently ( Read more... ) -

Hel is home :-)
Thanks for the good wishes -- he's home, and doing awesome! :D
