All of his teeth removed? That’s very sad. I guess all he can eat is soft food?

Actually he eats both....this cat was basically on his own so vet said looked to him like he probably ate mice and birds as his muscles and bone structure were solid. His foot pads were calloused and one of the indicators the vet used as to how long he’d been on the streets.

He’s a tabby cat so very smart for a cat....which has been a pleasant surprise. But he’s not an attractive cat by any means...you can see his face has had many a fight wounds and one of his ears points the wrong direction....vet also said he had been hit by cars as he has nerve damage...

At any rate the cold snowy night I found him under my grill cover , all wet and pathetic looking...he just melted my heart so I brought him in without hesitation. Fed him tunafish and made a fluffy blanket bed for him until the next day when I bought everything a cat would love. Then off to the vet.

Because he was implanted they would not treat him...so I told the vet I wouldn’t tell anyone and gave my phone to the tracking company if someone called for him. Learned that because the owner left no current phone number nor address they forfeited their legal right to him if they did call. It’s been three years so he’s mine anyway.

I went past feeling sorry for him as he made it so easy to love him, as much as one can love an animal. He knows every sound I make ....I think he checks on me as much as I do him! Ha! And he’s such a gentleman cat....never demanding....just that sitting tall glare they can and do give you.
