To celebrate black cats during the month of October, we are donating to 3 shelters that are caring for very special black kitties! Unfortunately, sometimes it is difficult for black cats to find homes because of the silly negative stereotypes surrounding them.Gato was found laying in the road in Cedar Rapids following some unknown trauma. His right eye was swollen shut, and he was bleeding from his mouth. Turns out his upper jaw was broken, as well as the rim around his right eye, which eventually had to be removed. It was touch and go for awhile, since he wasn’t eating well due to the jaw trauma. But several surgeries and lots of pain medication later, he has recovered nicely from his physical injuries. He’s eating fine and now we’re working on socializing him a little more. Gato is rather timid, but will let you approach and pet him if you do it slowly. He’s not real social with the other cats in his room, but neither is he aggressive. We think with time Gato will gradually come out of his shell and be an essentially “normal” one-eyed cat. His rescuers went to great lengths in getting him promptly treated and probably saved Gato’s life — he really deserves a forever home now. Poor Gato! I wonder if he realizes how lucky he is to be cared for by such an amazing shelter! Witty Kitties Inc specializes in caring for cats that really need it. They have FIV and FeLV positive cats, as well as cats with physical impairments such as Gato. It really makes us smile when we see a shelter that cares for kitties like Gato. Thank you so much, Witty Kitties Inc! We are very happy to say that we are sponsoring Gato’s food, shelter and health care for a full year with a $250 donation!PLEASE CONSIDER DONATING TO THIS WONDERFUL SHELTER!See all of our past donations at our site!
