Is it possible that the cat is being treated? Being well-fed, clean, calm and not in obvious pain makes me think maybe he's ALREADY been rescued and is on the mend.
Mind you, I'd also be freaking out at the sight of the poor little guy.
Wild monkey love or tender Sarah McLachlan love?

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Strix - did you give DH the jacket? What was his response? Inquiring minds and all that.
My elder cat is snoring up a storm. She doesn't normally snore. I keep looking around cause my brain just won't compute that the noise is coming from her.

My old Koogie cat had an open sore on his side for a couple of years. We took him to the vet a couple of times for it, put the collar on him and everything, but after treatment the thing would keep reopening. It didn't heal up until we moved, and it was apparently an allergic reaction to something in the old house. Not as drastic as visible bone, granted, but Koogie managed it all with lich-cat aplomb. That's the incident where we decided that he was actually dead and couldn't be bothered to fall over just yet.

I HAVE given DH the jacket, and he looks awesome in it! I told him I need to take pix and post, because...well, BECAUSE.
Guys, I WANT to type more, because I Have Stuff to talk about, and I want to communicate about Your Stuff, but it is taking me forever to type, so forgive laconicness. My right hand has pretty much been numb for 3 weeks and my constant right arm pain and stomach excruciating pain attacks are 99% pos...GALLBLADDER attacks! Of which I have had 4 multihour attacks since this summer.
So...I pretty much am going to have an organ sucked out soon. Which is DELIGHTFUL on top of everything else, since I haven't even, yanno, started therapy yet. And can't work. And we're broke. And am phasing off Xanax and Ambien.
Life challenges, let me show you them
So, I am terse in my keyboard responses, but know in my head, I am all full of feels and sympathy y'all.
Poor doggies and kitty and people = a lot more words in ma head.

Hugs to you, Strix. That's a lot on your plate.

We should come up with a code. But not emoticons. Ummmm, ~ma would cover everyone who needs it. Yes, would be a lengthly agreement with whatever is being discussed. Ummmm, ok, I suck at codes.

Thanks, all! Hee, Suzi! I am a total blabbermouth (via keyboard) so not being able to do more than a hunt'n'peck is KILLING. Plus, TYPOS. ARGHH. AGONY.

Compassionately intolerant
What sj said.
Strix, that is so, so much.
My optimism says that having the offending organ vacuumed out will improve a lot of things for you. May it be so.
