Jimmy Jet
We are so glad to report and Jimmie is doing fine now. Thanks to the excellent care at Catcare Ltd with Dr. Samsell where one eye was removed, and the additional care provided by Randi Golub of Cat Nurse on Call and other care by Dr. Maxwell of Oregon Veterinary Referral Service he is on his way to a full and active life in spite of being blind. All of the professionals have given generously of their time and money to make this happen. Catcare provided the eye surgery very generously at cost and gave him the loving care he needed at that time. Dr. Samsell even took him home with her after his surgery to make certain that he was doing well. Randi Golub took him under her wing and provided a safe haven for him while he recuperated at no cost to SCA. Dr Maxwell also provided discounted care and expertise.
He has since had to have his other eye removed and Randi Golub donated the cost for that surgery. She has decided to keep him as a pet. He is one of the most affectionate, lively, inquisitive, and other-cat friendly kitty on the planet.
Thanks to all of the above and to the most dedicated donors who made his care possible. He was worth it!!!!
Addendum to Purrspectives: We neglected to thank Bev McDonald, graphic designer, who created our great poster design for Whiskers and Wine at Sweet Cheeks. Thanks, Bev for your contribution and artistic talent!
