Cecil has finally left the Cat Loft to begin the next stage of his life. His new person, Elizabeth, reports that he’s adjusting well, playing and being his old sweet self. To be honest, the timing was perfect as he was getting kind of cranky after his neuter surgery. His friend Kewpie had been adopted and life in a crate was so over for the gregarious tiger! He needs one more eye procedure and the staples have to come out from his neuter surgery, but there was no reason for him to stay at BARC when a loving home was waiting for him! Judging by the photos, he looks so happy and, who knows, maybe he’s learning to play chess?!?

I’m really glad that Cecil had a successful operation, and found a home. I had a sweet orange girl cat (that I found at about 2 weeks) who also did not have eyelids. Unfortunately, when they did surgery at the Animal Medical Center (this was in 1991) they discovered she also had been born with kidney failure. She lived to be 3, with daily infusions, and was very happy.
I would be happy to contribute a few dollars for his upcoming procedure if it’s needed.

I’m sorry your cat passed, but at least she had 3 good years being loved. Cecil’s last procedure went well and he’s back at his forever home. He hissed at me for the first time when I put him in the carrier for that last time! It hurt my feelings a little, but then I was the one who dragged him to the AMC time after time!
The procedure cost twice what they initially told me, so any and all donations are appreciated. The “Network for Good” link is on the left. Thanks for following Cecil’s story!
