Description
I found him along side a dirt and remote country road 2 years ago. He was trying to stand and kept falling over...his shoulder was dislocated...his right eye was almost totally closed and infected. I put him in the car and took him to my vet..(I have another cat that is 10 years old named Molly)..the vet gave me meds for his eye, put his shoulder back into place...he weighed 7 ounces..he was so tiny, so frail, and, according to the vet only about 4, maybe 5 weeks old. He said that he would probably have died within 24 hours..dehydrated, starving...so sad..some one had to just have dropped him off there and left him to die.....but now..he is a handsome 2 year old, loved, pampered by me and Molly...and because of his condition and how I found him, he was named Hobo...
