Uncle Fester
His x-rays show the life of hell he had endured
Sponsored by Mary - Thank you! Sponsored by Megan - Thank you!
Blind Gender: Male Approximate age: Arrived From: North Carolina Arrival Day: August 2018 Uncle Fester spent his life trying to stay out of the way of people who might do him harm, cars, and other dangers of life for a blind cat. This was his story, until he came to BCR in 2018. By the time a good Samaritan had alerted someone about this poor cat who had been looking for food, he’d been through so much. When he got to BCR, he had many wounds and a broken leg that had healed incorrectly. It’s most likely that Uncle Fester lost his sight due to an untreated upper respiratory infection. When we took Fester to the vet for his first thorough medical exam, his X-ray revealed that he had been shot at close range with bird-shot. Those pellets are still visible under his skin. Although they aren’t painful, they are there as a reminder of his past. However, Uncle Fester’s story has a very happy ending! This kind and gentle cat today lives a safe, healthy life full of love and attention. Despite his horrible life on the street and the abuse he suffered, he is now in a place where he will never be abused, afraid or hungry again. He is – in spite of all he’s endured - a very loving cat who still loves and trusts people. Uncle Fester is also a great friend to his fellow BCR cats, always trying to make new arrivals to his room feel safe. All of them like to cuddle with him!

The horrible things humans think is ok to do to an innocent animal. That is bird shot, I would guess from a very close range. We were horrified when we saw the x-ray!
