So yeah, yesterday was a bit of a writeoff for us bloggingwise, so I thought I start today with something simple. The cat above sleeping soundly next to our compost heap, which is in the process of being overturned, hence the mess, is not actually one of ours. Instead he’s a semi-stray we’ve dubbed “hecdad”, as he looks like Hector, our little tripod cat, cat father. We thought he was a proper stray, but somebody must be taking care of him since he does have a collar and such. It’s just that they don’t take proper care of him: he’s coughing, has trouble breathing, very skinny and alays hungry.
So we’ve taken to feeding him ourselves, though we can’t really take on another cat. Any candidates for a cat that needs a lot of loving care and, to be honest, some proper vetinary treatment?
UPDATE: the pet ambulance people have come around and taken him with them. I had to hand him over; he was very skinny but purring like a mad thing. I hope he can be cured and somebody nice will take him in.
