But I keep telling myself he's on the way to better health and happiness and the real traitor is whoever let him get to this state. He has some wounds on his back (probably from fighting) that have been oozing for a little while - I noticed drops of blood around the feeding station a couple weeks ago, which actually made me cry. At least now he can get the medical attention he needs. Oh, I named him Memphis, after the capital of Ancient Egypt.

Anyway, my incredible wonderful fabulous husband deserves some props in this. He's always so supportive, but today he actually played hookey from work so that he could help me. Off to go give him a big kiss.....
YEAH TO HUBBY!! SCM, you are doing such a wonderful thing!! I'm so glad that u were able to get both kitties...great job!!

Get there, no one home. Radioed da boss and proceed into the backyard. There is a cat, ovioulsy freezing, hungry and terrfied, with not even a wind break or away from other weather elements. It was placed right in the open. Man I was peeved.

He was adorable though. A rolly polly guy. He wasn't a stray...or if he was, he had it like a king.
