Timmy the kitten was born to a stray cat in a bad neighborhood. He found his way to a local shelter. I fostered him from the time he was a few days old until he passed away. Timmy had been born with a horrible heart defect called a Persistent Right Aortic Arch. He underwent surgery that successfully repaired it. Sadly, Timmy had many other problems that appeared weeks after the surgery. After a tough battle with many internal problems such as liver failure, bone marrow failure and ascites he passed away quietly at home November 6th 2009 at 4:30 AM. He will be missed by many.
