The Corpse

No, he’s not dead, but he does a good imitation of it, doesn’t he? This is Tucker lying on the floor, waiting to be petted. Or photographed by the scene-of-crime specialist.

How they can get so comfy on a floor is always a wonder to me.

HELP PAY EMORI AND JULIEN'S VET BILL

What a brave little soul! We don't know how Emori received such a traumatic injury - the bottom half of one of her back legs had been recently severed. It would have made it impossible to fend for herself, never mind her three kittens, who all showed up suddenly in a residential neighbourhood. Somehow, she had managed to move her little family to the safest place she could find, under someone's front steps. They were all starving. She was young, barely past the kitten stage herself and already pregnant again. Emori's partial leg stump was a painful impediment. Our veterinarian recommended removing the entire limb for the best outcome. The full amputation took place on January 23, 2024, a few weeks after she had weaned her second litter. She is doing very well on her three good legs which, of course, is not new for her. She's had to ambulate that way since her injury in the summer of 2023. Unfortunately, major surgeries such as Emori's are very costly. Your donations helps us respond to the needs of injured, abandoned cats and also for life-saving treatment. Recently one of our foster cats, Julien, suffered a urinary blockage and needed emergency care at a twenty-four hour clinic. The veterinary cost for Emori's amputation and Julien's urinary blockage came to $3,887. Click on the picture to contribute.

A NEW COLLECTION OF SHORT STORIES BY JOHN BELLEN

“The Great War is finished, and the world is at peace again. Conflict has been banished; international treaties guarantee it. Optimism pervades the day, and jazz rules the night; changed morals and fashions have created a new age. But Linus Smith knows that behind the agreements and the conferences, unseen by the carefree public, new forces are rising to take the place of those destroyed in the war. Secret battles are fought in elegant drawing rooms and in deserted alleys. And after four years in uniform, Smith finds that his cloak and dagger still fit him well enough.” Available in paperback or e-book from Amazon.
