Purrs Needed Please!
We need some purrs for a kitty in trouble.
You've probably heard of my Uncle Andrew. He's a neighbour of ours and a friend of my humans. Sometimes when they abandon me and go away they leave Uncle Andrew in charge of coming over and feeding me, and he is pretty good at it (except for that time he forgot and I nearly starved but we don't talk about that...)
Anyway, Uncle Andrew has two kitties of his own at home. Lofty is a black and white tuxedo kitty and Panther is a black kitty. They have a cat flap in their door and they like to go out and roam about people's gardens, unlike me because I only go out in my own garden and then only when I am with my humans.
Something sad has happened to Lofty. One night recently he didn't come home at dinner time with Panther, and then he turned up very late that night injured and dragging his left hind leg. Uncle Andrew thinks he might have been hit by a car. Lofty was rushed to the emergency v-e-t and over the last week he has spent a lot of time first having surgery and then recovering. Now he is home being fussed over by his humans and given lots of treats, but poor Lofty had to have his leg amputated and part of his tail too. Although Uncle Andrew says Lofty has already learned how to run around the house on three legs when he is supposed to be resting. So far Uncle Andrew has paid £1300 in v-e-t's bills (that's about $2120 for my Mericky friends) but he doesn't mind the cost, he is just glad that Lofty is still with his family, even though we think he might have used up a few of his nine lives. Uncle Andrew says Lofty and Panther are grounded to their own garden for now, too.
Please send purrs to poor Lofty for a swift recovery as he learns to get around on three legs and purrs to his family who have all been very worried about him.

Hi Eric. We're so sorry to hear about Uncle Andrew's cat Lofty...but very very glad that he made it home, survived the surgery, and is recovering. We know several kitties who have ended up having to have a leg amputated and they have adapted amazingly quickly...it heals much better than a bad break. We are sending many many purrs to Lofty for a full and complete recovery.

Oh poor Lofty! (and poor Uncle Andrew too) We send big, fat rumbly purrs to help Lofty recover. We've known cats adapt really well to having 3 legs - it hasn't seemed to impede them at all.
Get well soon Lofty!
Rumbly purrs

Poor Lofty, we're sending him healing purrs. What a kind and nice man Uncle Andrew must me (apart from neerly starving yoo to deff~ but we wont mention that!) to pay owt for Lofty.
GET WELL SOON Lofty!
GET WELL SOON Lofty!
Oh no poor Lofty.. I am purring my hardest for him.. What pain the poor love must have been in. I am just so glad he is recovering and that his dad felt like he did about the cost.. We are precious and worth it.. Get well soon Lofty Hugs GJ xx
Oh, poor Lofty. He's been through some pain. We hope he heals soon. He is one fortunate kitty to have Uncle Andrew. That's a lot of money he paid for his boy's care. purrs and tail wags.
I am so sorry that Lofty got hurted! I am purring for him to heal up real quickly and feel all better soon.
Poor Lofty!!! We are sending lots of Purrs his direction and to Uncle Andrew and Panther so they won't worry too much. Maybe it would help Lofty to get some nip and feather toys then he could lay on the floor inside and bat at the feathers and get nipped-up :)
Poor Lofty! Purrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Purrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Purrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Purrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

We are so sorry to hear about Lofty's ordeal. We are glad he is adapting and doesn't seem to be in pain. Poor Fellow!
It is best for them to be grounded to the garden. Much safer.
Purrrrrrrssssssss to Lofty!

Oh, poor Lofty. We hope he'll be OK. This is why our Mom is paranoid about us getting out for fear something bad will happen to us!
