Willy is back from surgery! Such a happy boy! This kitty has been through so much, but his affectionate nature is still strong! He looooves to be brushed, loves snuggles and head rubs. The UW veterinarian called him “perfect in every way,” and temporary foster Anna confirms that he is irresistibly lovable.

Willy can finally breathe freely! Willy had surgery to repair his damages larynx, because he had trouble breathing. In the video, part of what you hear is power purring, but his breathing is audible even when he’s not purring. That will gradually go away (or mostly) as the swelling goes down.

9 Lives Rescue is still accepting donations to help cover the cost of Willy’s surgery. A very specialized procedure, this surgery was especially costly. Please help if you can, by donating here. Thank you.

Sterling had five kittens this morning: four girls and a boy. Mom and babies are doing well!

Bottle feeding kittens is in full swing at 9 Lives Rescue! We so much appreciate our fosters who give up sleep to keep the babies fed! On the plus side, they get to watch their little kitten ears wiggle as they nurse. That’s a dose of happiness right there.
