Reed came to us as a victim of Hartz Flea Products that you buy over the counter. It took a lot of TLC to turn around the damage done to this poor boy by a well-meaning owner. But he has far exceeded his original timeline the vets gave him. (7 months if that). That was 8 years ago.
Here he is fleshed-out and healthy and beautiful and ready for his forever home. He was found yesterday, sleeping on the roof where he loved to hang out, in his final sleep. He defied all the odds and survived massive poisoning from a product that was supposed to help cats not harm them.
Poor Reed. But what a life he led, all borrowed time that you gave him. Eight years of affection and good living that he would not have otherwise had. Godspeed, Reed.
Farewell, Angel Reed. Your last nap, in your favorite napping spot.
Godspeed and tailwinds west, dear Reed. What a remarkable story, what amazing spirit and love to have overcome such adversity and lived so long.
