I've had amazing experiences with cats and I'm super allergic to them, but I loved them so much I tolerated awful allergies just to live them. But my most recent one is the best ever. Just listen to this story. He's such a miracle cat. He was discovered in an alley garbage dumpster pinned down by junk and had dried cement all over him as a baby kitten and a police officer happened to be patrolling the area and heard desperate screeching meows, so he followed the sound and looked in there and found the cat buried in there. So he snatched him out and drove him to the nearest vet hospital, which a relative of mine happened to work at.
His heart stopped on the operating table and then somehow the fucking furball jolted back to life. So my relative ended up adopting him. Since then he's gone through so much. When she had to move, she was gonna take her cats last so they'd be moved into a home with furniture and stuff it would make the transition easier. Somehow he pushed open the sliding closet when they were gone and came back and there were blood trails all over the house he was bleeding for a couple hours. He survived that. He was diagnosed with cancer at 6 and survived that, he's now 10. He has IBD and has to take meds through that and he battles through that. He climbed a Christmas tree a handful of years back and mangled his paw in the lights and survived that. This fucking cat has gone through so much and he just loves life. He's always so happy and excitable and he's scared of everyone except me and a couple relatives. He adores me, I'm his favorite, he always acts so goofy when I'm around him and he always tries to show off.
And he's such a smart cat. I've seriously never met a cat this smart. They have 3 cats, and he always is the only one who figures out how to open every door, trash can, cabinet, etc. He finds the most secluded hiding spots no one can find. And they have this toy where they put treats in a little ball with a hole in it and the cats have to bat it around until the hole aligns with the treat. The other 2 cats would just mindlessly bat it around for an hour and never get the treat, but he hit it a couple times, and then he gets down really low and slooowly pushes it with his nose until the treat finds the hole and the treat comes out. I just have no idea how he figured it out that quickly, he seriously figured it out in like 2 minutes. I love that cat so much he's seriously my best buddy.
Fingers crossed he gets through it ok.
