Thanks to Debby and the havahart.
I named him Jeff.
He was rushed right to the vets so I am sorry I didn't get a pic of him.
My vet is Macedon Veterinary Care in Macedon NY
He was not a happy camper in the cage but once out & in the vets office he was the sweatest kitty ever.
Unfortunatly gangrene had set in worse than we thought and to top it off he was FIV possitive.
It was not an easy decision by any means but I decided it would be best to send his lovely soul to the rainbow bridge. It brought tears to everyones eyes at the vets, mine especially. I am still in tears.
He certainly brought a lot of joy during his short stay with me. He was loved a lot during his last days of his life & I really think he knows that. I am grateful that I had the chance to help him.
Prance on sweet Jeff boy. I love you.
I was dissapointed with my vet though, as she charged me full price for everything. I'm NOT saying he was not worth it because he was, but the fact that it cost me $148 and some change to have an exam, combo test & euth. Something has to be done about the vet charges on stray cats but that will be a different post entirely.
The fact that he is FIV+ has made my priority to catch other stray cats become stronger. The trap is set again in hopes to catch a few more male strays, a kitten & a possibly pregnant female and more if they shal come along.
