I have to agree, Birdie is a miracle kitty! He was so terribly weak, and anemic for those first few weeks, and it's actually a miracle in itself that he made it throught that first evening! And then to find out he was so badly bitten up all over his head, and the tongue out of commission for so long...WHEW! He's looking so terrific these days..I saw him today for a quick kiss and snuggle! Took a quick picture of Carla's "kangaroo baby" way of carrying Birdie, and ran out the door. DARN...I forgot to take Birdie with me when I left!
