Mickey, One eyed boy from Marilyn Street, Now a Canadian Citizen

Marianne, who adopted Mickey, the one eyed long hair orange and white cat who was in dire straits when I first met him, just sent me another photo of him. Mickey now lives in Canada, with a former clown, who is a teacher. Mickey weighed in at barely five pounds and was on deaths door when I netted him. An eye, infected with herpes and then a bacteria, ruptured. I had seen his blood streaked side as he dashed out of an old car he slept in. The next morning, I netted him. His eye was removed courtesy of donations from the likes of Mike and Linda, a Portland couple I've never met. I named him after Mike and Linda. Originally I called him "Miklinda." Now he's just "Mickey" and a happy cat at that!
