This update is for those of you following the story of the sweet little black and white cat named Oreo, who became badly injured after seeking warmth by sleeping in the engine area of a car. At least this is the Vet’s theory based on the cat’s injuries. The owner of the cat is disabled, and does not have the resources to pay for the cat’s care, so my dear husband (DH) is paying for all the treatment.
This weekend, Oreo’s back leg was amputated, and now he has recovered enough to be discharged later today. DH Joe will drive Oreo back to the owner, who lives in the next town over, but I think he is going to offer to adopt this sweet 3 legged feline. We feel that Oreo should be an indoor cat and will need follow up care. I will let you know whether we get a new kitty or not.
Thank you for all the wonderful comments about what my husband did. He is a great guy, a very kind man, and feels he is just doing the right thing and not anything special. In fact, he doesn’t know I have written 2 posts now about his kindness- and would be embarrassed to learn I did.
Back to my quilting studio now. I am almost finished with the Kimono quilt for Barb, just need to finish up some curved crosshatching and SID, and I am done! Hugs from Carla

I hope she lets you adopt the kitty — Orea deserves a good warm/safe place to live. Joe is such a wonderful guy. oh boy almost finished — I can hardly wait!
Great news to hear Oreo is on the mend – big hugs to DH 🙂 Hope you get to adopt.
Hugs to you and your DH – mums the word! We will never tell that you shared the story of his kind, caring and generous heart. . . If the owner isn’t able to keep Oreo indoors, I truly hope they will agree to let her come and live with you. I cannot imagine a better fate for such a lucky little feline!
