scampering home - brenda

This is Gollum, my SPCA rescue kitty who almost died earlier this year from cardiomyopathy plus renal and liver failure. He lost 5 of his 14 pounds owing to anorexia during the critical weeks of his illness, but later regained his appetite (obviously). He's five years old and feeling much better now.

Good capture Brenda, looks like he recovered very well and now needs to do this more often! :)

Gollum is looking good for sure! I'm very glad he is fine, I knew you were pretty worried about him. When they get sick, you just have no choice but to do what you can to save them. I like this shot of him doing only what a healthy body can do, climb stairs! :o)

I have a "waddler" too. It is very interesting that the front paw is still down as the back paws come up. Interesting study in motion, Brenda.

Looking at her/his size it looks like My sisters cat (7,5 kg). Very nice catch and nice take to the theme.

Cute indeed. He (she) looks like the exercise is needed! Love it!

Fat chompers she's got. Up in a hurry. Someone calling for din-din. Cute Brenda

Ascend in deed. his age appears to show here. great catch. Did you hang around for ever to catch him. great catch sometimes implies you were just lucky but I did not mean it that way.
