MILOU
Uploaded
to Flickr on 3rd June, 2007.
Milou belongs to one of my neighbors in my apartment complex. I hadn't seen him in a while, and today when I saw him, he only had one eye! I'm not sure what happened, but his left eye was stitched shut, and he also had some shaved patches on his legs, probably for IVs and such. Poor kitty.
One thing that has always amazed me is how adaptable animals are. The hardest thing about bringing a pet to the vet is that you can't communicate to them that you're trying to help them ("No, Enzo, the guy putting a tube up your butt is trying to help you!"). All they know is that they're surrounded by strangers poking and prodding them, and when they wake up, they have no eye, or no leg, and yet, given time, they're good as new.

Yeah, I asked my landlord about it, and apparently Milou just got some plant matter stuck in his eye and it got super infected so they had to remove it. :( But he's bounced back really well and seems pretty happy.
