Boo Boo, the Cat of the Day
Name: Boo Boo
Age: Four years old
Gender: Male
Kind: Cat
Home: Malaysia
 
   Boo-boo is a rescued stray cat that we rescued about four years ago from being eaten by a giant lizard. At that time he and his sister, Poncho, were little kittens about one month old. First we rescued his sister, Poncho, after we heard her loud cries and we found her inside the big drain being bitten and dragged by the lizard. Poncho suffered multiple deep injuries on her body but survived and now is an adorable, healthy and full-time in-house cat. We soon noticed Boo-Boo's eyes had serious problems and by the time we got him to the vet, it was already too late and the vet told us that Boo-Boo had an eye disease in both eyes and might go blind, even if treated. The poor kitten's eyes got worse each day until he ended up losing both eye balls.

    But nowadays, Boo-Boo is one of the healthiest, most lovable and active cats at our home and despite his blindness, he knows how to find his way all over the house. He'll find the food source, and is cleaning himself regularly, playing, running and able to climb the roofs and jumping all around like a normal cat. He knows that we love him very much and always greets us when we came home from work. He prefers a belly rub and likes to play soccer with his human parents. We have to crumple paper into a small ball and throw to him and he come will running with it like he is playing soccer. Of course we have to play with him, as he can't see and depends only the sound of the crumpled paper.

    Boo-Boo is an incredible cat and we are glad we had saved him years ago.
