Love is Blind

Well … a quick update on my sweet little Jordy man :) :) He is doing exceptionally well as you can see in this photo I took of him yesterday :) :) His fur is slowly growing back over the scar tissue now and he is starting once again to look as handsome as ever :) :) I cannot begin to explain how happy and lucky I feel … and how appreciative I am for all the LOVE that has flowed from those of you that have supported Jordy and I by buying my work and those profits going towards the Jordy Fund :) :) I will be posting some photos on my blog also in the next few days … so keep and eye (no pun intended LOL) on that as well :) :)

Thank you all so very much from the bottoms of our Puuuuuuurring hearts :) :)

I showed my cat Lily(who is very particular)and she said “ROOOOOOWRR’ which translates into there’s nothing sexier than a cat with the scas of a valiant battle,and a look of unwavering dignity and determination in his eye.ROOOOOOOOOWRR” :-)

So glad to hear he is doing well :)
My cat seems to have asthma, so yesterday I bought an (expensive) air purifier for him….not everyone would ‘get’ this, but I thought you would.
Cheers
Leanne.
Craig Shillington in reply to Leeo’s comment, 2 months ago

Awwww Leanne … I get it :D I hope you have taken him to the vet for a checkup too though, just in case? Never hurts to be a little over cautious :D :)

oh Craig, I’m sorry your little Jordy is going through all that! I went back through your portfolio and figured out what happened to the little angel and I have my answer. I am so glad your little Jordy is ok! He/she has a wonderful, caring dad!
Mariaan Krog, 2 months ago

Such a heart warming story! Jordy made a remarkable recovery re your photo! Thanks for sharing your love for your feline friend with us Craig!

What a beautiful portrait Craig! I’m so very glad that he is recovering well after all he has been through. Your love for him shines through every word you write about him.

Janine Hewlett, 2 months ago

Glad he is recovering well Craig!!

I only just heard about this Craig. So glad Jordy is ok now. They do become a real part of the family. We have two cats that ‘own’ the house here. They kindly let us live here. For a price lol.
BillyLee, 2 months ago

My daughter and I have read your whole blog and looked at every single picture of Jordy. Its a great story and he is worthy cat to be give the extra years of life. We have three boys who we have saved from the pound. Cats are special little guys, we have a dog also but the cats are so funny with the things that they do or the poses they make. Thank you for sharing your Jordy with us.
Craig Shillington in reply to GailD’s comment, 2 months ago

Hehe Thanks Gail and I know exactly what you mean about how they let us live with them :) I have 2 cats also :)
Craig Shillington in reply to BillyLee’s comment, 2 months ago
