Gordon
was knocked down and then run over by a number of cars in a Kent country
lane. When
a cat lover, on a day trip to Sheerness, came across Gordon, she picked
him up and thought that he would almost certainly need to be put to
sleep because of his injuries. She
took him to a local vet who worked a miracle and soon got Gordon on the
road to recovery. Nobody reported him lost, so when Gordon was well
enough to leave the vets, the day-tripper, Val, of Sevenoaks, went back
to Sheerness to collect him. She paid the vets bill and had Gordon
neutered and then brought him to Anim-Mates. When he first
came into Anim-Mates care he used to climb the walls with fright, vomit
with fear and soil where he stood. His road
accident injuries meant his bladder did not function for some time so it
had to be emptied manually. He is now left with a harelip, a wonky tail
and blindness in one eye. Gordon is a real
hunter. Every day he brings mice of all sizes to his fosterer’s door.
He is much more happy indoors these days, curled up on a fur rug or next
to another cat. Sadly he is still terrified of new things and new
people. Gordon is in the
Anim-Mates Care for Life scheme
