Purr request

I found this on a forum I frequent; it was in the 'off topic' area.

It's a bad situation, but the dog owner is trying to make it right.

The poor kitty could use the power of purr: (copied directly from the
post)

Hey Cat lovers, I'd like to humbly request that you call upon whatever
deity you can relate to in whichever manner you relate to help a cat
that my dog Bodhi attacked today.

My girlfriend and I were preparing to take our dogs to the vet when they
flew the coop and took off out into the neighborhood. While on the lam
Bodhi and Mikey apparently found a big fat Tabby and Bodhi shook it real
good. After nearly breaking my neck crossing a barbed wire fence and 40
feet of thick briars I got to the cat that was floating half dead in a
creek. I jumped into the creek and tore my dog off the cat and lifted
the cat out of the water, I wasn't sure if the cat was alive at this
point. The dogs were'nt giving up yet and Bodhi kept jumping at the cat.
My girlfriend finally got down to us and was able to distract the dogs
long enough for me to walk along a downed tree out of the creek and over
much of the briars while holding the cat. My girlfriend then drove the
dogs back and locked them in the house and then came and picked myself
and the cat up. We headed off to the vet then. The cat and I were both
soaked but the cat seemed a bit better on the way. It began making some
noise and was breathing. Once we got to the vet they took the cat in
immediately and checked for shock and administered some pain med. They
couldn't find any serious wounds and are mainly worried about damage
from shaking such as neck wounds.

I've got THE best vet around. I explained the situation (and that my
dogs had attacked the cat which was not mine) and accepted financial
responsibility for the vet bill but the vet pretty much treated it like
a stray and doing it no charge.


So, please pray for this cats recovery and that it's owner will see my
sign and call me.

Wow, now there's a very responsible person! The jerk who dumped the
pit bulls that attacked Smudge should take a page from him.

Purrs for the kitty to heal quickly *and* to be returned home asap.

Purring for the kitty's complete recover and a return to its home. Purrs
also that its people will keep it inside. MLB

Purrs and purrayers for the kitty to make a full recovery and be reunited
with its slave. Purrs and kudos for the caring, responsible dog owner who
went out of his way to do the right thing.

Kudos to the guy for taking care of the cat (a lot of people would not have
bothered) and mega purrs coming for the kitty to get well.

Purrs for this poor kitty to survive. At least the couple did the right
thing by this cat and hopefully it has a family to return to.

[snip horror story]

What an awful situation for everyone involved. Purrs that the cat
makes a full recovery and that the owner is found, and that the owner
can appreciate that the guy did the best he could in a nasty
situation.

I can only imagine the guilt he's feeling.

Lots and lots of purrs and best wishes for the kitty to recover
completely. It's good to hear the dog owner took the kitty to the vet
immediately.
