Note: A true tale of Perseus, a rescued black cat. He suffered a bite, probably from another cat, this became infected. The owners couldn’t catch him at first and he was deteriorating fast. At last, they managed to get him to a vet. He was injected and kept in the care of a local cat charity until he had finished a course of medication. He refused to eat and was dying. His owner spoke to him on the phone and he recognised her voice. He began to recover. He was taken home and was euphoric, yowling, rushing up to be stroked by the members of the family and be reunited with his litter brother! Looking better than ever now at age fourteen.
