"We adopted Klaus today! He has 1 eye, half of each ear, and a partially amputated tail, but we think he’s a perfect handsome baby."
"The info we have is that he was found frozen and with a bad eye on rural farm property. A kind human brought him to the shelter, they operated on him (amputation of ears and tail), eye removal, neutered and vaccinated him and put him up for adoption but they were worried potential adopters wouldn't be able to see past his "looks". My physiotherapist knows we're big cat people she told me about him. I loved him when I saw his pictures, went to meet him yesterday, and brought him home this morning."
