Meet Stumpy - now renamed Blue! This photo is from tonight when I picked him up at the vet after his surgery. He had most of his horribly abcessed tail amputated, a neuter and tattoo. The cuddliest kitty ever! He has gone home to live with Doreen, the lady who told me about him. And her kitty Stella, who is being introduced slowly. Via Crazy About Cats at Facebook

YouTube user Kittycatty999 has uploaded videos and told the story of a recently rescued cat originally called Stumpy, and now named Blue.

Blue lived outside for over two years but showed himself to be entirely tame after he was rescued when some good-hearted people who noticed he was suffering.

Kittycatty999 trapped Blue as a VOKRA rescue and got him medical care. Blue is now being well cared-for as he recuperates and waits for someone to give him his forever home.

Stumpy, now Blue, was rescued after living outside for over two years with a horribly infected, abscessed tail. The residents [who noticed Stumpy’s plight] were very concerned but couldn’t find anyone to help. Then they heard about VOKRA, Vancouver Orphan Kitten Rescue Association, of Vancouver BC. After trapping him I found that he was completely tame. I took him right away to Peace Arch Vet Hospital, where he started treatment that night. The next day he had his tail mostly amputated and was neutered and tattooed for identification. Here he is getting his tail bandaged while receiving cuddles from his adoring vet technician.

Ed. Note: Blue was adopted into a loving home.

Blue loves the scratcher:

December 26: Sweet Blue, aka Stumpy, drools over the scratcher, which is laced with catnip. He enjoys the pampered indoor life now. He is available for adoption from VOKRA cat rescue:
